how much does a childminder charge?

[nikki81]

can anyone help, i need to know how much a childminder chargers for a day, say from 7.30am to 7pm?

Can you let us all know where you live as that would really help, different in different areas and do you want breakfast/lunch/dinner etc ? what exactly do you need the CM to do ?

youd have to contact your local CIS or go to their website as it varies area to area..im in teesside, i charge £3 8.30-5.30 and up to £2.50 more either side depending on what time.hth

Mine charges £25 - from around 7.45am til about 4pm.

I provide the food and nappies but she does provide lots of snacks and things for during the day.

She doesnt ask for extra money for activities, and she is very generous with buying him wee presents and things. She is lovely.

Also, if i am late she charges no extra.

I am in Edinburgh.

Nursery my Dd goes to charges £125 a week everything included. I'm in NI

I was quoted £60 a DAY for a cm, 9am-6pm, but I do live in North London.

I pay £5/hour plus £1 for each meal - Surrey

I'm in medway- going rate here is about £3.50ph, £20 per day. I include meals in that- not all do.

i pay £10 for 4 hours once a week.i send packed lunch but they supply snacks.its a married couple so 2 x childminders!lovely people.

I pay £4 per hour and that includes meals - Surrey

Think it also depends on qualifications and experience of each individual childminder. Around here, SE London, prices range from £3.50 to £6 per hour.

£3 an hr in south wales for f/t
£3.50 p/t

£3 per hour inc meals and snacks
or £20 per day 7.30am till 6pm after that £5 per hour

I charge £5.50 p/h or £45 p/d. That includes all food and nappies.

Missgolightly- £60 is a lot, maybe I should re-think my rates!!

i charge £4.25 per hour.£3.75 per hour for siblings (full time only) thats in st albans.

blimey mogs where r u based? £5.50 p/h is good!!

I state £4.50 in my portfolio as my hourly rate, but am willing to negotiate down to as low as £3.50.
Current mindee pays £3.85 (which I was very pleased with).

I live near Bromley!

Very lucky with my c/m who charges £3.50 for the 1st child, £3 for the 2nd. Shift pattern on a 4 week rota so some days they are there 4 days, some weeks only 2. Doesn't charge retainer for the days they are not there. Does charge for picking up late.

I charge £4.20 per hour for less than 30 hours per week & £3.80 per hour for more than 30 hours per week. Average around here is £4 to £4.50 per hour, Horsham, West Sussex.

Smeeinit- I'm in West London. A nanny would cost double that and a nanny share about the same as my rate.

arr west london mogs,that explains it!!

I charge £4.50ph no concessions apart from a full timer paying monthly gets about a 5% discount over a year

Oh btw im in Watford

St Albans, £5 - £7 an hour
