Her child is in my custody as well,.[/quote]

are you sure about this?  Obviously you are in a much better position to know this than some random person on the internet but quite frankly that really surprises me and runs counter to my experience as a foster parent.   generally the teen is in foster care, the baby is the care of the teen since the baby has not been abused or neglected.
If the teen mom has abused or neglected the baby the baby is generally placed elsewhere.

I hear you about the chores- which is why I think it is important to establish whether the baby is your responsibility or hers.  If the baby is hers, you are not asking her to sweep your floors, you are bartering for babysitting services.  You could even let her propose something--   ie I can keep the baby for you for 2 hours so you can ago to the dance, but that takes 2 hours of my time that I would otherwise be making diner/ cleaning, what have you- so what would you oike to do to make up that time?[/quote]

Yes. We are in a gray area because as you illustrate, this situation is not typical.[/quote]
