DD's nursery has suddenly decided that they will be charging £5 PER MINUTE if you're late collecting your child.
I know nurseries charge for being late, and accept that, but £5 per minute....SERIOUSLY!?? It's ridiculous. £1 or £2 fine, but £5?!
Their excuse is that it is a deterrent, but that doesn't mean that people won't find themselves in a position of having to pay it due to circumstances out of their control (being stuck on a tube for example) - so, for example, I am 10 minutes late, I then have to pay them £50 - jesus!
I feel as though they're taking advantage of us. Any thought?
