$6 for Mother's Helper
$8-10 for Babysitting

I've got a 10 & 13 year old. I'm paying a college kid $10 to drive to camp. When I had a full-time nanny/manny I payed more (and did the whole tax drama). But one-offs and full time are different, and so is all year vs just some summer cash.
$10 for college kid who drives?! That's a steal. How did you find her?

If you'll be home $6-7 an hour. If you won't, start at $8 an hour and go up to $10 over the course of the year.
The difference between mother's helper and babysitter is simply whether or not you're home.
This is accurate.
When the nanny forum used to over here, these kinds of threads were flooded with answers of $15-20 for a high school student, $20+ for a college student and $25/hour plus benefits for a professional nanny type answers.
That is why I hate Jeff deleting these threads posed to other parents. The parents give accurate answers for mothers helpers/teen sitters and the nannies give inflated answers.
I've seen the paychecks for some of those "inflated" rates. Some parents can and do pay nanny professionals $25/hr and more. But why would they tell you?
