Thanks for reply. No qualifications or childminding experience(apart from her own grown up children) and no to first aid, garda vetted etc. She is minding her grandchild too. I haven´t priced around as it´s a small community and everyone knows everyone! Would I be fair in thinking €50 or €55 a day? Forgot to say one of the 3 days I collect at 4.30/5. Thanks

I would have thought that that was a bit on the low side myself. If you start by working out €5 per hour per child and then give a discount of 10% for siblings in comes to about €67.50 a day factoring the shorter days. That is how I would work out a rate, but it really depends on what both you and the minder are happy with. It needs to be affordable for you, but it also should be a rate that the minder feels she is being appreciated. Is she is paying for food, petrol, PRSI and house insurance etc? Will she be paid for bank holidays etc. Will the rate change when the kids are off school? An open conversation with the minder as well as drawing up a written agreement would be very helpful for you all I feel,
best of luck

Rate depends on status of childminder..has she qualifications, experience, insured, first aid, garda vetted etc. Car insurance to carry minded children is absolutely needed. Watch ratios.
Have you priced who´s available in your area? Compare what they are offering.

We live in a rural area. Can anyone advise how much is the going rate to pay a childminder to mind 3 siblings for 3 days a week. Before school from 7.30 - 9 including school run and then collecting from preschool at 12, school at 2 and school again at 3. I collect then at 6pm 2 days and 5pm one of the days.
All advice appreciated. Thanks

I would echo Katies response but as youv stated her situation ie uninsured she must be cheaper for you to take the risk. Ask her and see. Minding her grandchild is completely different to minding other people´s children and she may not be aware of her responsibility in ensuring an insured environment. No harm mentioning it and see her response.
Definitely price around, if someone is quoting very low they either inexperienced and will soon look for more money/give up or are over ratio. Definitely ask her draw up a contract or volunteer if she doesn´t want do one.
