I may be keeping an almost-2 month old for 2 weeks (her mom has to go back to work 2 weeks before the daycare has a spot for her). I'm wondering how much I should be getting paid for this. I have no experience with daycare/in-home care costs. Obviously I have all kinds of baby gear here, so she would only really need to bring formula/EBM & diapers.
Any thoughts on what would be reasonable?
Re: Babysitting Pay?
I would say $120 - $140 a week is the norm for in-home care in our area. ?I paid $120 for Kylie per week for the hours of 7:30 - 5:30.
I paid my nannies $8 an hour, but I think that is a different situation than what you are describing because the nanny came to my home and DD was the only responsibility she had.?
We have a nanny which is slightly different but we pay her $10/hr.
