Childminder
Childminders whose hourly fees haven't kept pace with food, nappy and resource costs — and who take funded hours at face value — can be running the week at a hidden loss. This Premium pricing calculator makes the real picture visible. Eight income lines come pre-loaded — hourly and daily childminding fees, before- and after-school care, holiday club care, overnight care where registered, government-funded 15- and 30-hour places, additional charges for meals and outings, sibling discounts, and emergency short-notice care — each with editable ratio and resource cost. Enter your hourly rate once and every income line rebuilds with margin shown alongside. A quote builder handles new placements, a daily log tracks attended hours, an expenses tracker keeps food and resource spend visible, and a monthly dashboard shows which streams actually pay. Delivered as one Excel workbook for UK childminders — price against your real costs.

A childminder business lives on trust — and that trust is built in every parent, owner or family message you send. Enquiry replies, settling-in letters, incident updates, reminders, review requests. Rewriting these from scratch drains the week; patchy messaging reads as disorganised. This AI Copy Kit gives you 120+ ready-made messages, prompts and templates written specifically for UK childminders. Four components: an AI Copy Kit Main with 30 structured playbooks for every communication scenario from first enquiry to final invoice follow-up; Copy Banks for quick-grab messages by situation; Email Templates for client onboarding, job completion, payment reminders and seasonal promotions; and an Automation Guide showing how to use the templates with AI tools, including reusable prompt formulas for any future message — covering enquiry replies, settling-in notes, vacancy updates, incident follow-ups, rebooking and review requests. Editable DOCX plus PDF reference copies. UK-specific tone. Copy, customise, send.
