my friend and i have been watching these videos like all day, because we are starting a babysitting “job”
I sometimes babysit for that family but we live in a really small town and we like all know each other! It makes it less complicated cause I know a lot of the questions to ask already and know the employer pretty well, even worked for them before in other jobs.

That’s some good advice but how do I get a babysitting job?
What does it really mean by a odd babysitting jobs? I was just questioned about that by a client and due to the language barrier, I went on google to check about it, could not get the exact definition. Help pleas
how much should i charge per hour i’m 11 and starting to babysit and i was just wondering
Great information except for the money
What should be my main job then?
I’m kind of suspicious about a babysitting job some person asked me, because they were adults, and I’m currently almost 12, but they didn’t add add any period at the end of a sentence, and they even spelled ‘have’ as ‘hav’. I asked if they have been background checked, and they replied that they haven’t been yet, and they wrote: “Don’t worry you’re safe.” That kinda raises my suspicions…should I be worried? What do I do?

Who else is whatching this to learn how to be a parent if older sibling😅
My mom is making me watching this even tho I know how to do all of this but I’m only watching my siblings who never listen to me or do what I say or appreciate what I do for them. I buy them things clean for them make sure they have ate and everything and I don’t get paid at all and my mom has money to do so but she just didn’t instead my siblings like to tattle and make up lies to tell my mom and she believes them and when I try to tell her the truth she calls it back talking and my siblings are 11 and 13 year olds and I’m 14 so I don’t even know why I have to show them how to make them a bowl of oatmeal. I don’t understand it

@hassanm427

hey, so I'm pretty sure if your 9 it isn't ideal because waiting for you to be the Legal age to sit at home alone is also required. for instance here in Australia, you need to be 10 years old to sit at home alone and 13 to take of others at home alone so you need to pretty much be 13 to babysit. Check the legal requirements in your country.

Do you think i am to young to babysit? I am an 11 year old girl and i want to start getting into babysitting. i help at the nurses office at my school so i am super good with kids. I love babies and kids. I am also pretty mature for my age. I want to know how i will get people to let me babysit their kids. even if it is a family member. What age can i babysit? I know cpr,and i stay at home by myself a lot. I also know self defense basics. I can make sandwiches,smoothies, etc. I think i am mature and responsible enough to start babysitting somebody's kid. What do you think? any tips/advice?

If you are babysitting a child who has an allergy that could be life threatening, ask the employer if the child has an EpiPen (or similar), where it is located, and if the child knows how to use it.
