Anyone know the going rate for babysitters?!

Recommended Posts

Usually when we need sitters my parents come over, thing is they live 35 miles away and don't drive so mid week is a bit tricky. Tonight we are going to look around the local high school with Harvey, got my friend's 15 year old girl coming round for a couple of hours to look after the younger too. She has only just started babysitting, I asked her mum who is a friend of mine if she has a rate and she said no, just give her whatever. We are totally clueless!! Anyone have any idea what a reasonable amount is?!

Hi

As she is 15 and likely not to have all the usual qualifications I would say £5 p/h,however as its 2 kids you may want to make it a little more than that, maybe £7p/h?

 

I know qualified(all NVQ's,CRB's,First aid etc) babysitters get paid on average £15p/h.
