5 weeks usually - 1 at Christmas, 1 at Easter, May 1/2 term, 2 in summer hols, and odd days as don't work BH's, including training days. I don't charge if I'm off & most of my chn are TTO so sometimes I got more.

I usually have upto 4 weeks holiday and am closed for 1 or 2 weeks at Christmas!! I usuually have 1 week at easter, 2 (sometimes only 1) in the summer and I used to have October half term off when my boys were at school - simply because if the weather was bad I didn't end up with upto 10 children (including my own 4) to occupy

but now they are out at work I don't always have that week now!!
