After school pick up charges

Just after some ideas please; I've recently asked my cm if she could collect ds1 from school and keep him until 5pm, and she is not sure what to charge for this. School is about a 10 minute walk, collect at 3.10pm, and keep him until 5pm. I hope I can afford it as she has ds2 who is really happy with her.

I just wondered what you cms out there would charge (and do you do reduced rate for siblings?)? TIA

It would generally be two hours pay or thereabouts, some childminders will charge a session fee for after school pickups, others will charge hourly.

Crikey, not much then. Would £10 be fair then, till 5 and no food? (I provide snack)

I charge £13 per evening. This includes pick up, snack, drink, dinner, pudding and care until 6pm.

I do not do sibling discounts.

Oh and I'm in Berkshire.
