weekend work???

[agalch]

Have any of you ever minded at weekends? Due to circumstances atm i am considering an offer to work 9.30am till 6ish sat and un but as i've never worked at the weekend what would be a fair fee to charge? Don't want to overcharge the parent but i will be giving up weekend for work so have to earn a reasonable amount of money to make it worth my while. I'm in scotland so anyone ever done it?

I used to mind on an occasional Sunday until recently for 2 children. I earnt £80 for the day (9 to 5). This wsn't quite time & a half, but as it was for 2 & only occasionally I didn't worry. I think if it was going to be regular & both days I would charge at least time & a half possibly double time on a Sunday.

I just won't do it - cos I work hard enough mon - fri

But for a special one off

eg wedding/exam I have - butonly on the understanding that it was one off

I think it is in the terms of my planning permission that I only work week days

Have only ever minded at weekends as a one-off for existing mindees. Have charged normal weekday rate, but last time I ever did a weekend was about 8 years ago! If I did it now, would cost parents a fortune because I really value my time-off now, and it would really really have to be financially worth my while (unless it was an emergency, when I'd probably do it for free!!)

my situation atm means although i don't want to work wkends i may have to. my current full time mindee is leaving at end feb and i just found out im pg(not sre when due) so i'm trying to stash as much cash as poss cos i know parents are unlikley to want me due to me being pg.will wait to see if she gets back to me after i told her how much i charge
