I have very rarely been asked about a full time space. I only have 1 child who is full-time monday to friday. All the others are tues/thurs, mon/wed/fri. Its for sure hard for scheduling and ensuring that I'm never over my numbers. I would absolutely prefer to have 5 full time monday to friday kids but it just doesn't seem to be out there. So many people work weekends now and don't want to pay for daycare when they don't need it, which I fully understand.
I'm in Whitby Ontario which is kinda wrapped around by Oshawa LOL and like MM said FT is pretty hard to find. EVERYONE is asking for PT..
I charge:
$35 FT 5 days a week
$37 3-4 days a week
$40 1-2 days a week

I don't want to deal with school runs yet so I don't offer it, when my own daughter starts school then I'll add it in. Out of all the interviews I've had only one last week has been for FT...eventually (see post)
