    Default What to charge

    Got a lady coming tonight to sign contracts she want 4 flexable days, I usually charge £3.50 hour and time and half from 7-8oclock, my problem is I have a full time space and because she wants flexable days I will have to give notice to a little boy I have 1 day a week, I was thinking of charging £4.00 hr to cover the loss of earnings on the one day. It would be £140.00 week at my normal rate and 152.00 at £4.00 hr at this hourly rate all day.
    am I being greedy asking for more money or do you think this is resonable.

    yes, I think that is reasonable; much cheaper for the mum than if she had to pay full price for all 5 days, which is what it takes up in terms of spaces you can offer
