The ideal rate for babysitting is as follows.

$6-8/hr.+gas -1 child
$10-12/hr.+gas. - 2+ children


Never ask the parents how much they think you should take it. They'll scam you.

the rate currently can go anywhere from $6-12... it depends on the family, number of kids, and your experience. if your just starting out, and they dont have tooo many kids, i would start with $8-10. the parents might give you a raise as you work for them longer, or they might ask to pay you a little less due to finacial situations. try to be flexible, because that shows maturity. :)

It really depends on how many kids you babysit, and how tough they are. If you're only babysitting one kid, and they're good, then maybe like $5 an hour. Maybe go up a dollar each kid or so. If you're babysitting for the night, say 7-12, you should probably earn about $20. I never set a rate, they just give me whatever, and it's always pretty fair.

There aren't really 'rates'. It all just depends on the family you're babysitting for, how many hours you work, how many kids they have, what you do while you're there, etc. I would say anything between $5-$10 an hour is pretty good. You should talk this out with them before you start. That way you can get an idea of how much you can earn.

-hope that helped!♥
