[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, there is a difference in salary and commitment between being a nanny and being a baby sitter.  Sounds like your kid is a babysitter.  https://www.care.com/cost/babysitters/new-york-ny[/quote]

[b]Seriously? [/b]

If someone is asking you to watch their twins 4x/week from 7-6, they are seeking a nanny and should be paid a nanny rate. Just wanting to call it a babysitter so you can pay a lower rate doesn't make it a babysitter job.[/quote]

Yes, there is a difference. OP needs to figure out whether her kid is a babysitter or a seasonal nanny and post accordingly[/quote]

OP here. It's a friend's kid not mine.

Kid posted for babysitting. As per my post and the kid's ad, the kid is very clear about this being seasonal/short term. This was the first hit and kid declined due to pay/hours. Think it shows more that some folks really do not want to pay an appropriate wage for a nanny.

My friend and her kid were in my apartment when the kid returned the call, so it was very clear what was going down.[/quote]
