You could get in touch with these guys, apparently their babysitters are very good and I've been recommended them by a couple of mums

I have a friend who currently works as a nanny but also does casual babysitting in Auckland.. I'm not sure what her babysitting rates are but if you're interested I can pass on her details :)
She's a qualified Nanny :) ------------- www.momentz.co.nz Momentz Photography |

We have two babysitters (aside from grandma). One asks for $30 for the night (say 7.30pm - 12am) and dinner, and the other charges $16 per hour.

I am a qualified nanny and through a nanny agency it is about $12+ but $10 an hour is pretty much the going rate.depending on how they are and their experience. |
