[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks all. Upon reading all the replies, I agree the approach of individually responding with her new rate when she's next contact by each client makes the most sense. FWIW, I believe the minimum wage was $10 or so in VA when she began, and part of selecting that rate was my feeling that a middle schooler new to babysitting probably shouldn't be making more than an adult in a minimum wage job, potentially supporting dependents. Of course, she probably should have updated the rates sooner, so we'll consider the input on how much her new rate should be![/quote] Worst case a family drops her but there will be more to replace. $15 an hour for a 15 year old given what minimum wage is, is reasonable.[/quote]
