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 at Monday - Friday.
I have an idea in my head but I want to make sure I am in the right range..
TIA

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.

Re: Those who drop their kids off at a babysitter..
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.

Re: Those who drop their kids off at a babysitter..
Thank you SO much
Now - Part 2: Where did you all find your sitters?
I am thinking of putting an ad out there. Maybe even putting up a notice on our church bulletin....

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.
