babysitter rates-2 kids
I know this has been brought up before, but what is the going rate for babysitters? The last time someone outside of the family babysat for us, it was just for one kid.
One of the teachers at the kids daycare is able to do it for us, yay!! Here are the details: we'll be at a wedding, so it's going to be most of the day that she'll be at the house with them (probably from around 2pm-11pm or so). She'll have both kids and have to give them dinner and put them to bed around 8pm.

Re: babysitter rates-2 kids
I did, but no direct answer was given!

We had a non family babysitter a total of once. It was a HS girl who worked at the daycare after school. She said her rate for 2 kids was $9.00. We ended up paying her a little more because:
1. It was worth more to us
2. We wanted her to come back next time we needed her
We pay $10/hr, but round up to the next $10 denomination since we LOVE / ADORE / WORSHIP our babysitter and want her to come back.
ETA: Maybe we should pay her more, then?! lol
My three sons!
Seriously... I mean in comparison 9 hours of a sitter at $10 an hour is close to half of what we pay for a week of daycare! Sorry, can't come to your wedding. Too expensive!
