Also ensure she has altered her car insurance to cover your children in her car.

We are living in Tipp, that seems extremely high for 3days a wk with two kids in school from 9-3. Can I ask you your break down of that price please. Any other ppls thoughts on price welcome too. Thanks

re : How much to pay a Childminder. 22/01/2020 11:35 - How Much Should I Charge or Pay ----------------------------------- For four kids, you´d be better to employ a nanny in your own home, the cost will be much the same but with a huge amount of convenience for both you and your children. It will be hard too to find a Cmer who can mind four kids, especially if she´s her own kids. **a childminder only needs register with Tusla if minding more than three preschoolers (so any kids not in national school). 5 preschoolers is the max a Tusla registered childminder (including her own) can have with one after schooler; 6 is max amount of minded children together otherwise planning is needed.
