Can't see how you did anything wrong. You are probably out of a bad situation so I wouldn't lose any sleep over this. Sounds like the guy has anger issues but that is not your concern. This is not something to hide under the coach for. Just let it go and perhaps next time you will have better clientele. Glad to have you join us. Welcome to CC.

if i'm understanding you, your 'crime' was allowing a baby to sleep too much?
i have 6 children, and didn't know that was a thing.
did the infant have special needs to wake and eat or something?
were you sleeping while the child was awake?
i'm sorry about the way it happened, and you know?
we're all failures! welcome to CC, and may the Lord comfort you.

Since the parent's complaint was the baby was awake all night, I'm going with you babysat during the day. Yes, falling asleep, even dozing, on the job is bad. Especially, as you said later on, since they did give something of a schedule for the baby. Very bad, especially with a baby, because they don't always know to fuss when there is a serious problem. If you feel a doze coming on at work, get up and do something.
As believers, we're called to a higher standard, so a little housework would be nice. (Nothing that requires going into their private areas.)
And, yes. Dad overreacted big time. That's on him, not you. Own your part. Decided what you did wrong so you learn not to do it again.
If you want this resolved to the best outcome, write an apology note and send it to them. Own your part, without bringing up their stupidity. No excuses either.
It is over. Expect nothing more of this. There is no need to keep hanging on to this. Deal with it, and move on. I've been fired twice. The world did not tilt because of that. One time I agreed with getting fired. (The owner did promise someone else my job, so why did he hire me? lol) The other time I didn't, but because I learned what was really going on behind the scenes, my tears earned me an unexpected recommendation for my next job.
Getting fired happens. Getting yelled at happens. You aren't the first. You won't be the last. It's okay, just learn what you need to learn and apply it to the next job.
The dad was an idiot, but he was also the boss. That happens often too. lol

at four months, you'd think you would have a kid on a schedule, right?
nnnope! they determine their own, for the most part. and just when three days have gone by with the same schedule, the baby decides to grow or some such thing, lol, and the schedule changes.
i think sleep deprivation blurred their judgment, and it sounds like he's their first baby?
i'd also like to amend my prior statement. though i did hundreds of hours of child care as a young person, it only taught me about how to care for kids.
i still didn't know one thing about being a parent.
you're gonna be okay. God still loves you.

My husband and first wife had one trained but not the other too. (The other had a bellybutton come off too soon, so she couldn't cry until it healed. Funfunfun. lol)
I can go back to my grandparents and report the same, "all but one." It is doable, but it has to be trained in over the course of months. And, yes, that course includes scheduling sleep during the day to limit needing to get up too often in the middle of night.
