Babysitter rates transparency across different regions

Parents cannot easily compare what babysitters should charge in their area, leading to underpaying good sitters or overpaying inexperienced ones. Sittercity shows some rates but doesn't break down by experience level, location, or number of children, making negotiation difficult.
