Charging for transition dates

[jodaycare]

My transition days are covered by the one week fee that they pay when they sign. It usually works out to two full days pay. I only start charging when the child is left alone.

I only start charging when the child is left alone.

This is my practice as well - I figure that the pre visits are things I am requesting as well and benefit me as well since makes transition easier so any cost associated with having the child "visit" can come out of my operating budget verses charging clients - I ha e had clients offer to pay for food if child stays over a lunch visit but I decline .
