Rates:
£4.50 per hour (between 7.30am & 6.00pm). A minimum commitment does apply and can be agreed on a specific basis.
Full day rate is £40 (from 7.30am to 6.00pm)
Late collections (after an agreed collection time) £4.25 per half hour.
Child or Parent’s sickness: The full fee is required.
Childminders sickness: No charge applies.
Child & Parent’s holidays:
A half fee is required (up to a maximum of 4 weeks). Please ensure you advise me of your holidays with a minimum of two weeks notice.
Childminder holidays:
No charge applies. I reserve the right to take up to 6 weeks unpaid annual holiday each year (out of term). These will apply during the Easter, Summer & Christmas holidays. I will give no less than 2 weeks advance notice of the holiday dates.
Occasionally, I may need to take the day off for an appointment, family activity or attend additional training. I will give you these days as far in advance as possible so that you can arrange alternative care for your child. I will also try to pick a day that is convenient to the majority of parents, if possible. These days will be considered as unpaid holidays.
Public Bank Holidays: A full fee is required.
Payment of fees:
I can accept cash, cheques, Childcare Vouchers or Standing Order. I would ask that payment is made in advance of the forthcoming week. This should be made on the first day of your child’s time with me that week.
Note: Should any late payment be submitted, an additional charge of £5 per day will be applied.
