Every state has childcare rates either hourly or per day, you should look up what the going rates our in your area and remember that these are certified centers and/or people so your going to have to come down a bit from what they charge, credentials=$$$.

Answer #6

That’s interesting,

I just got laid off from a job that paid just $8.00. It would cost me  a day's wages to hire you  for just 4 hours. I had to pay taxes out of that $8.00. 

($8 X 8 - taxes = $4 X $15) .

Something to think about, my first wife and I had twins, when they were babies we got a sitter, an experienced sitter at that. We went out for two hours in the afternoon shopping with plans to go to dinner that evening. When we got home from shopping I did not know who was crying the hardest - the sitter or the babies!! Took the sitter home and had dinner at home. After that we ALWAYS had TWO sitters with no more problems. Oh, before the twins were one year - we had another -three in one year! We needed those Two sitters.
