How much should I charge for child care?

*Due 12/16/09 With Baby #2* asked:


I’m 10 weeks pregnant (with my second child) and I’m in need of some extra income. I was thinking of running an ad for child care in my home. I was planning on watching only up to age 5. I’m planning on providing meals and snacks and teaching them colors, numbers, shapes, letters depending on what they already know… How much should I charge? And I will watch them any hours so if they need me to watch them over night should I charge extra? Thanks for your help!
