Children should not watch children. If you have someone watch your children they should be paid the going rate for the job. Having responsibility for a child's care and welfare is a bigger job than most children are able to do. There is more to child care or babysitting than most people are aware of. Anything can happen at any given time and a child (if chosen to do this job) should be able to make adult choices about any given situation that may occur. If you have a child babysit, this child should be paid the going rate that any adult would make.
Because you are just starting out, you need to have a lower babysitting rate than someone who is very experienced. However, I would not charge a flat rate. You should charge by the hour because it is your time and quality of care that you are being paid for. It would not be fair to receive twenty dollars for babysitting for one hour and then the same amount for five hours.
about 10$ is right but don't just take my word for it take others i have just heard about babysitting prices I've never babysit before

If you are asked to spend the night when babysitting, the average amount should be over $30.00. If you babysit normally, you should ask for over $5.00 ann hour. A good amount that is used often is, $8.00 an hour.

You should ask a nurse.
How should I know ask a deer!
Ask them what extra chores and things you can do to earn the money to pay for it. Look for babysitting, raking and other age appropriate jobs you can do to earn more money. Parents have no obligation to provide this for you, so your ask should be on the side of letting them know your wish and for advice in achieving it.

Just go down to a local babysitting place and ask for an application!

You should ask the people that are in control of the magazines.
You can call your local child welfare department and ask them. They should be able to tell you.
You should post flyers. If you have babysat for a family member ask them to recommend you to their friends!
