How much would as a childminder would you expect for a childminding a small toddler for 11hours.
I know everyone has different prices but just curious as to what is the average 'norm'

My child minder charges £5 per hour

Sammy867 · 21/01/2019 19:21

We pay £4.50 an hour. That’s with an outstanding childminder (she has a waiting list and needs to turn parents away) and including snacks and meals

It seems like we are being overcharged just because we are in London. £10 is the minimum.

Thanks everyone this is really helpful. Currently I am being paid about £3.50 which I don't think is right.

It’s £40.50 per day 8-6 , and £5 a week for 7-8 whether you use the 7-8 just one day or all week.

I'm in Edinburgh. I can't believe £10 that's amazing! If only it was that much here! Grin

My childminder charges £4.50/ hr - that’s average around here - Central Scotland.

£42 for 8-5:30
£6 an hour for unsociable hours. So £9 + £42 = £51.

I am in Liverpool.

Reccy2018 · 21/01/2019 19:16

£41.50 for 11 hours of childcare? The childminders I know charge £10 an hour.

Thank you. That's good to know. I'm just wondering how much is right to charge!
