ok i want to know what you guys think i
babysit 3 boys from 2:30 p.m-8 to 8:30
p.m. mon thru thursday i pick 1 up from
preschool 2 days a week and another from
shcool 4 days a week . 1 is in diapers and
they are always (sorry tmi diarreah) and i
tell her it is also in contract that i do
not watch if they are sick or have
diarreah but she keeps dropping them off
anyway they are always sick (the 2
youngest) which gets my lil ones sick so
then i have to miss work at the school
cause of my kids being sick and she still
drops them off even then saying oh im
running late gotta go and off she goes so
i cant stop her argh but anyway i charge
2.00 an hour and im thinking oops (per
child 2.00 an hour)of raising my rate to
3.00 an hour the first of the year and
giving her a note stating the rate change
would you guys be upset if your sitter did
that??

I think you should give her a notice of at
least one month. That way she can budget
and plan with Christmas coming.
I would completely agree though, you
shouldn't need to watch them when they are
sick! You should tell her you charge extra
for diarreah diapers! And save them up for
her so you can show her when she picks up

How old are the kids? Here for kids in
diapers, you are paying about $850 a
month. Out of diapers it goes down to
around $600. Newborns are over $1000.
