How much would you pay someone for daycare?

I placed an ad - and I was wondering what you think is a fair price to pay someone to come to my home and watch a 1 yr old - it's from about 9:15 to around 5:00 - and I come home for lunch so they can leave for 45 min. if they'd want -
Price per day - b/c I only need it about 2 days a week.
What if they want me to bring her to them - should I change the price - or should it stay the same?
Thanks.

Re: How much would you pay someone for daycare?

Since I'm looking for PT work, someone suggested that I do childcare too. I'm glad to see this post with the going rates. I have to figure out where to advertise, it would have to be at me house since I have Lyla. And, I would also do it only for 2-3 full days.

Question for moms:
would you mind sending your baby/child to my home if I already have a baby? I'm not sure if this bothers people or not, in terms of giving my baby more attention than their child, etc.
