Im almost 14, would anyone hire me for babysitting? -

i live in australia and i turn 14 in 2 months. Would anyone hire for baby sitting? if so where should i advertise. Also im quite short and look like maybe a 12 year old so that doesnt help.

In addition to the other suggestions listed here you could also volunteer in a church s nursery during service or in a hospital nursery that has a rocking baby program. This will give you more experience as well as contact with the parents and professionals so you can establish a repoire and be able to use them as references with their permission. Also, check with your city or local hospital to see if they offer classes for child care training. And knowing infant/child CPR is definitely important. Good luck and have fun.

If im hnest no, i wouldnt anyway your only just old enough to look after your self properly and you shouldn t have the responsibility of a baby human being at a young age. Imagine if something happened wo the baby :/But, id suggest maybe you and you mum or dad/sister babysit for a family member or anyone first just so you get some experience. You may not even like the responsibility.Once you get some experience and know exactly what to do, people will trust you with their child more. this sounds kind of harsh but it is a big thing for parents to leave thier child for a few hours and they will want to know what type of person you are before they leave you in charge :)Also once yyou have experience you can put that on a poster :) aswel as a little bit about yourself, why you want to do babysitting etcYou can put a poster anywhere from shop windows, comunity centre(prob the best place due to all of the baby classes that happen there) erm, anywhere just ask around :)good luck with it all

build a good relationship with someone before you babysit

croaky ask your local neighbor hood mate

No. Too young. Do you know CPR?
