Haiku Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 If I were going to watch a 4 a year old and a 2 year old in my home two days per week from 8:30 to 5:00 (parents would provide the meals and snacks), how much would it be fair and reasonable to charge?

Karen sn Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Off the top of my head - if they needed a break - $80. If they did not need a break - $160. ETA - that's based on good kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 10 bucks an hour is really 7 an hour after taxes (approx). Just fwiw. I think $10 an hour is reasonable, so I agree with Karen's second figure, $160. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momtolgd Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Depends on the going rate in your area. Here where I am I would charge about $120 for both kids. I find the best thing to do is call around and find out rates in your area and make your prices within the range of what answers you get.
