Contractual fees - late payment, late collection etc.
Hi,
I am a new childminder and want to get my head around all the fees mentioned in the NCMA contracts. I muddled through the contract with the parent (who is thankfully a known friend) the first time but wanted to check with regards to the hidden rates the NCMA talk about in their contracts (I have my hourly £4.50 - £5, daily £42 and weekly £190 rate set and I'm happy with it).
So please can I have help on roughly what the following should be:
1. Early delivery / late collection fee? (is there a common amount?)
2. Late payment fee? (is this a percentage perhaps?)
3. Occassional Overnight Care? (I'm registered to have 1 overnighter)
4. I was thinking of charging double time for a bank holiday if required does that sound ok?
Thanks so much for your input, I want to sound far more confident when doing my next contract on Wednesday.
