Does your tween/teen babysit?
| Fri, 09-22-2006 - 11:42pm |
DD started babysitting for one neighbour about two months before her 12th birthday. I was alright with it b/c i was home and they lived right beside us. Now she is turning 13 in Nov and she is starting to babysit quite a bit for different people. She made $40.00 babysitting this week and she will make another babysitting next week.
So if your kids babysit how much do they charge?
DD charges $5.00 per hour.

We have 2 that babysit - our oldest (Lon) has a standing "job" on Friday nights and they agreed on an every week price before he started (they have 5 kids).
I will have my daughter babysit her younger brother for an hour at a time. She has also babysat with a friend.
Before she really starts babysitting, I would have her take a course through the Red Cross.
How much will she charge? It's hard to say. I know I have to pay $10.00 per hour for a babysitter.

"Where do live that it costs so much? "
Northern Massachusetts. Even at that price, it can be a pain to get a sitter. I ususally have to make 3-4 phone calls before I can get someone. Needless to say, I only hire a sitter when I have to.

Kayleigh is 11 and does not babysit, other than watching 7 year old DS sometimes for less than 1/2
