Babysitting rate 2 kids vs 3 kids

How much more do you think you should pay a sitter for 3 kids vs 2 kids.


Right now I pay my babysitter $14/hr to watch my twins one day a week (they are 18 mo)

Thinking ahead to when this Chat Icon is born...how much more do I pay her??
She will have twins that will be 2.5 and a 6 month old baby

ETA another question:

Those of you who have babysitters and then when on maternity leave what did you do? I would love for her to come back when I go back to work but I can't afford to pay her while Im out of work. (Ill be out for 3 months and then the summer 3 months but she is always off in the summer)

I think it would go up to about $18 an hour, that is a much harder job.

I pay for my 3 yr old twins and 1 yr old $20. I paid $15 for the twins and I gave her an additional 5 when my son was born.
