What are all the questions you wished you would have asked a family before you excepted a position? Feel like I'm forgetting everything, probably due to holiday stress lol

~ Hourly rate
~ Paid in cash or check/How often
~ What household chores, if any, are expected
~ Is lunch provided or are you expected to bring your own lunch every day?
~ Does child have any food allergies known?
~ Is T.V./screen time allowed? If so, how much per day?
~ Is driving on the job allowed? If so, will you be reimbursed for mileage at the current IRS rate?
~ Does the family have any back-up childcare in the event that you have to call in ill?

If the family has not presented you with most of this information before you have to accept or not, I wouldn't work for them. Not thinking about whether to provide lunch is one thing, but not mentioning the hourly rate or job expectations seems like a family which doesn't know what it wants at all.
