I pay $5 an hour.

Answer 4

Honestly it depends on the hour of the day.  If my sitter was 13 and just watching my kids while they slept in the evening then no more than $4.50 an hr.  If he/she has to play w/ them then about $5.50.

Answer 5

I would charge 6-8 depeding on how many children and their ages
