Child care rates?

[sarah-raz.livejournal.com]

I have a question for the parents and/or child care workers in the community. What is a reasonable rate to charge parents for babysitting? I'm a grad student looking to supplement my loans and TA job with some evening babysitting, but I haven't done any in the Boston area since I was in high school.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
