I'm a former caregiver for adults with special needs. I love children and care alot for others. I'm the grew up in a big family being the oldest of 9 children. I love the outdoors, baking, and board games. I charge $20 an hour or $22 an hour for a kid 5 or under. For second kid it's $2 extra bucks or $3 if 5 or under. Kids with special needs or medical needs are $25 an hour and $5 extra for second. Light house hold cleaning, meal preps, or pet care is an additional fee when it isn't directly related to care for the child. I also charge .66 per mile for driving kids around, which is recommended by the irs. Walking a dog is flat $15 for a 30 minute walk.
