Would you charge late fee?
My mindee has been with me over a year and mum has typically picked up early or on time. About three weeks ago after my holiday she was about 25 minutes late as she accidentally went to his nursery thinking it was a nursery day. She said I could charge her an extra hour and was very apologetic and I told her I wouldn't charge her as she was usually on time and it was a one off. Well since then she has been late every week. Last week it was by five minutes and she didn't explain why and I felt uncomfortable bringing it up, and today she turned up 15 minutes late with no apology or explanation and again, I didn't know how to bring it up without sounding rude.
I really don't like the way this is going and don't want to set the habit of being late, but with previous parents, they have become very angry when being charged late fees and have left because of it.
He is about to become my only mindee and I don't want him to go but I also don't want to be taken advantage of...
