Hi,

Raising fees can be a difficult thing for some providers, but sometimes it just has to be done.

I’ve just been reading an interesting forum thread with some great advice on this which I recommend you take a look at.

Here’s the original forum post:

“I am considering raising my fee at about $15 more per week. I used to get Tier II in the food program and now I get Tier I. I haven’t spoken to the parents yet but was wondering if this seems fair?

I used to get about $300 for Food Program and now to get $100 it’s hard to stretch it. what do you girls think? is $15 too much and do you guys think that the parents would understand?”

You can read the whole thing here: Raising my fee

Talk soon,
Mary Nightingale

P.S. Thousands of future or current home daycare providers just like you have already signed up to my ‘how to start a home daycare’ newsletter. It’s getting a bit overwhelming and I may cap signups soon, but for the time being you can still join. Don’t worry, it’s free. All you have to do is enter your name and e-mail below:
