What to Pay a Babysitter

Video Transcript

"Hi! My name is Aisha Puri and on behalf of Expert Village, this is using a babysitter. When determining the salary for your babysitter, you should consider several things; experience, expertise and the resources that your babysitter plans to use. For example, if your babysitter brings in supplies or uses their car, they should be reimbursed. Also depending on their experience, they can give your child a better advantage at learning abilities and also the expertise level can also decide if you want to pay your babysitter various things. You can also give your babysitter a probationary moment where you pay them a certain amount and then after a certain amount of time passes, you can increase what they make. And as you decide to keep your babysitter on board permanently, you can discuss future salary upgrades. Also, when your babysitter uses their own money, it is very wise that you encourage them to save their receipts so that you can reimburse them what they used for your child. Thank you. My name is Aisha and thank you for watching. "
