Pay Rate?

Every single babysitter gets paid differently. You might be wondering what's the "fair" price for you to charge. You should charge more depending on:

  • How much experience you have
  • Your age
  • How far away you live from the client
  • Number of kids you're watching
The average rate is $4-6 per hour (for teen babysitters)

Some parents might already have a pay rate set already, and that's fine, as long as you feel they aren't taking advantage of you. Also, some parents might start low, like $4 an hour, and get all the way up to $10 an hour!

If you're not getting any clients, consider maybe lowering your pay rate. Start low to "get" the parents, and gradually charge more.
