I never enjoyed babysitting by people that I didn’t know their kids( and especially by total strangers). Therefore, I only did it if there was a real emergency. At those times, I didn’t say a price and let them give what they felt was right. As far as I can remember, I don’t think anyone took advantage-they all gave about 7-10 an hour. Some people(neighbors, aunts…) didn’t pay every time I came for a 1/2 hour- instead they bought me nice gifts for special occasions.(I didn’t need the money because my parents gave me what I needed/wanted and my parents didn’t let me use my own money.)
