Hey ladies! What is the going rate for a babysitter for 2 kids? 3 kids (baby #3 is due any day now)? Also, if someone has a housekeeper, how do they charge? (How much an hour, room or task?)

Thanks!

So What Happened?

Thanks ladies. Now I know the going rate is $7 for one kid and generally add a dollar for each kid.

I pay my babysitter $7 hr for my one son. WE are expecting baby #2 in march and told her that we really couldn't afford to up it to $8 because we had to take pay cuts at work. She was totally fine with that.
not sure on the housekeeper thing.

cleaning service cost us 67.50 per cleaning for a 1200 square foot home that is pretty well organized and not a hard clean for them.
