    Oh no I didnt mean that, only to see if you could add that on as a saving too. But to be fair I cant imagine many CMs would allow people to cancel and not pay as its hardly fair to them, although if I was paying for a wasted day Im sure I'd wish it was possible.

    I have to really let it go because in all fairness our cm is more than fair and flexible with us. A lot of the time she lets me change the days around and when we were really broke I had asked for an additional day and then madam was ill the week before and I asked her not to charge me for the day she was off - cos over the period of the month she went her usual amount of days. She thought about it and then when we got the bill didn't charge for the additional day. So sometimes you have to weigh everything up!

    She sounds like a great child minder. Great to have that.
