Personally, I charge 7.50$ plus an extra 1$ for each additional kid. But that's only high because I leave the place clean and stuff when I leave. I usually play games and stuff with them too, so it's an add on.

I think it depends on how long you babysit and whos kids your babysitting and how old they are if its a relative i let them choose my pay.
I normally do $25 dollars a day for two kids because it evens itself out and its not to expensive and more people are gonna want you to babysit

say if you only had one child it should be 5 dollars an hr. and you should double the money depending on how many childern there is that's one way

another way is depending on hours you are with kids and how kids there actually is

i babysit two girls who are 3 and 5 and i get $8 an hour.

so if its one child i'd go with about $6 and if its two kids go for $8.

I charge between 6 and 8 dollars an hour.
And yes, I'd charge more with extra kids.
Maybe a dollar more like you said =]

i usually take whatever i'm offered and if they ask for a charge i just say i dont have one. they usually end up around 5 an hour for like three kids (for me) sometimes a little more or a little less.

well you dont want to overprice the amount per hour but you dont want to make it so little that you end up with barley anything in your pocket by the end of the sitting. Yeah you should probably add a dollar for an extra kid. so for like 2 kids it would be reasonable for like 9.50 an hour.
