Hi all

I have a parent coming over on Tuesday to sign contracts (my first one! Yipee:clapping: )

Firstly any advise for the signing of the first contract?

Secondly I advised her at our first meeting that as term time only contract I would be charging for 4 weeks hols ( but would try and take them in the school hols). as im not charging her a retainer for the school hols.

Just wondering how you would go about this when she comes to sign?

My fee is £3.50 but how would she pay for the 4 weeks hols??? Does this make any sense? :blush:

Thanks everyone! :thumbsup:

Why not see how many hours she needs each week then divide it up by 39 weeks (i think that's right) and then see how much it is with 4 weeks taken off.
But of course you would not have so much coming in each month.
I only do term-time as we can ONLY have our holidays when school is out so i'm just charging for the time the child is at my setting...pay as you go :)
