[quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised your preschool doesn't do this already. I've never heard of one, at least in our area (Bethesda), that doesn't charge.

Ours is also $1 per minute and we've paid maybe 3-4 times over a year. Payable directly to the teacher. We usually round up to the nearest $10 increment. We also usually double what we are required to pay because we have two children at the preschool and they are kind of a handful.

One of my friends who is at another small private preschool down the road from us runs late a lot and they charge the same, too. She has a really unpredictable job and works in DC so she's late by a lot -maybe 3-4 times a month- but she has an informal arrangement with the afternoon teachers in that she calls ahead when she knows this will happen and they make arrangements to stay late. She has been an hour late a few times so she had to shell out $60+ for the hour. But she swears it's better than getting a nanny to pick up every day and that the teachers love the chance to make a quick $60.[/quote]
