[quote=Anonymous]I don't think it's a dumb question! First of all, you should figure out a range of what you're willing and able to pay. If someone said "I charge $20 an hour" you'd probably feel like that was too much, right? So get a sense of whether it's $10/hour but you'd be okay paying up to $13/hour...just for example. Then you can offer the less-qualified folks the lower end, and the more-qualified on the higher. If someone replies to your lower offer with "I usually get $11/hour" then you have an answer. If this is truly a mother's helper (i.e. middle/high schooler) I'd also suggest asking his/her parents what they usually get paid. [/quote]
