childminders how do charge this?

[Bos15]

7 years old child just one hour a day from 8:00 to 9:00?

I have a £10 minimum charge especially if taking to school in the car as taking up a place because taking up a seat!

i live next to school.
are you charge for school holiday?bank holiday...

Depends if I have the child in just term time I have a term time only contract then if parents want to book any days in the holidays they have to be mutually agreed and charged at usual hourly rate £3.30. If I have them tin the school holidays then I charge in the school holidays.

I would probably charge £6.00 an hour which is my usual unsociable hourly but as it is for such a short amount of time you need to make it worth your while.

is it £5.00 per hour term time only .no bank holiday,no charge for Child absences is it ok from the parents side?

sorry 5 pound

sorry 5 pound

I'd just charge for the hour before school. But I live 2 streets from the school so no issue with number of car seats. And I have afterschool children who don't come in the mornings and under 5s who don't start til 9 so plenty of space for more in the morning.

I would put in the contract that its full fees for absence on school closure days (eg snow day, boiler breakdown etc) and for bank holidays on a contracted day in a term-time week. But I wouldn't charge for school holidays as I have enough in the holidays already.

so my charg will be ok?the mum will come to me next day????
ihad mum came to me before and she need 2 hours befor school and i told her the charge will be 10 pound term time only and no bank holiday,no charge for Child absences, and she found it too expensive!!!from 7.00am to 9:00am

Bos15 - are you a new minder? If so, I'd suggest concentrating on filling full-time places. Then once that is working well, then add on the before/after school.
In my area, childminders often have a fixed charge for before/after school care - such as £10 or £15 for before school, to include taking to school.
Some parents will shop around on price, some won't want to pay much, others will feel your fees are value for money (it enables them to get to work on time, if they couldn't find someone to take their child to school, what would they do then).
Can you ask other local childminders to see what local market rates are (you may be able to establish that also from childminder websites and childcarelink).

childcarelink dose not help so much,and i have no problem to fit that child in my sitting,as i have a same age just after school ,and he is 7 years old ,and very local childminders will never ever help,
iam for that as they said that they charge more than i,but am not sure..

and i saw children walk to school alone and they under 7 ,iam sure
