I babysitting for one family don't charge them more. but I know their kids very well. we have a great time. I have never like NYE so to having a really nice time is means more to me.

I'd say double is fair. I charge £8 per hour normally. so that would be 16. but would probably just make is 15 per hour as it's a rounder number. but I don't babysit NYE so wouldn't know if that's normal!

I usually charge £10 per hour for a single family in central London. If there's children from another family there as well then it's £15 per hour. I drive myself there and back too.
