2 kids, mainly an every other Sat night deal, $12 an hour. She is a a college girl that use to work at my youngest daughter's school. $10-$12, pretty much seems to be the going rate.

Yep I live in Queens....I'm thinking its the going rate here because I interviewed 2 other people also and they charged the same price. We're moving to LI in about a month and I still plan on driving her into Queens 3 days a week rather than finding someone new who will charge me more than double.

Re: How much do you pay your babysitter?

Thanks Ladies, we are possibly hiring a sitter for a few days per week, $12 per hour, she will have the kids from 8am-4pm, 3 kids, and she will need to drive them around to activities, I guess that is pretty good, oh well, we have no other choiceChat Icon Plus, she is my parents' housekeeper's bestfriend, she is from Poland and is a 27yo blonde,bombshell (keep her away from my hubbyChat Icon ) My kids will LOVE her, they have a thing for beautiful ladies with accentsChat Icon
