The Agency Fees form part of Night Owls Terms & Conditions and establish the charges made for its services. Since the Agency Fee is based entirely upon the cost of supplying a suitable Maternity Nurse, this charge remains the same irrespective of whether the Maternity Nurse is working days, nights or live-in.
It is important to note that the Agency Fee is an additional charge to that made by the Maternity Nurse and is paid separately to the Agency upon the issuing of a Night Owls Invoice. The Invoice can be issued at the time of booking, when the specific dates are agreed or will be issued at the end of a booking period once the actual dates that the Maternity Nurse has worked, are known.
