A lady text me late last night asking about my rates. She said that she is starting a new job on Monday and would need a sitter for M-F 5:30am to 5pm for her 2 year old son.
My normal hours are 7:30am to 5:30p. I quoted her a price at a little higher than my normal rate since Id be getting up at 4:30am to be ready for them to arrive at 5:30am. She texts me back and says "Thats ok I have two other ladies that will do it for $75/Wk". So I text her back and said Good Luck. No way Id do it for $75/Wk. Best of luck with the new job.
What did she want me to babysit him for free??? I mean really almost 60 hours a week of childcare, feeding the child all day long, getting up in the middle of the night to do it and she wanted me to do it for less than $75 a week. No thanks! Next ............... I mean get real!
People amaze me!
