hiya, welcome to the forum.

i agree with tasha. your website looks great really like it, but i wouldnt advise on working out payments yearly, you need to consider your holidays etc, or do you intend on charging?

anyway there is a thread somewhere about this, ill have a look for it.

look forwrd to "chatting" to you

Hi

This is how my childminder works out her charges, and most childminders I have looked at local to me charge for their holiday so I am going to aswell. I think most people expect it, I know i did and I already have 1 mindee lined up and they also have this arrangement with their current childminder. So apart from the holiday what are the drawbacks? So much to consider!

Thanks

I actually agree with Tasha and Lou, working out a monthly charge based on the full year you could lose out on alot of money, what if they stay for 5 months and leave work out how much you would lose....! it is up to you, you are right but we all have different views and opinions and as they say if you dont want them dont ask ...lol We all appreciate we all have different points of view and totally respect each other so you must do what you feel is right regardless of what us lot say at the end of the day. Your web page looks good but I think you have to have permission to advertise with the NCMA logo, Pauline may be able to advise on this, I'm sure I've seen somewhere it's not allowed to be used by us. Good Luck with your registration, keep us posted.
