I'm honestly not sure I trust a 12 year old to do that. How well do you know the kid?
Ah. That does change the idea for me then. I'd pay them whatever fair babysitting rate is in your area, I'm not in Chicago so I won't opine.
$20/h
I agree with EY1 and KPMG1. Good call to check with their parents so you don’t shake up the pay scale they have in their own home for chores and jobs.
We pay the neighbor 15 year old $10/ hour for babysitting
Or you’re a sucker for paying above market rates 😆
I’d pay around min wage for that.
If I’m ever not sure about what to do I always pay them higher and round up. I’d rather overpay some, that way when multiple requests come in, I win.
Usually $15. In HS maybe $10
Our babysitter lives in Logan square and is an undergrad right now, and only charges us $17/hr to come to us in Oak Park (which I feel is great, given she's basically an adult and also is covering her own transportation). I'd be inclined to want to pay less for a neighborhood 12 year old though, and on the presumption(like you) I'm staying close, I'd still probably think 10-12/hr
