[quote=Anonymous]Were they asking you to babysit because they know that's what you do, and they wanted a babysitter, or were they asking you to babysit because they had some emergency or legitimate scheduling difficulty where they needed help to meet their childcare obligations? If it's the first, I'd tell them your actual rate and explain that you don't do much evening sitting unless it's worth your while, because your time is more valuable. If it's the second, then I think helping out a neighbor is a good thing, as long as you make it clear that's what you're doing so that you're not suddenly their cheap babysitter for life.[/quote]
