3) Babysitter needed TONIGHT (Detroit)
Hello, my name is Jessica. I live in Sterling Heights near 16 mile and Van Dyke. I am looking for a babysitter TONIGHT to watch my son who is 5 months old. My son was born prematurely so he is developmentally the same as a three month old, and the size of a three month old, but has no special needs or disabilities. We are looking for someone to watch him for 3-5 hours in our home, and you must have reliable transportation and your own cell phone. Punctuality is a must, and you must be 16+, sorry I'm uninterested in anyone younger than that.
Rates are negotiable based on experience. You name your rate and your reasoning for it. Keep in mind he will sleep through most of your shift. If you call me as soon as you read this then I'll gladly interview you over the phone and have you come over, we need a sitter ASAP...TONIGHT! I know this is last minute, but we had something come up and need to leave and don't have family that can watch him.
Upon your arrival I will need to see your driver's license and copy down any information I feel relevant. You may not bring anyone with you, or have guests, including your own children.
Please call me, NO EMAILS!
Ask for Jessica - 586-329-****
If you come through for me tonight I promise there will be more work to come quite often, although there will not be a schedule. Just random, sporadic scheduling for you.

17) Part time sitter for 8yo child (Denver)
I am looking for someone to watch my boyfriend's daughter while I am at work. I do not know what my schedule will be since it is entirely dependent on whether I have someone to watch her, but I am trying to do Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.
I could need you as early as 8:30 AM and could be gone as late as 9:30 PM with the exception of Fridays I will be trying to be home by 5:30 PM.
I would let you know what my schedule is as soon as we confirm that you would be a reliable sitter and thus can put in for time at work.
I would prefer to find someone to come to my place to watch her. My dad will be in and out. She is fairly independent and easy to watch. I will provide some simple snacks or frozen lunches so you only need to do light cooking. She may go outside and play with the neighbors or ride her bike, but I would prefer she not leave the complex for any reason. You may feel free to watch TV or movies so long as they are appropriate for her to watch as well. (Keep it under PG-13.)
I work part-time at minimum wage so I cannot afford to pay much. If you know any responsible teens or young adults looking for some summer cash, I would be willing to speak with them as well.
Must be at least 16, but would prefer 18 or older. Must have own transportation. Bus is acceptable. Punctuality is necessary.

I will provide food/drinks and toys if needed and could pay up to $90 a week m-f 6am to 4pm is the hours im looking at.

Im not the kind of mohter who is looking for someone to teach my kids anything, all i ask for is supervision especiall with the baby since he just started crawling and likes to climb onto things and tend to fall but never cries, ive always been told my boys are the happiest easy going kids ever!!! if you could help me out i would really like to hear from you either by email or yes im on facebook and you can get an idea of our life style. only thing i ask is you be at least 20yrs or older!

27) RE: Nanny Needed (Minneapolis)
Last I checked, minimum wage was NOT less than $5/hour. I would not trust someone willing to accept such low wages to watch my children. Good luck, lady.....

28) RE: Nanny Needed (Minneapolis)
To the person who replied to the original post:
I'm sorry but for what she is asking that is the going rate for a nanny as well as a home daycare. Especially for a schoolager, and 2 preschool age. Yes when you break it down it is only 5 dollars an hour but I do home daycare and on average when you break down the weekly rates it is close to 3 an hour. Don't you have anything better to do than pick on other peoples post. For someone who is 18-20 that is good money. You should mind your own business and stay out of others!
URL: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/kid/1841893975.html
29) RE: Nanny Needed (Minneapolis)
No, $5 an hour CASH is not only an unacceptable rate for an in-home nanny of 3 kids (the going rate for an experienced, qualified person is $15/hr), it is an insult AND illegal to pay "CASH!!!" Maybe you are looking for an illegal SLAVE, but clearly not a competent, qualified, experienced or caring person for your precious children.... No wonder the other nanny wants to quit a.s.a.p!!!
URL: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/kid/1842178401.html
30) RE: Nanny Needed (Minneapolis)
Try doing the math again please. It is a 46.25 hour work week, which translates to $4.97/hour. And daycare providers get to stay at home. They don't waste time with travel and gas, plus wear and tear on their car. If the mom wants to pay so little, she needs to find an in-home daycare. Not a professional nanny. If you are going to hire a babysitter for that cheap, you get what you pay for.
URL: http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/dak/kid/1842340884.html
31) RE: Nanny Needed (Minneapolis)
It is a bit low considering you are having them come to your house instead of you bringing them to their house. I (daycare provider) normally would charge about 10.00 a day for the 5 year old = $50/wk and then I would charge 110.00/wk for the 4 year old, and then 120.00/wk for the 2 year old so all in all it would normally cost $1120 a month but most providers offer a discount for multiples. Mine would be 20.00 off a week so on average I would charge 1040.00 month
I do think that the price should be raised a bit, as it is hard to make ends meet with the prices of everything raised out there. To be fair you said you live in a 4br,3ba TH with a pool accessible...and you live in Shakopee, which is a nice area. I think you could afford to raise the pay a bit for loving and caring care that your children will get with a Nanny. These people are right, nannies do average $10.00-$15.00/hr on average. Therefore if you were actually charged $10/hr by a nanny you would be looking at paying $80.00 a day for 3 kids, cleaning, laundry, cooking...= $400 wk =$1600.00/mo
With the extra duties that a nanny does, what i listed above is not unreasonable for 2.5 kids even. Babysitters make more than $5.00/hr and they come to your house play with the kids, put them to bed and eat your food.
I am just saying you need to be more flexible with pay than what you are. I think you would be a great parent to work for, I just think the price is wrong, that is all.

32) RE: Nanny Needed (Minneapolis) - OP
I've been biting my tongue on this one...
My current nanny also has a 2 year old that she brings along with her every day. She loved this opportunity because it allowed her to be with her child and have money on the side for fun stuff! This isn't a job that involves endless hours of flipping burgers, or brewing coffee, or dealing with nasty customers (which some could probably pick out those types from this site). It is more about having some fun with some kids, watching movies, going on nature walks and hanging out poolside (with life jackets of course). Don't get me wrong, kids are a lot of work, but it is a different kind of work and can be rewarding for the right personality.
I will perform a full background check, check references and go with my gut during the hiring process. I'm not worried. This is my second time around, and it worked out great the first time. This would be a great opportunity for the right person.
Like I tell my kids "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all"...

* Response to OP from CL reader:
33) RE: Nanny Needed (Minneapolis)
Just to let you know that daycare providers can take in 10-12 kids, so really $3 dollars and hour per kid would really mean you are earning between $30-36 an hour!!! The "going" rate for nannies is between 10-15 dollars an hour. Daycare is not the same as having a nanny. I was a professional nanny for 12 years and when I finally retired to have my own children, I was getting paid $20 an hour. Nanny's have to go to their home, the parents don't have to get kids ready for daycare, the nanny does light cleaning and cooking as well as some run errands and run the households. $230 is not a lot for a nanny of 3 children. With the hours requested this is less than mininum wage, nannies still have to pay taxes just like a daycare without the ability to claim a LOT of things. This is less than what would be paid at a daycare, but with the benefits of having someone come to your home.
You may want to look into having an AUPAIR, they earn a wage around $200 a week with room and board.
