I use a CM 3 days per week, this year Boxing Day and 2nd Jan fall on a Monday which is a contracted day, however there is nothing in my contract re Public or Bank Holidays or payment for them.
My CM wants me to pay full fees for these two days, her reason being to make it fair to other parents who will be paying full fees as they are taking holidays. Think they mostly work Public Sector.
CM is not available to work these days, but I do have to work so I would have to pay for childcare twice.
Does anyone know what statutory obligations I have regards paying for these days? Or any advice as to what I should do? Thanks
