Do you charge or 30 mins?

[claire250182]

I charge £3.00 per hour and I have a before & afterschool child starting in 2 weeks. I will pick him up at 3.30pm and drop him home at 6pm. I have put in my policies that I charge PER hour therefore I would charge £6.00 for 90 mins. Does anyone do similar or would you charge for 90 mins (£4.50)?
His mum never queried it but not sure if I am being tight xx

That's 2.5 hours!! No wonder mum didn't question it, you are giving 30 minutes for free!

[claire250182]

I meant 2.5 hours therefore I would charge £9.00

[singingcactus]

Yes, I'd charge £9. I have it in my fees paperwork that I charge up to the next full hour, no half hours.

[PixiePetal]

I do half hours but for those hours I would do a set fee of £10 - not worth the faffing

I charge per every 15mins but for after school I do a fixed session from 3 till 6 for £15
