To ask what you would pay for this?

[SequinsAndGlitter]

Needing someone to come to the house at 7.30AM, look after a 7 year old and walk 7 year old to school for 8.45AM.
£5 too low, £10 too high?

Is this what someone is wanting to pay you OP?

Why would you think £5 is ok! I got that babysitting for an hour when I was 13.

I would say £20.

£20 a day if it was one or two days a week.
£15 a day if it was for the five days.

This is making me laugh. I mean I agree, but most don't pay minimum wage per hour for a nursery or childminder.

£20 to make it worth anyone's while

I can't believe £5 is even listed as an option!

At least £15 to make it worth their time to turn up for more than an hour and then take the child to school
Any less and it’s not worth their time tbh

Living wage at the least.

A fiver for an hour and a quarter is below min wage and just plain wrong.

£20

£15/20

if its a one off I would say £15
regular with the inconvenient hours £20 per day.

At least £15, maybe £20.

At LEAST £10. Probably 12-5 depending on area. £5 is below NMW

I hired someone to do this five days a week, and they started out at £60 a week, which rose to £75 over time. It was 5 years ago however, and we're in London.

My husband has recently lost his job due to Covid and has a current DBS check - he would do it for £75 a week. Let me know if you want to hire him

£12- £15 if it’s a friend. £20-£25 if it’s a child care professional with DBS.

How long do you need this person's services for? You need to pay at least NMW for each hour.

Really it depends on what someone is prepared to do it for. I'd say £60 a week but in this climate you might find someone prepared to do it for less.

Definitely more near £20. Wouldn’t expect anyone to do it for under £15. It’s not great hours and then a walk as well. Also does the adult then need to walk back to get their car or will they have to travel on transports/long walk to get to you in the morning? Is the adult happy about the 20 minute walk?

You also need to run a payroll for them you are employing them
If they are self employed then they would set their own rate.

Sorry, just realised what hours you need.
Probably £20.

£15 - if school is 20 minute walk they will be working 7.30am-9.05am. 1.5 hours @ £10 per hour.

£5 🤣

I think you need to allow for their time to walk back to to your house, that rounds up to 2 hours, 2 hours at minimum wage (assuming they're over 25 or whatever the cut off is now) comes to just under £17.50.

Sorry I somehow read that school starts at 9am!

I still think at least £15 as a bare minimum.
