Babysitting?

Do any of you bring your child to a private home for daycare/babysitting instead of a center?

If you wouldn't mind, even in FM, what do you pay for a full-time week? hourly? etc.

I am looking to possibly do this from my home and was wondering what the "going" rates seem to be.

BTW if anyone is interested or in need of a babysitter for when they go to work, please feel free to FM me.

I am a certified 7-12 math teacher who can't get a job on LI lol, and was a certified EMT for many years. Great references also!

But yea, not to get off task if anyone would share some info I would appreciate it!!!

THanks a bunch!

When I was looking at our options, I was given rates ranging generally from from 12 - 15 per hour. It was more if I wanted the person to come to my home, instead of bringing DD there. Also, the people who were watching more than 1 child (at their home) tended to charge lower.

Here is a link to Craigslist.com's daycare section for Long Island. You may be able to get some info from there.
