re : Fees 28/08/2016 22:22 - How Much Should I Charge or Pay ----------------------------------- This ecce has really put childminders in a pickle, the two years will prove too much for childminders who have no choice but to reduce day rate while costs increase....parents are believing the spin from the government ie free preschool/childcare. Yet the cost (fuel, wear and tear of car, insurance, risk of being out on road/busy carpark etc compared to minding a baby) and hassle of school runs for a three hour period has to be considered. Be careful of your car insurance as you´ll be down in preschool as a collector of child, you may even have to sign for twins so domestic policy will not cover you. If your mum was happy with €60, youv now school runs and a later finish surely she can understand where the increase is. Stand your ground if you can afford to have principles.
