We have found a lovely childminder who can look after our two year old and also do school pick up for the eldest. what, if any discount would you expect? she already picks up eldest for £5 an hour. thanks

I'm a Childminder and if the sinking is under 8 I wouldn't offer any discount as they are using up one if my spaces of which I only have 4 so could loose quite a bit if money if someone else was willing to pay full price for that space, every Childminder works differently though so it is up to the one you have chosen

I am a CM and I do not offer sibling discounts I'm afraid, I do however ask for a longer notice period for siblings, as they are a greater 'business risk' (ie 2 or more children could leave at once).

I discount for people booking full days (£5 per hour or £40 for a full day's place), so no further discounts are offered for siblings.
