Answer 1

I'm not a parent, but babysitting at 17 isn't a good idea. My parents never let me babysit at that age. They just wanted me to go to school and study and hang out with friends and be a teenager. babysitting experience is not good anyway. My grandmother is probably a better babysitter than you because she's experienced, raised four kids of her own and has more than 24 years experience to her back. I think that if you babysit, people will just allow you to babysit a toddler.

Answer 2

Depends on where in Ontario, how many kids and how "cheap" the family is.

I personally pay $10 for a one year old child, plus will either have something to eat for breakfast/lunch/dinner or give money to order in.

When my daughter is born, that will be upped to $15/hour.
