Hi,
I am 13 years old and my name is Rey Egleston and I want something to do over the summer. What i want to do is babysit. I love kids and love to babysit them. I would only charge 5 to 10 dollars a day. It depends on the age.
Youngest i will do is 6 months old no younger please and oldest is 3 years old. I play baseball so the days might be restricted, but only occasionally. So, sorry for the inconvience.
How to babysit
How I did it: I got babysitting books (one was an AmericanGirl book!) and I took a Redcross Babysitting course at my local YMCA! You learn skills and tips, and they teach you CPR! At the end, you get a card for your wallet and a certificate! If you show your card to a parent that you may be babysitting for, not only will you feel more confident when babysitting, but you get mega bonus points with the parents! So there's the knowledge, the knowing that you HAVE the knowledge, AND the fact that you wanted to take the class shows responsibility! I actually got started babysitting, because my dad told his co-workers! Another thing I am going to do soon is make flyers and business cards, and put the flyers in everyone's mailboxes in my neighborhood, and give out the business cards to any adults I meet in the future, or friends of my parents!

Im 24 and have never babysat or even been alone with a kid that i can think of. Im also an only child.
Well my Mum had to work unexpectedly today so I have been looking after the baby today so I think a whole day makes this goal done.
My Mum’s friends didn’t go out in the end. I was quite gutted.
Anyway, I suggested to my Mum that she arrange for them to go out for a meal with her and Dad and then I would have another opportunity to babysit.
I am a 23 year old female and I have never baby sat for anyone. So, an opportunity has arisen and I think I will take up on the offer because I think it would make me feel like some sort of pulled together, responsible adult, plus I’m doing a favour for my Mum’s friends.
So, I’ll see how it goes.

Cheryl so glad that God is watching over me
I have about 6 families who seem quite satisfied, not to get cocky. We’ll see how this summer goes. I have a couple regulars, I hope they keep requesting days and evenings. The next 2 weeks are hectic. It’s an absolute delight to get to know my neighbors. Babysitting is the best job ever.

I sent out an ad to my neighborhood’s e-mail address. 7 people replied today! omg this is cool. wow. one woman called me immediately. I love when that happens. I’m kind of overwhelmed. Most people want a full-time babysitter, I didn’t realize I would be in such demand. I hope to figure out whether I’ll be hired for an office job or limp along with babysitting. Call me crazy but I’m about to do babysitting full time :) God wants me to do something that I love and uses my talent. I think I already know what decision I’ll make. I wish I could babysit all of these kids. I even have an interview tomorrow evening. so cool.
Hi I am Desi and I am here to ask you if you need a babysitter. I am good with pets and love kids. I can babysit all ages. I can babysit up to 3 or 4 children alone and my friend michele would be more than happy to help with up to 6 children.
