How much babysitter per hour

The number of kids the sitter will be watching. The location where you live or where you will be babysitting.

Number of children If you are watching more than one child, you can expect to be paid more. If the babysitter is caring for more than one of your children at the same time then you might expect to pay more. Babysitters caring for young babies or young twins are likely to have more responsibilities and work to do so may charge higher rates.

Additional Responsibilities : If you expect your sitter to pick up the kids from school, help with homework, or perform household tasks like cooking dinner or cleaning, plan to pay more for these additional services. Sitters are in high demand at these times. Travel and Expenses : Of course, sitters in large cities like Manhattan or San Francisco are more expensive than those in smaller Midwestern cities.
