I babysit crazy kids regularly and I threaten to call their parents and I goes alot better afterward. I also play video games with the boys and they enjoy it more, they said that I was their favorite babysitter ever.

Hey Everyone!
What is the average amount of money you should get paid an hour for babysitting one 3 yr old boy? I think I am being under-paid! Frown

If anyone knows I would appretiate an answer! Thanks!

 MOD
My mom and dad never pay me to babysit my younger sister...My family's closest friends don't have young kids, they're all in their 20s and 30s....almost all my neighbours are seniors...I have no one to babysit. My friends all have close family and friends with cousins and stuff and they all have people to babysit, except me...how am I supposed to find a babysitting job like this??




Hey girlie! Tell your Mom that you want to babysit, and she can spread the word to her friends!

A couple of years ago I made the mistake of letting go of one of my babysitting jobs (all because the little boy was out of control) I didnt even mean to never get a job again but if the mom asks you if you can babysit three nights in a row don't be an ignorant eleven year old and say that you have to stay after school those days...
