Those who drop their kids off at a babysitter..

roughly - how much do you pay per week? Feel free to FM me if you don't want to post.

I'm due in August and I am thinking of seeing if I can find a local babysitter to drop off Chat Icon at Monday - Friday.

I have an idea in my head but I want to make sure I am in the right range..

TIA Chat Icon

I was looking recently and it ranged from $40-$50 per day f/t. One home sitter I came across charged $75 for 5 hours which I thought was pretty steep.

Jayden's babysitter originally told us $25/day but we usually pay her $30-35/day since we pick him up around 6:30pm. He only goes two days a week.

I found mine on a bulletin board at the local Starbucks. It turns out my MIL taught her in 7th and 8th grade. She was also DH classmate.


I think the church bulletin is a good start. Also ask around for recommendations.
