We will be using a babysitter instead of a family member for the 1st time. How much do you pay your sitter per hour? We live in North Fort Worth, have a very well behaved 7 year old, and pretty easy 1 year old twins who will be in bed by 7:30pm. Thanks :)

What can I do next?

Depending on experience and number of children they're sitting for, the going rate is $10-15/hour

We pay our babysitter (a recent nursing grad) $10/hr. I've heard between 10-12 is the going rate.

Good luck!

Although I am employed full time and a mom, I do babysit for a few select families here in the Fort Worth area and I charge $10 per hour.

When my husband and I go out we usually pay $8 -$10 depending on the sitter we use.

If you haven't already found someone to babysit for you send me a private message and I may be able to help you out.
