[quote=Anonymous]I’m a mom of 3 who would love to make a little cash by babysitting. Changes in employment between DH and me have led me to this decision (and kids are expensive!). I live in a neighborhood with tons of families always looking for a sitter. I have shown interest and availability but families seem to be choosing local teens/ nanny. My rate is $18/hr for up to two kids and $20 for three or more which seems low/average. I have offered to help people looking for pre-school help/driving, late nights and all in between. I haven’t shared I need the money publicly as I don’t want pity jobs, but what’s the deal? I am [b]not[/b] bringing my own kids so that’s not the issue. Do people just prefer teens to help them out?
