summerGIRL_xo answered Thursday March 2 2006, 3:52 pm: most people charge 6-10$ an hour. if theres a lot of kids, you should make it more. however, you could also let your employers decide. most of the time they will give you between 6 & 10 dollars an hour.
sweetgirl4u03 answered Friday February 24 2006, 1:56 am: Well, When i was babysitting like 7 years ago(i now nanny for an autistic boy but thats different, paid thru state) and i charged about 5 dollars an hour i think..but nowadays i would charge atleast minimum wage 7$/hr(min wage is i think 6.25 or somehtin) and babysitting is hard work, sometimes. If theres more than one kid i would charge extra. Like, maybe 2 or 3$ more per hour extra per kid maybe. Or if theyre easy and you know itll be easy then just keep it that low. And if its a toddler, maybe charge more. Hope this helps!! (I put a flyer out when i was babysitting, you should think of it! only in the areas you coudl bike to if you cant drive yet though, and im assuming you cant-flyers helped me alot:-) [ sweetgirl4u03's advice column | Ask sweetgirl4u03 A Question ]
bittersweet17 answered Tuesday February 21 2006, 9:59 pm: i would probably say $8.00 to $10.00 a kid. if they are really good and you need the money take what you can get but no less than $8.00 to $10.00
if they are hell then maybe you should charge a little more for all the prolbems. hope that helped [ bittersweet17's advice column | Ask bittersweet17 A Question ]
fabulous11 answered Tuesday February 21 2006, 8:25 pm: It depends on how many kids and the hours. Ask them and if they dont know then the normal range is like 6-10$ an hour. I usually get 10$ an hour for 2 kids, but whatever you are comfortable with. [ fabulous11's advice column | Ask fabulous11 A Question ]
xomegaroni answered Tuesday February 21 2006, 7:57 pm: most people who let you baby sit let you choose. depending on how many kids & how many hours you babysit for. i'd probably say around $7-10.
xoMarisox answered Tuesday February 21 2006, 6:57 pm: I get paid $10 per hour. Tell the people you charge between $6 and $10. Or just leave it up to them and say "Whatever you think." That's what I usually do. [ xoMarisox's advice column | Ask xoMarisox A Question ]
