Hi all,
I'm a pre reg childminder who is just waiting for blasted CRB checks to be completed, partners done just waiting on mine, and I have had an enquiry to look after three siblings, 2 are school age 6 and 7 and the other is 2, nearly 3. I have not a clue what to charge, I am needed to look after them mon-fri from 7am-6.30pm...phew!
On working out my hourly rate plus a little discount it is amounting to a figure that most people wouldn't earn in a month! Am I doing something wrong! I live in South Yorkshire so fees are slightly less than other places.
Would someone mind just helping me out on whether I should be offering a sibling discount, whether its a good idea putting all of my eggs into one basket, so to speak! and just any general advice would be greatly appreciated! Also not sure whether this really matters but she is a single parent.
Thanks for reading! Lovely to meet you all! :clapping:
