CHILDMINDERS CLUB: Attendance Record........

35 replies

HellyBelly · 10/09/2005 16:44

Hello

I started my first school pickup this week and am just writing it all in my attendance record provided by the NCMA.

I charge from 3pm as that's when I leave the house and I have to be at the school for 3.15pm. The mindee gets picked up at 5pm and I told them I'd have to charge 2 hours per day as otherwise it wouldn't be worth it (as the school it a bit away)

ANYWAY.....what time do I put in the record as the arrival time? Is it when they arrive at my house or when I charge my minding from???

Sorry, I always get confused between you too and I've put the wrong name - haven't read all posts actually!

Oh Kcemum, that would be GREAT!!

I'm just about to order some from the NCMA website so can post one back when they arrive. I'll CAT you my address.

I've also got to do a temporary contract for 4 Friday's until the new contracts commence. I was thinking of doing a quick thing on Word - do you think this will be ok for just 4 days?

Thanks again Kcemum, you're a star!!

Not sure about photocopying them, I've got too many as ordered two packs by mistake!

Do you want me to post you one....you can replace it when you get some more?

katymac · 10/09/2005 17:05

I agree with kcemum - if you put 3.15 and she fell ver in the grounds you would be responsible

However if she is out of schol at 3.15 that maybe when you are responsible (iyswim)

My Ofsted has never asked about money

Good point!! Thanks for that!

As for NCMA Contracts, I've just had 2 mums wanting new contracts so I need 3 new contracts in total. I was hoping to do them this weekend but I've just checked and I've actually only got 2 left (didn't realise you got so little in the pack!). Do you know if you can photocopy them (front and back of course) and them at all?

Sorry you should put 3.15 as that is when she comes into your care from school. Never had payments cross checked as it's an individual minder thing.

kcemum · 10/09/2005 17:01

Yes I do use NCMA contracts.

If you put down the time that she leaves school as apposed to the time that you leave then this would cover you if something were to happen in that time, i.e she would be under the schools care and not yours.IYSWIM

I have to be at school from 3.15pm when they come out but she doesn't actually get to my car until 3.30pm so I'll put 3.30pm - I've never had an inspection since minding as only started on 4th July, do they cross reference attendance to payment at all?

By the way, got another question kcemum - do you use the NCMA contracts?

Hellybelly, for my school pickups I put the time that I pick them up i.e 3.30pm as arrival time.
