What should I be paying?           27/09/2011 21:04 - How Much Should I Charge or Pay (Locality: Kildare) ----------------------------------- Hi everyone hopefully you might be able to help. I´m new to this forum & mum of 2 but am looking for a childminder for my 8 year old daughter. I am really unsure about how much should I pay for minding my daughter for 2.5 hours (collection from school is required) x 2 days during school term and then during holidays and mid term breaks I would need to pay for 22 hours.
