How much should I earn babysitting?
I'm turning 15 soon (woo woo) and have been babysitting all summer (5 hours a day 3-4 times a week.) I haven't taken a babysitting class but I do know basic first aid.
The kids I have been babysitting this summer are 2 and 5, and sometimes a third who is 8. For babysitting them all I make about $8 an hour.
If I were to start babysitting for another family, should I be asking for more? How much? I live in the DC area (if that makes a difference.)
