[quote=Anonymous]Obviously there is no "verifiable" market rate listed in any sector beyond minimum wage but there is a market rate in this area for childcare and it's pretty easy to figure out- for one thing if you post on these Nanny sites like Care.com looking for a few hours a week you will quickly find out the market rate based on the responses you get from the range you list. The lower you offer the less responses you get and the less interest. Around here no one will babysit your kid for less than $15 an hour because it wouldn't be worth your time, gas, and headache. If you want to attract someone to do it then you list an attractive offer- or see what the people you interview want- if the person you want wants more then you pay them or hire the person willing to do it. That said $20 an hour is decent.[/quote]
