Answer 1

Ask if you can babysit one day under their supervision and if they like your work...Well done you got the job....if not ask why and improve and then ask again if still not just go find another family!Did I help?

Answer 2

Do small favors for the kids. Lets say one of your cousins wants a glass of milk. Be the first to get up to get it. And maybe U can teach them a route to get out of a house in a fire or something in front of your aunt and uncle. Just show how responsible U are.

Answer 3

don't babysit. petsit for other people. I pet sit for 8 dollars a day, but then again, I babysit too. I get paid like 20 bucks for a few hours with the baby, and if im babysitting her sister too, I might get like 30. Try babysitting for someone else. Perhaps a neighbor, or a good friend of the familoy. And just start out small. You'll get better along the way. Also, if you're dead set on babysitting for your aunts kids, then just be really good with them when they're asaround. Play with them, hang out with them, watch out for them. Your aunt and uncle will hopefully begin to let you babysit :) Good luck!

Answer 4

Since the children are theirs, its really up to them. If they feel your not responsible, than that's good enough reason...and its heimlich maneuver, severe weather, and responsible.  And if someone breaks in, I wouldn't trust you to keep my own children safe.  

Answer 5

Ask them to let you watch the children for an hour or two while they are shopping so they can see how well you do.

Ask them to let you watch the children while they are busy cleaning or doing some other task that they need to focus their full attention on, so they can see how you interact with the children.

This may let them see tht you are responsible enough to babysit when they need a sitter.

Do not charge less than your sister though. Equal work for equal pay.

Answer 6

learn how to spell and ask the Q again

Answer 7

Wait till your older.

They mgiht just not feel comfortable with it and they are their child. theres nothing you can do about it.

Answer 8

How old are you? Depending on your age I would try to show your Aunt and Uncle that you are responsible enough to do it. Things like maybe helping them with their kids while they are around.
