Babysitters are often adolescents who seek to earn some extra money by looking after children in the families' homes when needed. They usually work on a pocket money basis. Nannies also work at families' homes, but are employed by the family and also help out around the house. Childminders or daycare families are generally self-employed and look after multiple children from different families in their homes.

Babysitters, nannies, and childminders set their own hourly wages on Babysitting24. These are determined by their qualifications and experience. The person's hourly wage can be found in the respective profile. If you like to have a general estimate, you can use the search tool on Babysitting24 to compare the hourly wages in your area. However, there are some aspects that should be considered when comparing hourly wages. These include, for example, their age and the income level.
