Going rate for after school care

[EDmummy]

Does anyone know the going rate for after school care? Thanks to the withdrawal of Council subsidy for after school care, our fees are going to increase 20%. Would be interested to know what others are paying - either in school, out of school, or for child minders or similar.

I think Goodrich afterschool club is ?9 for 3.30-6 and our child minder charges ?12 for the same time period.

I paid my CM ?15 for pick up & care to 6pm - that was a couple of years ago.

Anyone have any experience of discounts for a second child with either After School Care, CM or other?

BeccaL, is the Goodrich service provided by the school, Council or a private company?

Thanks

Goodrich is run by Gumboots who also do after school care in ?Darrell Road community centre? I think. I think Gumboots is private, but don't know for sure - you can find them via google. No idea of second child cost - sorry.

Thanks for the info, BeccaL. Does anyone else have any experience of this?

Gumboots is a charity and originally had St. Johns and St. Clements and Goodrich schools as their nominated schools- and met at the East Dulwich Community Centre.

Goodrich school then asked the organiser from Gumboots to locate at the school. EDCC is used for the St. John's kids.

Staff picked up from only these school.

Their Summer Holiday scheme is open to all children regardless of school

Goose Green primary's after school club is ?32 per child per week or ?7.50 daily rate for occasional attendance. It is run by the school (as local authority pulled funding for wrap around care - nothing like discouraging people from going to work eh?) and is on site.
