Average Childminder Wage South East

[Haily111]

Hello i was just wondering what the average pay (pref. hourly) is for a Childminder?

Thank you

Which bit of SE

Norfolk £3

Central London up to £7 or £8

Watford anywhere between £3 and £6 depending on experience and qualifications. So as you can see even within a small area it can vary

Childminders in my area (Surrey/Berkshire border) tend to charge around £4-£5 per hour, per child. However, this is not the Childminder's average pay per hour - as there are lots of factors to build in, such as expenses. Turnover per hour can at times be £30 per hour or more (with income from over 8's), but there will be periods of the day when it can be £4-£5, or even nothing.
Instead of average pay... are you more interested in average turnover, say per month, per year? Some childminders in my area have a monthly turnover exceeding £2000, but do remember that expenses need to come out of that, so it's not all profit.

Sorry i will explain, i want to leave my dd (will be 7 months when i'll leave her) from 8 in the morning until 6 in the evening for two or three days a week. I was just trying to see how much it is going to cost monthly. And it is in Eastbourne

Thank you

Hi,I am Childminder i SE1 I live next to TOWER BRIDGE and i charge £5 h,£40 a day or 160 a week,anyway I am very flexible....;)))
If someone is interested please call me 07908632011.

I am in Horsham & charge either £3.60 or £4 per hour depending on how many hours are wanted a week, I would say Eastbourne would probably be between £3 to £4 an hour

We're in Bedfordshire and I pay £6.50 an hour for DD and DS together. If it was just DS it would have been £4 per hour I think. Or maybe £4.50

Sorry, no idea on cost in Eastbourne, though from posts here so far you are probably looking somewhere from £3 to £7 per hour.

ChildcareLink alas does not list costings for childminders in Eastbourne - at least the first 10 on the list who had vacancies didn't show a price.

To obtain a list of childminders in the Eastbourne area with vacancies, contact: Kites 0845 601 0777
You can then call a few childminders and confirm their hourly fees as well as what extras may be on top (outings, toddler group, food, nappies etc.)
