i would probably offer around 5 to 10 dollars...it also depends on who u are babysitting

The above answer seems to have been submitted by a child/teen. Babysitting, like any variable time job should require being paid on an hourly basis or on a lump sum basis that accounts for time, travel, etc.

I don't have stats, but a babysitter should get paid around $10/hour at a minimum. This would be for basic "stay at my house while my kid sleeps" services. An active sitter that runs errands, entertains, cares for well being of child should expect more as this is a skilled, specialized service.

5 bucks is well below minimum wage, and is simply ridiculous. No ones time is worth that little, especially when they are responsible for a family's child and home.

The hourly rate for babysitting varies widely. I came across one woman who wanted to pay $5.00 an hour for someone who would not only watch her kids but entertain them. I've also known babysitters who've taken care of several kids for $12-15 per hour. One resource you could check that offers upscale, background screened babysitters is http://www.elitefamilycare.com
Hi,

I saw your post and wanted to show you this tool. It's the Care.com babysitter calculator. It basically averages the pay of all the sitters in your area (by zip code) based on the number of kids.

http://www.care.com/child-care-babysitter-pay-calculator-p1140.html

It may be a good starting point to start negotiations!

Good luck!
I am pretty sure that the average babysitting rate in Ohio is 8 dollars.

depends how wealthy you are. my friend babysits and one day she babysat these kids who's parents have extreme money and she got 60$ an hour plus a pair of 16 carrot gold earrings. then the next week she sat kids who's parents were average and she got 5$ an hour. Another only paid 1 dollar cause they were extremely poor. so it depends how much money you have,how good a job they did, and how rich you are!

How much a person will be paid an hour to babysit will depend upon who they are babysitting for. If you are babysitting for one child, a good price would be $10 an hour.
