  • When I was a babysitter I got $5/hour and that was in the early 90's.
  • I used to make $10/hr per kid. I think that was pretty generous though.
  • I make $6 if its just one kid or if it's a baby. But if it's like 3 or 4 kids at one time I lower it to $5 bucks.
  • My brother was making $10/hr watching these two little boys. Those people were very nice to him hahaha they boys were 4 and 7.
  • I babysit for two families and one is a 4 year old boy that is asleep when i babysit (parents go out at 10pm til 3am) and I babysit 3 kids ages 6,3, and 10 months and thats during the day and i make 10$ an hour for each family plus i get fed so its a good deal
  • Ten years ago when I babysat, there was one family I sat for almost weekly who tended to stay out til 1 or 2 and I got about $5 an hour before 10:00 and $10 and hour after that for their three kids. I could easily pull $50 just for one night. But they were pretty generous, I think partly because their kids really liked me and they felt their kids were much safer with me than with their backup sitters.
  • about $200, plus performance pay. but they're corporate babies.
  • I charge $4/hour for an 8 hour day during the summer. I make about $160 a week. If I babysit for 2 families I make about $360 a week. If I babysit less than 8 hours a day I charge $6/ hour.
  • I been reasearching this. WEll I am almost 19 years old and I am not Attending College til next year and I am looking for a new job (I worked at a bowling Center) but in the meantime I picked up Babysitting For two kids ones 19 months and ones 3 . They are both in diapers still and both sleep in a crib and the 14 months old still breast feeds. they parents are a firrefighter and a Trama Nurse and I get up at 4:30 in the morning to babysitt them for 12 hours a day. And Watch them anytime they call me. They pay $40 for a 12 hours days which is like $3 an hour and when they just call me in they usually give me only $7 for like 3 hours or more..Everyone tells me I need to ask for more but im shy and kinda a push over. I am just trying to support myself until I get another job What do you think?
