Price of a Babysitter in Amherst
1 Child (per hour) | Multiple Children (per hour) | With Tip (per hour) |
---|---|---|
$18.3 | $18.3 – $27.4 | $18.3 – $31.5 |
It costs about $18.3 per hour (for one child) to hire a babysitter in Amherst, that’s about $4.84 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.
