[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d say no every single time. You want to pay me, maybe we can talk. And maybe even then I’ll still say no. Not being a jerk, but in a pinch, make a babysitting offer. [b]$30-50 for a day. At least it pays for me to get an easy dinner for us, since I have less bandwidth to get stuff done.[/b][/quote] That's not nearly enough. You know they are making good money, while you are the one making it possible by watching their kid for them. They should split their salary with you-50/50. So for someone making $200,000/year, that's about $650 per day (before taxes.) I'd want at least $250 to watch the kid for the day. If this parent didn't want to pay me that, they can arrange for real childcare (nanny/daycare) instead.[/quote]
