A friend has asked you to babysit on Saturday and wants to know how much you charge per hour for this. Unfortunately, you already have a commitment this weekend and cannot help. However, you are free the following weekend.

I hope this letter finds you well.

I appreciate you considering me to babysit for you this Saturday. However, I regret to inform you that I already have a prior commitment on that day and will not be able to help out. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

On a brighter note, I am available to babysit for you the following weekend. I would be more than happy to assist you with looking after your little one then. Please let me know if that works for you.

In terms of my fee for babysitting, I typically charge $10 per hour. I believe this is a fair rate considering the quality of care and attention I provide. I hope this aligns with your budget.

I look forward to hearing from you soon and hopefully being able to help out next weekend. Take care.
