Mom Blog:Babysitting Rate

As a mother of 3, I have had my fair share of babysitters over the years. I myself babysat for many families back in the day. But times have sure changed since I babysat in the 90's and children require more attention and are more of a handful these days. Mine included. lol

Therefore, my big question is....what is the going rate for a sitter these days? Is by the hour? Per kid? Age? I'm out of the loop. If I'm going out for the evening with bae and some friends, how much should I be paying the sitter? #momprobs
