I charge by the week for 6 kids and only 2 are full time. I only take families that share my beliefs that kids need quality time with family. My families, even though they are only part time, still keep the kids home when they can.
Most of my kids are part time and I have very high parental involvement. With that said, I don't care if parents drop them off when they aren't working. Everyone needs a break once in awhile. My parents don't abuse it, so I understand when they do it.
When my ds was in daycare, I would take a few hours every 3 months and go to the bookstore, shop, or even get grocery shopping for the week done when I was out of work early. Then when I picked up I was relaxed, focused on ds, and a much better mom.
I charge for every day they are scheduled to be here, regardless of attendance.
