Babysitter advice needed!

Can anyone help!!?

We have only really ever had family babysit my son (he's 5yrs old now), and of course they do it for free!! But now, for various reasons, I can't ask family, so was thinking about asking a neighbours son (he's 18yrs old) to babysit for us. He has got a child care qualification (Cache certificate I think) and has experience of working with children, as well as having a 4 year old sister. He's always pleasant and seems trustworthy.

Its not that we go anywhere on a regular basis, just for the odd time I would be nice to have someone handy to ask.

So, if we ask him...

- Are there any rules, regs, laws, etc. regarding letting him babysit?
- How much do you think we should pay him?
- What does everyone else pay?

Thanks
