    I used to charge half days but no longer do unless it's me that chose to close early.

    I've never worked on a day off but would likely charge at least $10/hr. During the week my pay is based on 4 kids but a day off with just one kid wouldn't be worth it to me unless it was a normal full days pay. I wouldn't want to get into this habit though

    I would never take a child on a day off- no way! If I ever did it would come at a hefty price!

    I charge all families regular pay no matter what hours they are here. If I close early (12 or 1) I charge $20 instead of $30. If I close early but at 3 or later I charge regular fee.

    I would never work on my day off. I don't do 1/2 days here unless it's me needing to close after lunch for an appointment. I still charge 75% of my daily rate for pickup right after lunch(no nap).
