[quote=Anonymous]I am quite surprised that you already have booked a sitter for the evening, yet you have not even discussed a rate w/her yet. This is a huge no-no on your part. Next time, make sure you both agree on a rate before you set something up. Anyway OP, it doesn't matter if your child will be awake or asleep. Understand that your sitter will still be 100% responsible for your child and that she will be on duty and not allowed to leave your home so she must be paid the same amount hourly that you would pay her if she was sitting for you in any other situation. It is completely unfair to expect to cut her rate down just because your child will be asleep. Responsibility is responsibility....No exceptions!! If she is young, say 16-18, then yes, $10/Hr would be fair. Adding some $$ to order dinner would be a nice extra on top too! :) For anyone older, I would start at $12-13 + up.[/quote]
