I agree just like you need to be paid and the parents are paying you for a spot, she is getting paid for her time and availability. I'm not allowed to leave the house without a good reason, but when it's quiet and I had my assistant anyway, I took advantage of the time to do deep cleaning downstairs (non daycare floor where I am not allowed while the kids are here), or just to cook or have a good lunch. The kids pay me regardless and her fee is budgeted for regardless.
