I'm not a young couple, I'm an old singly, but it's a great idea diamonds. Many people are always looking for babysitters, especially ones who are more understanding of the swing lifestyle and will stay that bit longer to allow you to have a 'sleep-over' at your friends lol lol lol

When I was 14/15 I used to get about £5 a night but when people started taking the piss and coming home at all hrs of the morning I started charging by the hr,they soon started coming home not long after closing time

I used to look after children during the school holidays too,was raking it in!

Did you know that registered childminders are now permitted to look after children in their own houses now as babysitters. They only need to carry out a risk assesment when they arrive on the premises and will be covered by insurance. Not sure what they would charge prob between £7-£10 per hour.

When I was a teenager I charged the locals for babysitting, was never a lot infact I dont think I ever got more than a tenner - was the early to mid 90's which was enough for me to say I had a job and make a few quid cos once the kids were asleep I cracked on with homework or snogging the boyfriend

I now babysit for true friends and NEVER expect a penny cos I know if I need a sitter for my kids I can ask again my true friends.

But nowadays I wont babysit unless I know the kid and all the health problems since I got caught out with a health problem I knew nothing about, luckily common sense (yes even I have some lol) prevailed and the kid was fine but only cos I noticed. Had when I was a teenager anything could have happened to that poor child
