Are You Looking For A Babysitter?

Not looking for a babysitter, thanks. My daughter's going to be babysitting and doesn't know what to charge as she usually only does it for family and friends for nothing.

I would suggest at the Very Minimum £5.00 Per Hour or Part of Hour, plus Taxi fare home.

Mrs Kodiak says that is not enough and double that would be more correct.
