I'm looking for someone to take my DH to & from school this Sept, what do I charge? She will be going every other day so roughly 10 days a month. Full time daycare rates run $32-$38 a day in my area. Before and after school care runs $12.99-$15.00 but what to charge for just drop off and pick up?

Help!

If it's just an older child ( gr 7 or 8) then I would offer 25$ or 30$ a week especially if they are going in that direction anyway ... Thats a nice little bit of spending money for a 12-13 yr old

Oops I just reread your post and realize it's every other day .... So offer 5-7 $/day that she goes.....it probably only a 5-10 min walk

I know huh?? It's only an occasional thing right now, but wouldn't that be great for her if it became an every day thing?

I would charge the same as before and after school. It's a lot of work to pack up the rest of your daycare to drop children off.

I'm looking to pay someone else to drop off & pick up my daughter.

I may be a cheap-o but I think for a kid that age $20 a week is what I would charge and still feel that its a lot of money!

They should be happy....Sadly the spoiled generations of today may think they deserve more but I wouldn't give it.

Thanks! I'm thinking the same thats pretty mush $5.00 drop off and $5.00 pick up. I will pay the extra for everyother friday. So $100.00 a month I will charge. I wish it was me doing the drop off and pick ups! :( But to cart the whole daycare would be way too crazy!
