I don't personally as I have more holiday children than term time only, so term time only is my preferance.

We charge the same, Is mum being funded through care to Learn? because they will pay through the holidays.

If it isn't funded through the holidays work out a rate at half fee for hols and add it on to your term time rate and divide it between the months of the year. i.e £100 x 39 weeks plus £50 x 13 weeks = £4550 divided by 11 = £413.64 per month September to July inclusive. She will get her allowance too.

This is how I do it and it works well for me.:thumbsup:
I have 2 mums at uni and that's how I do it too.

no, but I prefer to have less children in the holidays so it suits me. I charge higher for schoolies though

I charge the same amount, but I charge half during the holidays as the lo is taking one of my under 5's spaces and I can't fill it as they will need the space when term begins again!

As from September one of my lo's is going to school, and I will be needed for one hour a night, three times a week. I am planning on on charging £5 per night (currently charge £3.50/hour), as she is the only after schoolie I have at present, and I will have to make sure I am about especially for her coming in from school!
