Answer 1

Wow, that's nanny/day care status, not just babysitting. I'd charge $12/hr but it depends on your experience and where you live. I live in Northern California, things are expensive here.

Answer 2

ask for a weekly rate. maybe around $325 for the week.  you are a decent age to ask for around that much.  maybe a little less if you don't have a lot of experience.

Answer 3

Absolutley 8 to 12 bucks an hour......

Answer 4

Hmm. Ask to be paid weekly, like $50 a week? that would only $10 a day :/ hmm $100 a week ($20 a day)? thats alot of money ;D

Answer 5

i watch a 3 year old girl and 6 year old boy..and i get $8 an hour.

since they are coming to your house...and i dont know where you live...maybe $8 an hour...or give a weekly pay such as $150 a week...
