Daycare $$$ disagreement?

I watch my friends 2 children,I told her from the commencing i want to be paid every week even if they dont come (for any reason). In days gone by i would get taken supremacy of so i made it clear that i charge by the week.
Well she doesnt want to pay me for the 4th of july since her kids did not come. I explained that she is to repay anyway.She said she should not pay me for a holiday! I believe she is so wrong. I one and only watch her kids and own gone way beyond what a regular daycare would do.Not to mention i never charge her for picking them up late(which happen alot)
So what do you think ~should she money me or not?

Answers:    Oh girlfriend I am so in equal position as you are. Yes yes yes, she need to repay you, especially if she agreed in credit. I have a home daycare too and citizens are the same road, they just suggest that they can pay whenever they want, only just because you're not certified...So stand your ground and if she doesn't pay you, communicate her to find another daycare.
See how much she pays over there.
Good luck
You have an agreement and she should pay you. Next time draw up and contract that you both sign in relation to all aspects of thought.
Personally I wouldn't want to pay you. But if she agreed to these jargon before you started looking after her kids, next she should pay you.
I other had to income at my daycare - holiday ot not, absent or within. Check the local daycares for their policy on holidays. Don't let this come between your friendship. If she doesn't want to settle up, tell her she have a week or two left but will involve to find someone new. Next time, print out a contract and brand the person sign so you are protected.
Stop watching her kids. You don't enjoy to go through that crap!
most individuals get holiday wage, and almost all daycares charge per week, even if they are gone the unbroken week. your definitaly right on this, you need to draw up a contract so this doesn't begin again. your right on this, but you might want to let it walk this time, just find it in writeing for adjectives referance
You need to obtain a written agreement, or you won't have any ground to stand on. Make a contract, something you can both agree to, and you and she should both sign it.
instinctively I would not have agreed to those vocabulary. But if she agreed to it then she requirements to pay you.

I contemplate you should allow for holidays, or at at least that they can switch to another morning of the week so you watch them duplicate number of days. You should also allow for vacation days. Two weeks next to at least a one week written awareness. Draw up a contract and both should sign. That way your friendship will be okay contained by the end.
Yes and no.
I plan, if she wasn't your friend I would say yes, she should salary you but since she is your friend, give her a break.
Having two kids and a work is hard.
What you call for to do is let it slide this one time. Write out a contract and put the holidays on it wise saying that even then you win paid.

A contract is what you obligation. And you should also put on the contract that if she is late to pick up the kids, you will charge 1.00 for every hour she is delayed and .50 for every half an hour.
Put everything on the contract.
the legitimate question is this. is your friendship really worth one days reimburse.its simple math, take your weeks recompense divide by the number of days you keep the kids, and ask yourself if thats the helpfulness you place on you friendship. regardless of the agreement. this argument is the reason you should own your arrangement on paper, next you got proof to plunge back on and everybody involved (including the friendship) is protected.
as you would expect she should pay you, most daycare systems charge a full week if the babe-in-arms shows up 1 day of the week and partly a weeks rate if the child does not show up at all. if she doesn't resembling paying you let her nick it to a mainstream daycare facility and argue near them, they don't argue, come Monday and you are on your way to work, you try to drop your child sour, sorry you are out of work Monday looking for day precision. in the adjectives , have them sign an agreement next to your policies pertain to the services you offer, "friends"you influence, just hold your "friends " call the local daycare and ask them their policies or budge by and pick up a sign up sheet outlining their policies and show them you are not being unreasonable.
She should, especially if that be part of the untested bargain.

Maybe you should suggest she contact several local daycare centers, and ask what their policies are. They'll detail her she'd be paying a set weekly fee, regardless of holidays, sick days or time off days.

While she's at it, she can ask about what their policies are for postponed pick-ups.

Hopefully that will get the point across to her that you aren't man unreasonable, and she'd have it worse at a daycare center (they aren't her friends, and they wouldn't allow the kids to hold on to coming if the parents don't stay paid up.)
wth? wow, i made am agreement to babysit also, but if they dont come y would they enjoy to pay?, ugh, u are simply greedy, im 17 and im not that greedy, maybe u guys should hail as each other, perchance u should call, her and ask her if shes bringing the kiids over, except then u can do w/e u want for the afternoon gosh, u got ur self surrounded by babysitting u get the the conquences, i see 2 and sometiimes they even spend the niight, but i still dont care i go and get payed 25 a day, which is fiine, i dont return with paid for the niight, and middle of the niight, possibly bcuzz its my cousins? or bcuzz i love kiids, so, u wanted to do that after u have to treaty with postponed pik ups! i do!
Make a contract. I've watched my friends kids, and it a short time ago covers both our butts. Stuff like this happen, one of my friends thought it was form of impersonal and didn't like it... but I told her it be so that situations like what is stirring to you would not be a debate. It would cover both our sides.

I also have them sign meticulousness authorizations, emergency releases, transportation permission, medication authorizations, and twist of fate liability releases - so they can't sue me if their kid needs stitches after falling on my driveway playing hop-scotch!! (it in fact happened to someone I know)

I also hold on to an income tracking sheet... sort of like a time sheet and a reward stub all contained by one. I actually write down the time the child be dropped off and picked up... and overtime is within the contract... so if they're late - they pay cheque up.

May sound tight, but unless you're doing your friend a favor - this is your job, the business you run out of your living room.

Whether she does or not... seize some forms from this website and make her sign some papers so this does not come up again. If she refuses to sign, consequently I guarantee she plans on doing it again.
If she got payed give from work then why shouldn't you? If she have to take a personal time to get it past its sell-by date, then I don`t know not. So in my assessment, if she got payed for the morning then you should also.
I do home daycare and that is to say how I get remunerated. If the parent has salaried vacations, which adjectives of the children that I have watch do, then I go and get paid for the days whether they are in attendance or not.
almost all daycares charge by the week, regardless if the child is in that or not, you are paying for the slot. she should pay you, but lawfully there is nought you can do about it unless if you enjoy a contract.
