Pay As You Go Childcare

A friend of mine has decided to offer Pay As You Go childcare.  

Most childcare is provided under a contract.  Nannies are contracted to a family.  Childminders contract parents for a set number of hours a week.

Sunninghill Play Centre will be different in that parents can leave their child for as short a period of time as 1 hour, to as long as 11 hours.   No long term contract, just book the time they need.  

I suppose it is a bit like a crèche except that parents don't have to remain on site.  

My friend will also be providing before school and after school care.  I imagine that care for school aged children will probably be what turns out to be most popular, given the location - it is a very short walk from a St Michaels Primary School, Sunninghill.

Would you use a PAYG childcare service... or would you prefer it to be under a contract?
