[quote=Anonymous]I can see the other parent’s point: when you babysit for her, presumably you were giving all your attention to her kid. Now you would have 2 other kids and be in another house, so your attention is split and she would be reasonable to think that should be a lower rate. If for example you get $10 from each share family (for a $20 combined rate) and your usual babysitting rate is $15, she might well think she should pay at most $10. However, I sense you are not eager to take the job anyway and this is much more of a favor to her in a pinch than it is an opportunity for extra cash for you. So quote her a rate high enough that you will be happy to take the kid if she says yes, but low enough that you won’t be disappointed with the foregone money if she says no.[/quote]
