Price of a Babysitter in Albany
| 1 Child (per hour) | Multiple Children (per hour) | With Tip (per hour) |
|---|---|---|
| $13.6 | $13.6 – $20.4 | $13.6 – $23.5 |
It costs about $13.6 per hour (for one child) to hire a babysitter in Albany, that’s about $0.17 more than the national average of $13.44 per hour. Additional children can cost up to 50% more per child that needs care but many sitters charge much less or nothing additional for two kids. A tip is not always necessary but always appreciated. 10 to 15 percent is common but again, not a requirement.
