Dd has just turned 3. We will using some of her 30 free hours at preschool, but she also attends a childminder.
Are parents allowed to top up a childminder to the normal hourly rate? Dd loves her childminder so much, and we really want to stay with her! I wouldn’t want her to have to take a pay cut of effectively £3 per hour she has dd. I wouldn’t even want to ask!
