I do overnight for select families. The first time I have a new child I don't sleep well at all. Even if they sleep well I'm still very aware of them being here and find I'm constantly checking the monitor. It makes the next day hard to deal with a full day of daycare kids.

I charge a premium for after 6 and over night. I charge $40 for anything after 6. So, 6-9 = 40.00. I charge 55.00 for overnight care. And that is after dinner until before lunch. I charge more if I know the child is a bad sleeper.

I opened with the intent to do all of those crazy hours that no one else would do. I learned my lesson very quickly. LOL You have to really make sure you can handle having the kids around that much and working that much. It's not like your own kids, you are way more aware of someone elses kids being in your home.
