I charge £6.50 and all my regulars have two kids.

I think she's asking too much personally!

My daughter who is nearly 21 charges £5 per hour whether for 1, 2 or 3 kids.

I think at 15 she is charging far too much.

DD wants to babysit, she's nearly 16 and I said £5 would be a good amount for her age.

Dd is 16 and charges between £4 and £5 per hour depending on the family.

She gets a lift back or a taxi :D

I think that is too much, I charge £7 p/h. I would pay a teenager less and less if they don't have first aid.
