Recently had a new dcb join my group (DCM is a friend of my cousin and his girlfriend who are my clients as well). DCB has been in my care for a little over a week, he's full-time and I charge $150 a week for a spot. Today dcm told me her schedule would be changing, upon starting she did tell me her hours fluctuate but they were still within my business hours.
But today dcm asked if she had to pay full price even for days that her child is absent, since he'll be with grandma tomorrow. I told her yes it's 150 a week regardless of abscences, but she seemed worried so I inquired further.
DCM let me know that her schedule would be changing more than I was intially aware of. So some weeks she would need care 5 days a week, and other weeks it may only be 1 day a week. I would like to help her out but it's a bit inconvient, seeing that I wouldn't know what days she'd be here so finding another child to fill that would be near impossible. I'm not sure how or what to charge her. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
