I charge year round. I not base my fees on client profession. A place is a place. They can come in Summer because they be paying. Teacher get paid year round. All client charged based on day reserved not day attended. Just because teacher get more time off than most, that not mean they should be bill free in Summer. If they go on vacation for month, they still have pay mortgage. If they not need use their daycare place, they still pay for it. I have 2 teachers too. One child comes daily all summer, other child come some days and parent tell me on Sunday when their son be here for next week.

Some provider here target teacher child because they close for summer. They not charge because they closed and want summer with own family.

Some provider here charge 50% retainer to hold place for next September because they want reduced numbers as own children count so they need lower daycare children when own children home from school.

Most who assign a place for teacher child, charge 100%. If teacher not want pay, they can go somewhere else.
