Do You Count 4 Days As Fulltime?

[Controlled Chaos]

I charge monthly but here is my scale. I LOVE 2 and 3 day a week kids! Interviewing 2 more this week - fingers crossed!

This is based on 52 weeks a year.

Drop in = $40 a day, based on availability

2 days a week = $320 monthly ($37 a day)

3 days a week = $455 monthly ($35 a day)

4 days a week = $555 monthly ($32 a day)

5 days a week = $600 monthly (roughly $27 a day) - was going to be $30 a day, but that puts me so far above the other home daycares around here. I also only have 1 5 day a week kid. With 7 here every day.

4 days is ft to me. I just tell parents that question it that I can't put anyone in that other day to fill it. That's the way most all the dcs do it around here.

Lovethesun- so if my full time is $200 flat fee as do part
TIme is $45 a day where does that put this person seeking 4 days a week in your scenario?

Like I said before I give summers off unpaid,
2 week winter break unpaid (minus Christmas Day and New Years), 2 days surrounding Thanksgiving unpaid, spring break week unpaid. That's a significant amount of unpaid time for them per year when they are off AND still getting paid so I just want to make sure I'm smart about this

Oh sorry i misread the part about the unpaid summer... I would just charge $45 per day as well then.
Is true that filling up that one day will be very hard.
