    The standard for everyone I've every known is about 5 dollars an hour which is usually for 2 kids but considering the age I would expect 5 dollars an hour

    I've baby sat for many many people and that's just the average

    You can charge a bit more if the child requires diaper changes etc. but not much.

    I think $5/hour is reasonable.
