Not only is it under the table and therefore tax free, but it's only 2 hours a day and you could actually get another job in the mornings and make even more money this way. I pay $5 an hour for latch key care for two kids. I'd say the agreement has some to do with just how she worded it though. If she said "I'll pay you what we would pay if they were extended care, which I think is $75", but that didn't end up being the amount, then it's partially your fault for not firming that up before quitting your other job. If she said "I will definitely pay you $75", then it's different! But, talk to her. Chances are the $15 will be worth it to her to keep you. Learning to negotiate with a boss is an important skill!

PS. If I were you, I'd work both jobs, 5 hours a day and make twice the cash!
