Anyone know what it is for 15/16 yr olds?

£3 an hour? That depends on whether they're just sitting watching Sky with your polite and well-behaved child or having to really earn their money! Or you could ask them how much they charge.

Thanks for that. Our kids will be in bed and never (though never say never!) get up when the babysitter arrives...sky tv and food all there, but obviously we don't want to offend and offer too little/overwhelm and offer over the odds! Our babysitter is so lovely I don't think they'd like to say how much they want!

we have 4 kids, the baby is always in bed, the others not always, but they have bedtimes and they do stick to them, we lay on biscuits and drinks, and they have free use of the sky, adsl and phone, and we pay £3 as I said earlier.
