1 week on two weeks off

[wonderwoman80]

Hi if you had a parent who wanted you mon to fri but only one week in three. Would you charge a retainer for the two weeks you dont care for their child?

[tashaleee]

For me it would depend on the age of the child and what hours you required?

unless she was prepared to pay for all three weeks I would not entertain it, paying a retainer for the two weeks would not be worthwhile in my opinion but if you were happy with it that the go ahead

i wouldnt do it at all unless full fee's for all weeks were being paid, you are taking up a full time space so are loosing the minder full fee's. its very unlikely they will be able to find someone for the other 3 weeks.
