Answer 2

I'm 13 but turning 14 in 2 months and I babysit and i love it! I'm sure you would do fine but probably start with families with a max of 3 kids and maybe no infants.Btw hospitals usually offer babysitting courses!  Good Luck!

Answer 3

Yeah. But flyers in your community to let people know

Answer 4

yea.... to me you sound good enough to babysit

when  i have kids imma let you babysit mine :-) lol

Answer 5

you seem pretty responsible.just take a class and youll be set.im 14 and help my mom with her daycare some days.its hard work!but thats because there are a lot of kids.ive been watching my brother since i was 5 .when i was 12 i watched an 8 year old,a seven year old and a three year old all weekend.that was too much!maybe an afternoon with just a couple kids would be a good start.good luck with your jobs!

Answer 6

yesyou are able to babysit for shorter periods of time (4 hour max.) i would take a class before you begin, and since you are 12 i would recomend babysitting ages 3-9 so they listen.

:) hope this helps

Answer 7

I would love to have someone like you to help me so I could get some work done. Offer to be mother' s helper. Obviously you are trying to be a good sitter. Take the class and let your neighbors know you are available.

Answer 8

See if any of the people that your parents work with have kids? Maybe you could babysit one of them? Or if you know anyone who has young kids and just had a baby I bet they could use you as an extra set of hands for the day. Your best bet (at 12) is through someone that you or your family knows, a complete stanger would probally be more wary of your responisbility. I think you will be able to do it as long as you are a) responsible and b) patient. Oh, and dont be taken advantage of!
