i have a parent that contacted me a month ago wanting care for 2 lo, 1 is attending pre school. at the time i was quite happy not to have the work and i said i have space but don't do the nursery run.
then hubby drop the bomb shell about his job and mindee mum about looking at moving... so I now NEED to work.
i saw that mum was still looking so i contacted her and advise her on an other "childminding group" who does picks up...
she said they were too expensive and had terrible phone manners!!
i said i'm happy to help if i can but can't do pm pick up as too hard with other school run. she now came back and said son does am which i could do and asked how much i charge.
now at the mo i haven't got sibling and always said that for part timers i wouldn't do sibbling fees BUT if that makes the deal......??
i had that gap 3yrs and never had inquiery for it?
so i normally charge £3.75 and said i would do oldest at £3.25 and i would only charge her 1h of the 3h nursery session when son is away for my travelling as i have to cross town by car.
it's not much of a discount but how low do you go??
