Half days do NOT include lunch or rest time.
Half days are in blocks of time only and if a parent chooses the A.M. time frame and doesn't pick up until 11:15, they are billed an entire day and/or considered late and charged the appropriate late fee ($1 per minute).
I understand using child care for a Dr appointment or a couple quick errands but care must fit into MY schedule or it is no longer an option.
This is pretty much how I do mine, too. I charge half my drop in rate, too. ($25)
