Are they all from one family? I'll tell you my rates:
Hourly: 5 dollars per child with 20 percent off each additional child in the same family so two kids from one family is 8 dollars an hour
Weekly: 125 a week. This means 5 full time days like 7 - 5
Part tiime: 25 dollars a day, but they have to commit to a minimum of 3 days a week.
They pay me the Fri before the week of care so that I can go buy groceries for the following week. If their child is sick, no refunds. If mine is or me than, yeah refunded.
This is the normal rate for my area. I took my fees off of what everyone else charges. I have CPR, first aid, and food handlers training as well as monthly training. I feed the kids and provide crafts.
If you are not a liscenced provider then it completely up to you and what it's worth to you. You are going to have your hands full :) 6 kids is the maximum that I am allowed to watch including my own children. I would use this as a base for your charge, but take into effect your region and the details such as who's providing the food?
Best of Luck!

If they are all from the same family and this is an evening out for the parents, I think I would be content to just accept whatever they give rather than giving them a specific hourly wage. If you are going to babysitting daily for these kids the going rate is a weekly one and you need to check with area babysitting agencies and childcare facilities to see what the going rate is and go from there. Usually when you are not licensed to babysit the rate is much lower than if you were licensed, so keep that in mind. When I was young I used to babysit for a family with 8 kids and they only paid me enough to make it $1.50 an hour. Another family I babysat for with 2 kids paid me $20 every time I babysat. It will all depend on how much the family has to spare when they pay you too. Prayers =)

$5 bucks for each child for an hour, times 6 would be $30 bucks and hour. That depends are they rich or wealthy if not you could cut back to maybe half to $15. Negotiate with them and see what they have to say.

i would say for the older ones 5 bucks and for the little one cut it in half.. 2.50.. thats what i do but since like the older ones can kinda care for them sleves i would cut them in half to... 2.50 (the 5 and 6 year old) so bout 11 bucks an hour...and it may seem like a little... but
you figure they go to sleep to and stuff you arent watching them really them and 66 bucks for a 6 hour day is alot! good luck

usually it is $5 an hour for the first two and 2.50 an hr per child there after so for 6 hours and six kids you should get.$120.00 at least that what I would pay you !

I would charge around 250 a week so divided by 6. You would be getting about 41.50 per child a week
