What’s the going rate for a college grad babysitter with 8+ years of experience in Arlington, VA? Places to look for jobs? I’m looking to start babysitting again for some extra cash. Thanks!

relocate to Dallas. I will even throw in your own en-suite in my home and you can be a live-in.

8 years consulting experience or babysitting experience? I value one over another when it comes to my kids. They are adept at iPhones, but their laptop/excel skills could really use work. We pay post-college sitters $17–$20 an hour in the Boston area to watch our two children (4, 2).

My GF is a teacher here in Arlington and does babysitting on the side. I'd say the majority of her families pay 18-20 an hour. Some in the 25 range if multiple tough kids.

Thanks!!

Yeah we pay about the same in Chicago. Check out care.com or sitter City and see what others are charging.

You’re in Arlington?? How far south on 95 are you willing to drive. Message me. I need a babysitter. 3 girls between 3-7. Very familiar with consultant jargon and very similar to most of my unreasonable clients.

Haha I'd guess they're more reasonable than many, and sure! I'll send you a message.

A friend of mine was broken up with right as I was getting in a relationship. She’s very down so when we hang out, I typically don’t bring him up/share details the way I normally would. She’s only met him at 3 group events over 2 months & she’s been very accusatory of him if we show up late for any reason. It feels like she’s projecting all of her negative feelings onto him. I don’t want to walk away from a friendship, but it seems like she just wants me to be single again. Any advice?
