Rates:
£3.75 per hour (between 7.30am & 6.00pm). A minimum commitment does apply and can be agreed on a specific basis.
Full day rate is £35 (from 7.30am to 6.00pm)

Late collections (after an agreed collection time) £3.75 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 or cheques when settling your fees. 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.
Should any late payment be submitted, an additional charge of £5 per day will be applied.
If any arrears do occur, I do withhold the right to withdraw my care until your account is up to date. I reserve the right to withdraw my care should payment not be made after five employed days.
