drove them to school, shopped, everything. Took time off work to do it. It was her first time so I forgive her for not settling on a price. They paid her $400. She won't make that mistake again. 😉

How much to charge for 72 straight hours of babysitting 5 kids?

Not enough

My wife just said she hoped they sleep through the night

100 per day is what I would say.

No chance as a 20 year old I’m doing that for $300

Agreed that is $4 an hour for 5 kids

I wouldn’t either. But I know plenty of 20 year old females who would.

500 to 600 total

$150 a day sounds fair. $100 is too low

Here’s one way to look at it

You would have to factor in a daycare is a business and has to cover overhead.

375/week? Geez. That’s crap wages.

Yeah man, you should look into an au pair.

How many kids was that $1000 for?

BYUforlife

5/15/19 9:55pm

4. Ages 3-10.

I would say 100 per kid per day. That’s just over $4/hr.

1500 for 3 days?

If they’re going on a cruise, $450 a day.
