    It really depends on cost of living, and upkeep, and if you are just babysitting, or have an in home daycare.

    Back in TN, I made the utter mistake of only charging a parent I knew from a daycare $60 a week. But that's literally all she could afford. But I watched her 3 children for that. One s.a, one 3yo and one 2yo. But she paid when I took them out and she provided the food for both me and the kids. I was working a real job at the time of being thier non-live-in nanny, so it didnt hurt me financially or anything.

        What I don't get is she uses Mother Goose Time ( that isn't cheap) and her age group is 6 weeks-2 years; no offense, but how can babies do those projects?

                she makes $135 a day... $675 a week working 5 days and $945 working 7... That's between $2700-$3780 a month and she only wants to pay $100 a week?! Some people have a terrible sense of priority.

                  So if you take your child to her on Friday morning and can leave them until Saturday morning, at $15 daily, that's .62 cents hourly.
                  Hey, Coolconfidentme, maybe your daycare mom can send her kid to this lady. She has taken care of kids with eczema. bwahahaha

                            I like that her husband is her driver. For when they go. On trips.

                            That WAS painful to read, I agree.

                              The ad does say overnight parents. Maybe they are the former dc parents of the poster (forgive me, I can't remember his name) that said he hung out with dc parents once and they wanted more than just a friendly night out...
