My best friend and I are thinking of starting a babysitting business, since we're both certified in CPR and First Aid, and have taken a bunch of babysitting courses, too.

We were wondering how we could go about this.

Like what should we charge, should we baby-sit together, or on our own, how should we advertise, .etc.

Thank You :)

Babysitting charges vary depending on where you live.However i think that an average pay is around 5$ an hour.I think that if there are 2 people babysitting though that you should make it an even number so around 6$.When i babysit i usually don't set a priceand i let the parents decide what i deserve!Also some babysitting jobs may be easier so you could get payed less!

In order to Advertise just make a little sign on your computer or by hand that has:
-Babysitting (somewhere in big font,be creative)
-name
-phone #
-several pictures
-any courses or workshops you have taken!

I wouldn't post it on the side of the road instead just give some to people you know or know have kids!(eg. at a siblings soccer game)

As for working together or apart it all depends on what you and your friend want to do!

Hope i helped
