Hi all,

I have a prospective parent coming for second visit and form filling on Tuesday but have been reading some posts on here and have realised I may have given myself problems.
They only require me 2 weeks at a time in any month for 5 days a week.
So basically she works 2 on 2 off. I wasn't going to charge for the 2 off but have realised that I probably should be as I will not be able to fill the place whilist the child is on my books.
Should I tell her this on Tuesday and do you have any ideas on how much I should charge for the 2 off if at all. Arrrgggh.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Personally I would charge a half fee retainer for the weeks she doesn't use.

Hi i would definitely charge for every week as i would want a full time fees every week. Our places are limited so i could not afford to take her on just for two weeks in the month!

Your chances of fitting anyone in around her are pretty slim!
