  I would give her $50. Most babysitters get $10-15 an hour depending on what services they offer.

  I'd probably giver her $50 too.  Its what we spend on DC per days but not the $10/hr I spend on a babysitter when we go out for dinner.

  Edit:  Saw that you said you already agreed to pay her (I was worried that because she's family she might not accept money so I suggested a gift card initially).  The going rate for sitters in our area is $10-15 an hour.  I know it seems like a lot considering it was a 9 hour day but I think if you are paying you should probably pay the standard rate.  To me, $50 amounts to you paying a little more than $5 an hour.  If you want to compromise between the going rate for sitters and the, "It's family, we should get a break" discount, I would suggest $75.

  I just retread this. I was dyslexic this am and thought it was 6-9, not 9-6. At least $90.

  I was thinking $50 based off average DC but I wanted to make sure it was enough. I know food was sent but regardless. I'll give her $60 since it's easier to withdrawal. I just didn't want to low ball. Thank you
