Childminders - do you provide the car seat or do you expect the parents to?

I provide my own for the same reasons as everyone else although one of my friends who is also a cm asks the parents to provide the seats.

I provide my own then like FeelingOld said they will fit your own car, plus it would be hard getting 4 children and their car seats to the car every time I needed to go out.

Thanks. Just a vibe I'm getting from my own cm about this...

I provide them then I know they fit in my car, that they are correct for appropriate age/weight and that they are safe ie not been in any accidents.
