There was a similar thread about this a while ago but it went off at a bit of a tangent.
I'm due to childmind my nephew for 6 days in July whilst my SIL goes for Jury duty. obviously the duty could be much less than that but she has to work on the grounds it will be the full 2 weeks (the little lad will be in nursery one day a week and my brother can cover another day). When it comes to charging, do I charge for 6 full days - as in, if she only has to do 2 days but I charge for 6 will she get her money back? - or just on the actual days I get used? I don't want her to be out of pocket - I'd happily do it for free but as she gets the childcare costs covered then I may as well get paid for it and as such may as well charge the most I can for it.
I'd really appreciate it if anybody has any advice...... x
