you should charge $7.00 an hour. but if you are certified in first aid and life guarding, you should charge around $9.00. but to really impress your "clients" bring a "bag of fun" to your first babysitting job. it will impress the parents and show you are prepared. plus, you will have something to do with the kids!! have fun!

I would say it depends on the number of kids your watching and their ages. As well as how many hours you will be putting in watching them.
