How Much To Charge- Pt Infant Pt SA

[jojosmommy]

Interested client wants daycare for 10 week old infant 12-4:30 and care for 2 schoolagers from 3:45-4:30. Great family. A former daycare lady, love her! No doubt want to care for the kids. Having trouble with pricing.

Not interested in charging a full time rate since I don't want another infant full time. Not technically taking up a full time slot so the whole pay full time for the spot thing doesn't apply and will be way too much for her.

Her SA kids are awesome, would only be here 45 min, again I'm not full so they would be added income, not taking up all my spots.

Find out what the going rate is for after school care in your area and charge a bit less than that. Around here I think it's about $50/week. For the infant, charge a little more than half of your daily rate. For example, I charge about $24/day for full-time care, and charge $15/day for half-day.
