Hi Trudi,
I myself am a daycare provider and totally understand your situation. In my daycare I set up several different rates depending on you situation. Sometimes hourly which would affect your pay, but not always. I usually charge a full time rate of $100 a week if they are going to be there everyday for more than 6 hours. In you situation I probably would've charged a little more per week consider the difference between 6 and 11 hours...that's almost double. I'm sure it's a little late now but I would give her a notice..in my policy I ask for 1-2 weeks notice of technically I could charge. I really think she should work with you but maybe because I look at each child's situation differently. Hope it works for you!
