I let them know on the interview that I will give them a receipt (which I keep a copy of) each time they pay me. They have to pay me at least weekly, but may pay either weekly, biweekly, monthly, whichever they perfer. They are required to keep track of their reciepts and add them up themselves for their end of the year total to put on their taxes. I do not total my parents pay seperately for myself for my taxes. I just add up my total pay from everyone for my taxes.

Each of my kiddos have a designated cubby and a portfolio folder. The kind you can 3 hole punch papers and clip in the center but is smaller than a binder.
Each folder has the months calendar clipped into the center. I put all my important dates on them. The parents are welcome to write in their schedules as well. The pocket on the left is labeled "take home." Here is where i put their artwork, newsletters, reminders, supply lists. On this pocket I usually paperclip their receipt (the kind from walmart) they get every payment due date. The pocket on the right is labeled "stay at daycare." I store the alphabet and numbers book they've been making through the year as well as their sign in/sign out sheet for SRS (if applicable.)
My payments are due every other Friday so I send their folders home on Thursday evening. The parents empty them out and bring them back Friday morning with their check paper clipped on the front of the pocket where their receipt was.
The parents have raved on about how well this system works for them and I wished I would have started it years ago.Comment
