NDR-related: Parents - cost of overnight babysitter
I babysit on nights and weekends and was asked to overnight babysit for one of my families. The kids are elementary school age and pretty self sufficient (though I will be making all of the meals, etc.) The parents will be gone for about 24 hours (from early afternoon to afternoon). I usually charge $10 an hour, regardless of the number of kids or time of babysitting, but I know that $240 would be a ridiculous amount to charge.
So, any idea what a reasonable flat fee would be in this situation? Should I just email back and ask what she had in mind?

Re: NDR-related: Parents - cost of overnight babysitter
I'm jealous of your $15 an hour and currently seeing the extra pairs of shoes I could buy if I upped my rate.
Thank you for the advice! I was really lost as to what to charge.
Could you do 8 hours (sleep time) at half-price, since you are sleeping but technically on duty in case of emergency.
I am also interested in what you would charge for a weekend or several day gig.
Does the price ge "cheaper-by-the-dozen", so to speak. In other words, the longer you stay does the price get cheaper?
