- Childminders run their own business and set their own fees for their childminding service.
- Some childminders will charge an inclusive fee and others charge a basic fee and charge extra for food, outings etc. Some childminders charge an hourly rate only and some charge a daily or weekly rate which slightly reduces the hourly rate. Remember to ask what your childminders fees include or exclude.
