How much do people pay babysitters in Santa Clara county/ bay area?



I am a teenager, living in Santa Clara county/bay area. I want to babysit around my apartment complex. Should I charge for each child or by hour. Please include ages. I know the bay area is very expensive but I want to charge a reasonable price. Thanks

questions you need to ask?
are there any mentally challenged children
how many children?
these questions will lead you to the amount
you need to charge for your services.
if their is a mentally challenged child your servises will lead to a lot more in pay, but you need to
know how to care for all types children before you go into
this field. then you will know how much to charge.

If you have a license i think you can charge (depending on how many hours: $6.50/hour and if they are in excess 10.00 per half an hour that they are late. ( You have to have safe toys and good books and good educational movies for kids. You have to teach the kids to be polite and have to teach them good manners and to have good decipline. You cannot have boyfriend in front of them and doing your thing with your boyfriend.)Say they have to pick up at 6PM - they pick up their kids at 6:30 - they have to pay 10.00 extra for being late. The reason is it is your free time and you are also tired already and because they are late - you can't get your rest and whatever other things that you should do for yourself. Under the table I heard that 10.00 per day. And there are so many other things that you have to consider. Baby sitting is not a simple job - remember you will be the companying adult for the babies so therefore you should be in your best behaviour all the time. And there should be an adult that will supervise you just in case something happen (like the baby fell on the staircase or in a high chair) that you can ask assistance for - you have to know what to do like what mommies will do if their kids get hurt. Ok??? Good Luck!
