How much to pay a babysitter?

[HMF'er]

I haven't hired a babysitter before. I have a neighbor teenager (15) coming tonight to hang out at my house for a few hours while the baby sleeps. All she has to do is watch tv. How much should I pay her?

I would pay anywhere from $ 8.00 to $ 10.00 per hour.

i just paid one for 5 hours 2 months ago, 50 bucks, and she was stoked...

No need to be cheap. If you want her more than once, show her you care about her taking her job seriously. After all, she is taking care of a precious thing, and watching over your home.
I say a $25.
