I am just about to fill a spot which I wasn't looking to do so but inquiry is perfect. It will be collecting a child from morning preschool session at the same time I drop one off for his afternoon session. It's then until school pick up where I will meet mum at school before collecting my after schoolers.
Anyway to the point....
I usually have a daily minimum charge of £20. But since he can't possible use anymore hours either side of the contracted hours, I'm thinking I will just charge the usually hourly rate. To me this seems fair but another minder has said I should stick to my policies. I wrote the policy to stop people taking up few hours and wasting a whole under 5 spot but this client isn't doing this, in fact the exact opposite.
Your thoughts please?
