    I sent a different chart to your FB pm. (easier than here... play dough out and all.... :: )
    At least you have $2 per hr... TN doesn't have a minimum wage . Based off minimum wage for Federal, I'm at 30% if I base it off the 50 hrs week I contract each parent without OT pay. I'm limited to 4 kids, so still not making a great wage.

        I agree. I'm in Cali and the lowest I charge is $3 which is 30% of the $10 minimum. The top would be for infants for which I charge @$5.56/hr.

        I actually prepare a tuition worksheet for prospective clients so that they can see just how little they are paying for the care of their precious child. It actually helps me too, by making me aware of what I'm bringing in for an enrollment spot and why I can't reduce my rates (b/c believe me they ask).

        If you would like to see it, I would be happy to share. Just send me a PM with your email and I will forward it to you.
