Hi could anyone enlighten me on the going rate per hour for a CM in Hertford? I know it varies but there must be someone on here that knows of any CM's in Hertford, please?! xx

i think the going rate for most areas is £3.50 - £4 per hour, usually including meals. it all depends on the childminder as we are self employed.
if you are looking for a childminder if you log on to the CIS childrens informaton service for your area, they will have a list of all the local childminders.
where is hertford??

kkey21 just looked on CIS and it looks like Hertford cm's charge anything between £3 and £5 ph. So take your pick. I suppose it all depends on how you rate yourself

i believe the cis only update information when the person tells them to, they don not do it automatically.
