Baby sitting wages up state ny?

Question

I live upstate ny am a mother of 3. I've watched a little girl for 20 dollars a day now someone asked me to watch there 4yr old boy full time .I'm not sure what to ask for because I chargered her 20 1 day also but 40 hours is worth more than 100 dollars isn't it? We live in a poor county but when I lived down state i paid 50 a day what is a fair price?

Answer 1

call around to different daycare centers and ask for rates on a full-time 4 year old. You're rates should be similar to what the daycare centers rates are.

Full-time is a difficult decision to make. Think about what you will be giving up. It will be difficult to make doctors appointments for your children, and yourself.

On the other hand, it's a wonderful if you are able to help another family.
