Hi everyone,

As I am new to childminding, i would like to know ,how you would charge for looking after child 3 days a week after school?. should I charge 5 or 3 days after school??? Do i need to charge per hour?

thanks

i would charge only for the days they are there, either an hourly rate or an after school rate, and comparable to other local childminders :)

I'd only charge the three days unless its shift work/variable days. Some charge hourly, some charge a flat fee.
