Settling Up with the Babysitter

So, you’ve finally had that much-needed night out, and now it’s time to pay your babysitter. Whether it was a wild night of fun or a quiet evening in, we all know that settling up can feel a bit awkward. You want to show appreciation but also stick to your budget. So, how do you handle it like a pro?

First things first, don’t underestimate the importance of a good babysitter. They’re not just watching your kids; they’re keeping the little tornadoes entertained and safe. A tip of 15-20% is pretty standard, but if they went above and beyond—like getting your kids to bed without a fuss—consider being a little more generous.

And let’s talk about payment. Cash is king, but if you’re short on bills, apps like Venmo or PayPal can make it easy to transfer funds. Just make sure to add a personal note, like “Thanks for surviving the chaos!” It adds a nice touch.
