Sorry I dropped the ball on responding to this!  In answer to the question above asking if I meant $20 or $20/hour...  I meant a flat fee of $20 if you're ever out like for an evening of movies or dinner (or the Elton John concert, ya!!).  You'd be surprised how great it feels for a teen to get a 20 dollar bill.  :)  And now that I think of it, it does equate to roughly $5/hour.  If you're gone 2 hours or 4, I would round up to $20 just to make it worth the sitter's time.  If your sitter is 16 and older, I'd toss in another $5 the closer it gets to 4 hours.  We did the "only grandparents" too for a while, but eventually the kids grow up and aren't as much fun for Grams and Gramps (especially when there are 3 of them), or the kids become too active, or they stay up too late, etc., so there comes a need for paid sitters.
