Babysitter...???

Question

I am almost 15 years old, and I babysit.

How much should I charge per hour???!!!

Answer 1

charge 65% of what min wage is where you live.

i.e= if its $5.00 per hr for an employer to pay his employee, charge $3.25 to babysit.

Answer 2

I charge 2.50 to 3.00 per kid.

Answer 3

I'm 13 & I charge depending on the kid. The first time for a new family, I start like  low, like at 10 dollars per hour. Then I see how easy the kid is tohandle. If the kids horrrribblee I higher 7-8 Like if the kid usally never listens and runs around I higher the price by like five dollars. If the kids alright and he listens but still does some trouble, I higher the prince by like 3. And if it's a well behaved kid, and doesn't do anything, I just leave the price. Usually the parents know if the kids bad and hard to handle and try to raise the price themselves because they feel bad, lol.

Answer 4

I would charge 20$ per kid for every 2 hours

Answer 5

$7 an hour

Answer 6

you should charge a "first off fee" of $10 per child for actually taking your time out to babysitt them and then after that you charge by the hour... say you charge $6/hour... and you babysitt about 4 hours.. you have $24 plus $10 for the child and if there two or three children, thats an extra 20 or 30!!! so yeah you'll be doin pretty good wih that!!!  hope this helps :)
