i would say, depending on the age, about $8 hr.for someone between 14-16and around $10 hr.for someone older. any more than that is a bit much since you figure all they're doing is just keeping an eye on the kids to make sure they don't kill themselves. that seems typical and if you figure in how much is costs to send a child to daycare, the daycare really only costs about $8-9 an hour.
