I paid my nanny $170 per day when we went to Wellington, that was techically a 24 hour day but she didn't have to get up coz the kids slept thru.

I used to get about $50 for babysitting for about 4 or 5 hours. And that was from family friends.]]> Tue, 01 Apr 2008 13:21:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=341220&title=how-much-would-you-pay#341220 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=341003&title=how-much-would-you-pay#341003 Author: Kellz

or if you feel takeaways and a movie aren't enough then a nice gift basket would be good too - doesn't have to be big or expensive as it's the thought that counts!

Yeah if it was me doing the babysitting I'd be happy with takeaways and a couple of movies. I definitely wouldn't expect you to pay me what b/sitters would normally get.]]> Mon, 31 Mar 2008 15:56:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=340368&title=how-much-would-you-pay#340368 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=340230&title=how-much-would-you-pay#340230 Author: Kellz

If its a friend, then I guess you just come to an agreement which suits you both. If it were doing it for my friend, then paying for us to have takeaways to make the night easier would be enough for me!]]> Mon, 31 Mar 2008 14:10:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=340230&title=how-much-would-you-pay#340230 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=340178&title=how-much-would-you-pay#340178 Author: NovemberMum

if its a friend then I am sure they will do it for you much cheaper, ask her what she thinks its reasonable

Has she got kids? I always say if you have one you may as well have a whole bunch to look after! ]]> Mon, 31 Mar 2008 13:30:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=340172&title=how-much-would-you-pay#340172 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=340136&title=how-much-would-you-pay#340136 Author: NovemberMum

what about just a friend....she isnt a nanny..I cant see my husband agreeing to pay $200. guess it will depend on finances when the time comes(not for another year)

Yep I was gonna guess about $200. Through an agency it would be loads more Im sure.

When I was 17 I babysit a kid about that age for 12hrs, and I got $10 an hr, so $120. It was back in 1997 tho! Sorry that doesnt help at all really! But I wouldnt expect to be paid, or me to pay someone(now thatIm MUm of 17 month old)full rates overnight, unless they had to get up.]]> Mon, 31 Mar 2008 10:33:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=339996&title=how-much-would-you-pay#339996 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=15833&PID=339988&title=how-much-would-you-pay#339988 Author: NovemberMum
