How much should I charge for babysitting or mothers helper?
Asked by Aileen M

Best Answer:
i usually get 5-7 dollars per hour, but it depends how many kids you are watching. just talk about it with the parents of the kids you are babysitting.
i'm a babysitter.

A:
I'd say $5-10 per hour, but it could go up to 15-20, depending on number of kids you watch, and also perhaps how hard they are to deal with. If I was your age, I wouldn't want to be responsible for any child younger than 4.
