Help - do childminders include all meals in their hourly rates?

[luckylady74]

I need to know if I'm being unreasonable! Thanks.

Don't know about all cm's - I pay hourly rate for DS and nothing extra for meals. HTH

thanks

I charge an hourly rate and parents supply the food for their child, I do reheat hot food if brought.

i charge hourly rate and inc drinks/snacks, but charge more for meals

thanks again

I'm a childminder. My rate are all inclusive, with the exception of nappies.

My rates are all inclusive too

I charged extra for meals, but now I don't offer them, the children bring a pack up.

Probably 50/50 with the CM that I know with charging all in or charging extra.

I charge hourly rate that is inclusive of everything bar nappies.

I charge an hourly rate inclusive of everything except nappies and wipes but my younger mindees provide some or all of their food. I don't provide food for under ones.
But I do not charge extra once they do start having my food.

Same as Shoshe. I used to charge £1.50 for an evening meal but don't now as it's less for the tax man!

yes, £2 for dinner £1 for lunch. £3.80 ph
hth!

Thanks - mumsnet is so the best place to go with an emergency question! Thanks all for your help.

I pay my childminder an hourly rate - I provide my sons packed lunch and she provides dinner - she doesnt charge extra for his dinner.

Snacks and drinks are included in my fees, but I charge £1.50 for breakfast or lunch and £2 for meals. Which means my daily rate is cheaper that it would be if I included all meals iyswim.

I only use a CM for school holiday/ out of school care. We supply a packed lunch.

i charge my hourly rate then extra for meals
