[Pudding Girl]

No that's just actual hours the kids are here!!

[Nicki L]

I do 31.75 hours childminding with actual kids being here.

16.5 for Lloyds Tsb

So thats 48 and a quarter hours actual paid work.

Then god knows how much on paperwork etc!!!

I did 47 hours this week. Before this week it was 45. But it could go up to about 50 hours at any time, as my after school mindee's mam sometimes works till 8 and doesnt get here till 9.

[Chatterbox Childcare]

I have had the children for 53.75 hours a week and then I have spent another 15-20 hours training and writing policies and at the weekend it will be another 4 hours for books.

That's 72. hours for me

Bet by the time everyone adds in their extras then they will be there too..

[chels55]
