I babysit occasionally and I charge $8 an hour. I only have one family as of right now, and I was babysitting for them quite often, but I haven't in a little over a month. I will probably babysit more for them in the summer. It's two kids: a girl(6) and a boy(8). If you need tips on babysitting just ask me(: Jess D.

For me it depends on how many kids and how old they are, if they are around 5 years old and there is one or 2 kids I usaully make $10 an hour.

Hello, Now if you don't like reading about people advertising their advice pages and clubs, don't read forward though you probably will anyway because your curious.

I have an advice queen page called rainyseattlegirl whether you need help on your next english paper or need inspiration for a novel I'm here to help. I have straights A's in english have written two novels and have won school writing contests.

I babysit for a family with 4 kids! They pay $2.50 per kid per hour! So I am making $10 an hour! 2/4 of the kids take naps half the day so I am getting off pretty easily! Smile

I don't have a set price I usually tell them they can charge whatever. That way you can get even more then if you set a price, but sometimes you might get charged less that way. Its risky but I would suggest it because I usually get between 8-10 per hr.. good luck! Smile
