I'm not very booksmart, and I'm definately not street smart. However, if there's one thing I am, it's PEOPLE SMART. That's why I'm good with this whole advice thing. You can ask me ANYTHING and I'm always glad to help. There's almost no question I can't handle, so ask away. Make sure you RATE and leave FEEDBACK, so I can improve my advice.

I was mothers-helpering for my neighbor. I had no clue how much she should of paid me. When she gave me the money, I felt she over paid me. One time, for just an hour, she gave me $8. Today, for just 45 min, she gave me $6! Is this too much? (Mothers helpering is when you watch the kids while one of their parents are home) The kids didnt really require that much. There are 2 of them (one 1 year old and one 4 year old.) How much should she pay me per hour?


Also... when I babysit them.. how much should she pay me?

Don't feel bad getting overpaid, afterall the money does go to you. If you really do feel uncomfortable recieving that much for mothers-helping, tell her she doesn't have to give you that much and work from there. If your babysitting though, that is definately a reasonable amount. Hope this helps.
