$25 an hour

We pay our sitter $15 an hour but always round up. So if she’s here for 2 hours 15 mins we pay for 3. We pretty lunch guarantee 3 hours of pay even if we use her less. She just turned 18. We have one kid, just turned 11.

We pay $25 but a women recently advertised on our neighborhood facebook page that her rate was $35/hr. I was surprised she had 20 comments asking for her information. She was mid 30s and had teaching experience so people were willing to pay.

I pay $15 for three kids and one large dogs and have plenty of teens agree to return. So it seems right unless there is driving involved.

Also depends upon the babysitter's duties. Is the babysitter expected to prepare meals & clean-up after all four ? Dog walks ?

I pay $25/hr for our preschool teacher to babysit.

Seems low.

Is the babysitter familiar with the two large dogs ?

I pay $15 an hour for a teen to watch one kid. If this is an adult, $25

I pay $25 for one of our daycare teachers to babysit.

HAAAAA yeah if you are hiring a 13 or 14 year old.

I pay adult babysitters for two kids 1 and 3 no dogs $30/hour which is definitely on the high side but $15 seems really low to me.

Mine gets $20/hr for 2 kids. Bethesda.

Depends where you live. That would be low in the DC area unless it was a teenager. Even that’s kind of low for 2 kids.

My 15 year old gets $15 per hour for twin four year olds.
