[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So...SAHM gets $12 but the nannies want $30/hr. Wow. [/quote] She's at her house, and it's babysitting, not nannying. $12/hr seems reasonable to me, too. Home daycares for full-time sitting with planned activities run about 250/wk for full-time care. This isn't even that formal, and that comes to about $6/hr.[/quote] Much less than minimum wage! She is still taking care of chld when child is awake! No less than $18/hr if you want to keep her. Make it worth her while and do not abuse her good will.[/quote] Op here: It seems a bit steep because I can find a babysitter who comes to me for the same price. We live in Florida. The rates are a lot less here. [/quote] I'd offer 10-12 if you are in FL and at her house, her normal activities. Make sure she wants to do it as not all SAHM's are willing or want to. She may do it out of pressure or feeling obligated or not comfortable saying no.[/quote]
