Childminding cost with child at playschool 07/07/2015 13:05 - How Much Should I Charge or Pay (Locality: Louth) ----------------------------------- Hi, We live in a small town in a rural area. I currently have a 24 year old minding my children in her own home. She minds them from 8:50 til 4pm. The eldest child (6) is dropped to school (2min walk) at 9:10 til 2. The youngest will be starting playschool for 2 mornings a week in september 9am til 12pm (in same premises as first child goes to school - not free year). She was charging 40 euro a day. She is currently on maternity leave and due back 10th August. We do not have a contract or anything like that. I pay her bank holidays and holidays. Also if she was off an odd day sick or had hospital appointment I also paid her. I was wondering if it is reasonable to pay her half pay for the hours my youngest is at school or do I still have to pay her the same amount? Obviously if the child is off school or on hols I will pay her full amount. I´m not trying to be tight, I just don´t know what the done thing is as my eldest has always been at school from I had to take on a childminder. Thanks in advance for any replies!
