Most of the time she'd be sleeping, which I think is fair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overnight-babysitting-rate#post-288196 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 08:22:26 +0000 ohapostrophe 288196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: just a one-time thing (well I could see it possibly happening again but not regularly). We are going to a wedding overnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overnight-babysitting-rate#post-288194 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 08:17:19 +0000 looch 288194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it a regular thing or a one time event? I think if you offer a flat rate, it would go over better as a one time event. If it could be a regular thing, then I'd stick to hourly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overnight-babysitting-rate#post-288179 Sun, 09 Sep 2012 08:01:14 +0000 ohapostrophe 288179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes he does...he would be asleep for about 11 of those hours overnight, (plus another 5+ for naps but I'd pay her normally for those daytime hours i think). It would be $384 if we paid hourly. I'm thinking of offering $300 flat...is that reasonable? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overnight-babysitting-rate#post-287952 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 23:02:53 +0000 Mrs. Pen 287952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: oooh good question!</p> <p>I would say same rate as long as she is allowed to sleep over. And, as mrsbird said, more if your LO doesn't sleep thru the night yes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overnight-babysitting-rate#post-287951 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 23:02:38 +0000 singingbee 287951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was housesitting and overnight babysitting, I was paid $75-100 per night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overnight-babysitting-rate#post-287949 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 23:00:16 +0000 mrs. bird 287949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does LO sleep through the night? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/overnight-babysitting-rate#post-287945 Sat, 08 Sep 2012 22:54:30 +0000 ohapostrophe 287945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What would you pay for 9am Saturday-5pm Sunday? It's our regular nanny who often babysits for us on weekends as well. We've always paid her the hourly rate but I'm wondering if we need to do that for overnight...? </p>
