A caregiver fee would depend on where you are located. Fees are based on how many hours the caregiver stays. Usually they charge for a few hours at a time. For example, you could hire a caregiver for 3 hours at 18 dollars an hour. However, hiring them for 1 hour would be 24 dollars. That is a approximated fee, I saw in Florida, 2011. It is double that in Arizonia.
