Depends on your area. Here full time rate is usually 45$ a day. So I'd charge full day rate for the under 2. The 8,7,5 get a b/a school rate. Here that is 20$ depending on hrs. Each school age child. And then they pay full day rate on pd days, school holidays, snow days etc. so that be 60$ for all three school age kids plus 45$ for the under 2, so 105$ for all 4. all 4 kids will count towards your numbers so u only have one spot left if you take this family.

Depends on the area. In my area(halton ontario) it would be $50 for the under 2 yr old, and $25 a day per child for before/after, so $125 a day.
I would charge full-day rate for the little one. And normal before and after school for the school age children. Do not give sibling discount.Quote:

If you have any children of your own then this will be the only family that you can care for since they are using 4 of your 5 spaces. So only if you have no kids of your own under age 6 can even add anymore. For that reason I would be asking the family to pay at least the equivalent of two full time spaces plus something for the other two if they want to use that many spaces.
