[quote=Forest123]My daughter is planning to babysit for neighbors and friends this summer and is having a hard time figuring out a reasonable rate. A few details: - She is 16 and going into her junior year. - She has a lot of babysitting experience. - She does not drive. - Normally she charges $8-10 an hour (she probably undercharges for our neighborhood - Bethesda - but feels awkward about increasing her rates with people she has worked for before). How much do you recommend she charge for: - Full day / week with 1-3 kids - She and a friend are talking about coming together and caring for a larger group (e.g 4-6 kids) at one family's home. What should she charge for that? Per child / per family? Any other suggestions re: pricing structure? Any other ideas of what you would like from a summer sitter? [/quote]
