Childminder-Where to look?

battleaxe88

I'm starting a course in September and will need my daughter collected from play-school and minded twice a week for four hours each day.

I have no idea how much this should cost or where to look for a childminder who could do the above.

I should probably mention the play-school can't do it as all the kids are off the premises between 12:15 and 13:30

Any websites with this information?

Thanks in advance.

I think your best bet might be another mother who would collect your child after playschool with their own child.
Could you ask another mother or maybe playschool teacher for names of any one who might be interested ?
Other way would be ad in local paper or shop notice boards .
Best of luck

Great idea. My wife recently gave up work and has had a few requests to do the school runs and after school child minding from neighbours. Don't be embarrassed to ask...could just work out!
