Babysitting charge???

I've been asked by a friend's friend's friend to baby sit for their 18 month old and 3 and a half year old children while they attend a wedding. It's from 7 until 11 and it'll be in their hotel room. It's about 40 minutes drive away. How much should I charge?! Is it cheeky to ask for travel time or cost too?

Are you an adult? I'd do it for a bottle of wine to take home. I wouldn't feel comfortable asking for money. If you're a teenager then maybe £20?

I'd pay £40 for someone to do that for my 2 kids - if it was a close friend then probably would just return the favour but doesn't sound like that's the case here
