A lot of your families will be taking summer vacation too. Just let them know when you interview which week you will be closed. Some people that do just b/a also operate with two contracts - a school year one Sept-June and a summer one. The rules are slightly different on each on. With the summer parents book by the week not the whole summer. That means for instance they might have their child in soccer camp one week in July and a family vacation week first week of Aug and then dance camp the last week of Aug. They would then book for the remaining weeks and would be charged accordingly. That means over the summer you might have 10-12 kids registered but not all of them all weeks. Then you would just be closed one of the weeks. Means no paid vacation time though. Parents used to paying only a small amount for care during the school year are annoyed about having to pay double for a full day. Parents having to pay for a week of summer camp plus you may just make them angry. At most I would be only charging them the b/a rate from the year as in that rate stays in effect all year and then for any full day they come they pay an additional fee - ie PD, March, Summer. So your holiday pay is only the b/a rate from the school year not the full time rate from the summer and a parent could certainly argue that.
