Everyone wants a babysitter for those hours so you must be very competitive to keep her.
$20/hour is NOT competitive!
It definitely is in my area for a high school student.
+1. We pay $20 too with guaranteed hours.

as a high school I would have my her rather babysat then work in fast food. Our neighbors daughter works at chick fil a, she find out each weeks schedule the Saturday before. It sucks.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:After school implies after school. So I would think not bathed and in bed. That was a weird question PP. OP I would say $12-$15 for a non driving HS sitter.
minimum wage in DC is $15.20/hr. I would not pay a penny less than this.
The sitter can decide she'd rather get a job at Chick Fil A where she'd have some fun co-workers her own age.

Thanks for being an ass, PP.
after school sitter could also easily be a date night sitter. We don't know the ages of the child(ren)

How many kids?
What responsibilities will she have?
Will the kids be asleep? Fed? Bathed?

Try posting in the tween/teen section or childcare other than daycare/preschool. Both are on the parent side of the forum.
