I currently look after a 7 year old before and after school, totalling 3.75 hrs, 4 days a week. I have him for 10hrs a day, 4 days a week in school holidays.
His mum goes on maternity leave mid July, right at the start of the school holidays. At the moment they are saying they wont need me at all (this may change when they realise how hard it is when you suddenly have 2 children)! I am then due to have him and his baby brother/sister as normal in March 2014.
This is obviously going to cut my pay drastically during the school holidays, I have mentioned a retainer will need to be paid but am unsure how much I should charge. If I can fill his holiday space then I will.
Advice please.... :0)
