I watch a two year old boy about 35 hours per weeks for $150 in Denver, CO. This is an excellent price. Most in-home child care providers charge $8-$15/hour here. I am child CPR certified. However I do not need a license to watch one child, so I do not have one. After we move into a larger house (in 2 months) I am setting up for child care and will obtain a license at that time in order to watch another child.
My question is this... The boy I watch needs care as early as 2 am, and sometimes overnight. NO child care centers even have the option to leave your child overnight, so what should I be charging for that time? Should I do an hourly rate of $5/hour for regualar hours & $7/hour for night?
