Ok, My son turns 14 tomorrow and the mum of one of my mindees who I have looked after since I first started out and he was just 4mths old keeps asking when my N will be old enough to babysit - now he is she can't wait to have him -he is totally lovely with the children and C totally loves him now what I need to know is a fare rate of pay for a child of 14 to earn for babysitting - I haven't needed a sitter for years and the last lot I had were all quite old so I have no bench mark anymore - what do some of you pay or what have some of your own teenagers been paid recently for babysitting???
The mum has asked me to find out - I don't want to say too much so she will continue to ask him and I don't want to say too little so he will value his little job!!! Also what is the current trend for getting teenagers home from babysitting jobs??? They live about 15 mins walk from us!!! & its about £3.00 in a taxi before midnight.
