What I thought was funny was that I helped out with her letter earlier and she used the whole rate x 52 weeks / 12 months in her letter to explain this whole thing to her parents. It was very clear btw ... and they are now complaining and confused :confused:

How about if you simply stop using the term "monthy" and have daycare families pay by the week in either 4 or 5 week intervals.

Leave the word "month" out of it as it is obviously what is thowing everyone off.

I would say I charge by the week and parents are expected to pay me in 5 week intervals or 4 week intervals.

Why even mess with monthly when it really isn't monthly at all....kwim?

No, she is going to be billing monthly now. No weeks involved anymore.

I want to be paid monthly as I am now and not want to always sit count the pay dates in the month. Plus I don't want weekly payments becuase I drive a boat and get 11 miles to the gallon, so don't want to have to go to the bank weekly.......

Then just bill in 4 week intervals, regardless of what month those dates fall in.

I think the monthly payments but weekly rates is really confusing so I can see where the parents are coming from.

But in my own defense, I am NOT a math whiz and still use a calculator to add anything with more than 2 numbers. My calculator of choice is made by Playskool.

ok you guys are confusing me....

I am not going off of weeks. I used this formula to figure the monthly cost.
