I prefer to pay a little higher because indeed, good sitters are hard to find. In our neighbourhood, there are very few kids who are bothered to babysit.CynthiaKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04960741754070312487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694371612802592988.post-47388278860998094952009-01-22T14:52:00.000-05:002009-01-22T14:52:00.000-05:00$10 an hour seems like a lot of money, but then, I...$10 an hour seems like a lot of money, but then, I think a lot varies by location too. About a year ago I babysat two kids after school and only charged $5 an hour.

I love our sitter but fear she'll be moving on to other things once she gets her license. We pay $10/hour for 3 kids and they're usually fed/in pjs/almost ready for bed when the sitter shows up. I think $10 is a good rate especially if she does more with the kids.jen@odbthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17669577977587833584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694371612802592988.post-80573881204049192532009-01-22T13:43:00.000-05:002009-01-22T13:43:00.000-05:00I too pay my babysitter $10 an hour, which seems l...I too pay my babysitter $10 an hour, which seems like a whole lot in comparison to what I use to make babysitting.Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16676968898443291140noreply@blogger.com
