childminder/nursery fees

[Em78]

hi just wondered if anyone could help.

my boss is looking into the child care voucher scheme and asked me how much child minders were. well i have no idea as alex is looked after by mum & mil - but i said i knew plenty of people who might know!

would be really grateful ( or my boss would!) if anyone could let me know how much they pay their childminder or nursery. am looking at both full time and part time so all experiences welcome!

thanks muchly!

Mel gave me this address a while ago, you can find local nursery's or childcare providers in your area along with facilities, opening/closing times and the fees they charge etc.
