hi i've got a 8 month baby starting after the easter hols and its only for 4 hours i might charge her for 8 hours(my lest hours i do, sorry can't spell mimium??)but she might have a afternoon to add she learning to be a teachers assistant ? so instead of using a whole new contract just for 8 hours or could i use a short version contract?? that i could make up and use or does any1 have one that i could use ??? any suggestions thanks gail

I'm not sure I understand why you want to use a short version of a contract

I would use a standard NCMA contract because my terms and conditions would be the same whether it's for 4 hours minding or 40

Sorry can't help you more than that

I agree with Miffy - unless we are getting the wrong end of the stick ?

I use an NCMA short term contract in these instances...only one page to fill out rather than three!

That's Ok I know what you mean they are expensive but worth it if anything goes wrong.

Just thought I was being thick!

Good luck

I'd use a proper one if you are with NCMA tbh... wouldn't want anything to go wrong and not be covered properly...

Good luck!

I would also use a full contract too

I only use a short term contract if it's for work that will go on for just a few weeks or very random as and when needed and available as they only cover six weeks or something like that.

If it was a permanent job I would use the normal contract no matter the number of hours per week.

hi its just to cover someone for 8 hours (one day) i don't know for how long?? it's a parent from school who's wants me to look after her son 8 months old (i looked after her daughter b4 she had him) she's on a course ? training to be a teacher assistance (i think) so it might become more? hopefully down the line ?
