    Default What do you charge for before & after school?

    Hi,


    I've got my 1st school enquiry & don't know what to charge - I was thinking £15 per day - is this too much?

    TIA x

    I include tea and breakfast so I charge £6 in the morning £11.50 in the evening and £16.25 for both. I just put it up from £15 as with food and crafts I was virtually making nothing

    I charge £4.50 for an hour in the morning or £10 for 2 hrs. Then, after school is £13 flat rate up to 6pm, then £6ph thereafter.

    I think this is about the average for my area, though is more expensive than breakfast or after school clubs.

    I charge between £5 and £10 per morning (depends on start time) and £14 after school plus a meal cost if needed

    I look at it that if I charge an hourly rate and children go at 4 then I have gone out for virtually nothing and I cannot fill 4-6pm

    check what you local childminders are doing too.

    I charge £5 for mornings and £8 for after school. This makes it in line with the fees from the breakfast and after school club which includes breakfast and a hot dinner.
