Child care can be extremely expensive, but you get what you pay for. That's a lesson these delusional parents haven't learned yet. We compiled the funniest babysitter job postings from cheap parents, parents with unreasonably high standards and just crazy parents. Enjoy!

I wouldn’t think most people with a military background are interested in going into childcare, especially for little pay.

If this parent is only expecting to pay $2 an hour, they can’t really be too picky about the number of pets in their sitter’s house.

I can see why her current babysitter only sits on the couch. What more do you want for $20 a day?

Honey, I don’t think yelling at a facebook group is really going to help fulfill all of your impossible demands for a sitter.

College educated who will work for $12 an hour? Good luck.

A hundred bucks a week barely covers all of the vegan food this parent wants their sitter to buy for their own kids.

Please work 11 hours a day AND pick up AND drop off my kids. Thanks!

Lol, what? Are they serious with all of these demands? I would love to meet a single person who fits that criteria.

Hmm, I wonder why her old babysitter stopped responding to her texts.

Yeah, that does sound pretty hard to find.

This parent wants someone who is available Monday through Friday 6am to 7pm who is also currently in college…

Watch my son who might be certifiably crazy for peanuts. Oh and pay for his food.
