Hello there,
I am just wondering how much i would have to pay a childminder to look after my 2 boys (3&5) and my 20 month old girl? It would be from 830 till 530 5 days a week in the knocklyon area of Dublin. It would involve bringing and collecting from school/Montessori as well as feeding, doing homework and playing too.
Thank you :-)

Hi,
Hope this helps, you have several options,
Childminder-
Childminders home. Approx 8-10 euro´s per hour. Some
Childminders will request to be paid per child (€5) and
Will offer discounts for second, third children.
You may need to suppy meals, and petrol money.
A childminder can mind up to 5 children. 3 or more and
They must reg
If your children are sick you may not be able to send them.
Nanny-
Your home. Can work 40-50 hours. Be prepared to pay 10-15
Per hour depending on experience and quailfications.
They will mind only your children and will take care of chores regarding
The children. For example, clothes, meals, play-areas etc.
You will need to pay taxes and reg as an employer.
You can find a Nanny through web sites but also through agencies.
There will be a finders fee in an agency. In most cases it´s a months wage.
Au Pair-
An Au pair is a live in minder.
They will work about 30 hours per week. They will care
For your children, cook childrens meals and do some light housework.
You will pay approx 120 per week but will need to provide a private room
And bathroom.
Au pairs are generally 18-21 students who wish to travel.
You also have creche and afterschool options but am not
Sure on the fees for these.
If you have any other questions feel free to Pm me. Best of luck in
Your search.
