Babysitter question

How much do you pay a babysitter per hour?  I feel so silly asking this, but I'm a FTM and didn't really babysit when I was a teenager.  TIA

    If we were to have a sitter, it would be $10 an hour for DD. 

    That being said I would have no clue how much to pay someone here...our fitness club charges us ?4 an hour. I am not sure what is the going rate in the UK.

    I agree with the $10-12 an hour. $12 if the person has more experience.

    I'm not super experienced in the area or anything, but from what I've heard it's pretty dependent on the area you live in.

    Depends on your area we do $5/hr for a younger kid (like 13 yr old) if they are doing like a mothers helper thing where I am home while they help with the kids or $8/hr for a high school student, $10/hr for college-- we also vary the rate depending on the driving situation. If I am driving to pick them up and drop them off after I pay a little less- if they are using their own gas to get here and back home then I pay a little more. HTH!
