dinneenp · 2017-06-10 17:25:00

Hi, We're getting a 17 year old to mind our kids And few days a week over the summer. Kids are 7 and 10,she doesn't need to make lunch, just heat up up food. Hours 9.30 to 4.30, she lives v nearby. What's normal daily rate for this please? I've heard €40 or €50 from a few people. Cheers.

€10 per hour if it's in your home. Are you registered as employers? You'll need to be, we have a minder in our home.

As you'll be her employer legally it should be minimum wage. I'm not sure what that it for under 18s though.
