Just imagine if you work 8hr and she watches you baby for 8hrs and charges 40$ lol thatās a lot 320$ 
Your sister needs to put the coocoo back in the clock because you can send your child to day care for way cheaper

I do $20 a day for a weekly rate, otherwise if itās just a 1 time thing I do 8-10 an hour
Hopefully she meant $40 a day thatās around what I pay for my son to go to a daycare where they provide all the food for him granted the daycare is provided by my work
Would take care of my 3 nephews for a whopper. Lol

In my area thatās what we pay for like an 8 hour day. Fuck for 40 an hour Iām in the wrong business.
What lolā¦damn. I should quit my job and be a babysitter! 
Thatās more an hour than most professional positions get paid if you put it into perspective. Thatās ridiculous, even more so for a family member. $20 a Day is more like it!

When I used a sitter I paid 40 a day for 8-9 hours and they provided everything. I damn sure wouldnāt pay 40 an hour thatās just crazy. Shoot id quite my job for a 40 an hour baby sitting gig tho
Omg 
3 kids where Iām at depending on age is $75 to 100 per day.
Min wage is my go to.
40 is unacceptable. You can go to a day care for that much.

Absolutely not. Do you make $40 an hour? You can find better child care.
I charge $20-$25 a day for a weekly rate for one child depending on age, this is with food provided. If itās a one time thing more like $20 for 4 hours or so.
You need to get a new sister.

If its so you can go work then yeah you should pay. People have lives and as long as is cheaper than daycare than i donāt see an issue. If itās just for a couple of hours sheās crazy.
Woah shes waxinnnā ya
Better check and make sure it wasnt 40 a day. 40 hr is outrageous!
Your sister should do it for free!
No not at all. I pay 20 a day for my 1 year old and she has my 6 year old before and after school

I paid no more than $25 a day for age 0-3.
Thatās ridiculous. Way to much. Iād say depends on how many hours she would watch your kid $10 if is more than 50 $20 if is less than 5 hours.
Thatās ridiculous. So an 8 hour day would cost you $320. Are you sure she didnāt mean $40/day? Even $40/day is expensive if sheās not licensed. I charge $25/day for a full day.
$40 a hour. WTF I need that job.
Lol I pay like 9 an hour and they provide food
$40 a hour! 
I charge $10 a hour ( I only babysit family & close friends) All they bring is diapers etc but I donāt charge to fed themā¦

An hour do you mean 4
Your own sister 
shame on her
I charge $15 an hour plus $2 per extra kid. Babysitting isnāt to be taken lightly. If the kids are older, I only charge $10 plus $1 per extra. Any kid under 6 though is $15.
Made good money in high school babysitting like that.
$40 an hour is too expensive, thatās more like a nanny position lol

When my daughter was in a licensed daycare it was $40 a day. Food was included and that was from 7-5.
my sister in law watches my 4 year old for 9 hours a day for $20 and she provides food and sometimes keeps her over night. she does learning exercises and educational time, letās them swim and takes them all kinds of places. $20 per DAY not hour
Iāve been a daycare provider for years. 1st. She doesnāt want to babysit for you, come thatās more than you make an hour and she knows it. 2. Thatās what I would charge for an entire day.

$40 an hour??? Omg I babysit for 20 a day.
That is a good rate if it is 4 but 40 is a real great rate
What do you do for a living
No!!! If you work an 8hr day thatās $320 a day! Thatās wayyyyyy too much.

Look at is this way. $40/hr at 8 hours is $320/day. For 5 days thatās $1,600/week. Thatās $6,400/month.
My sisterās newborn (3 months old) attends daycare for that same amount of time and she pays $2,400 per month and they provide food for the older children. They are also educating them.

If Iām able to watch my niece and nephew Iām not gonna charge first of all. Just as long as I am home and able to that dayā¦
Seems kind of high like real daycare prices
Umm no.
I get $200 a week. $40/day. $5 an hour. I provide all my own supplies and this is not my neice.
Plus she gets every ounce of my attention bc shes the only one I have. My kids are school age.

I believe in paying your babysitter good but, wow, thatās a little overboard here in the south, in my opinion anyway
15 to 25 a day depending on how long
That crazy. My sister charges $10 an hr
Is that a joke? So let me get this straightā¦ She wants $40 an HOUR while the rest of us are stuck making $15 an hour ? Sounds pretty legit & sheās family ? Get outta here.

At $40, she either doesnāt really want the job or to help you out or she meant a day not an hour and you all have some communication clearing up to do. Seems more reasonable to get $5 an he for $40 for an 8 he day and yes, you provide the food. That way your toddler is fed what you know is good for her and what she needs! Talk to your sister again. If she canāt help you on occasion for free or for bit less on occasion to help you out, then you might want to hire a non family member or do a state assessed/ licensed place. You donāt say if it is just for occasional baby sitting or as a 5 day a week job. It does make a difference. To have someone do it regularly, you may need to pay more.
