The mother always seems to be out till at least 6 a.m. Although she always seems to only pay me about 20 to 30 dollars for about 10 hours. What should I be charging her?    Report

Are you sleeping during that time?  (I know it seems like a dumb question, but you'd be surprised.) I'd say you've earned at least $50 for a job like that. *Love in Christ from Mary* 1 Peter 2:4-5 Vote my agency, Seminole Sitters, the "Best Overall Business" in Tallahassee for the 2007 Tally Awards at EverythingTallahassee.com!!!    Report
