[ ] Want to answer more questions in the category? Maybe give some free advice about: ?
for starters ask your parents friends if they need any kids to babysit or even just people in the neighborhood. then you can ask them to tell people about you.. if that doesn't work try hangin signs around town! <3 ]
Well for starters, you should learn what to do in case of an emergency. Make sure you know how to give CPR and know what to do in case of a fire, or even a scraped knee. Assuming you live with your parents... try babysitting a little sibling. If you don't have younger siblings, try friends of the family. If all goes well, you could try printing out flyers and posting them up at your local stores. Babysitting is a big responisibility, just make sure you're prepared. I wish you luck with your business, please be careful. ]

First, try babysitting you parent's friends in the neighborhood.Then you can ask them to tell other people about you.If you have the money, you can put a small ad in you local newspaper.If not, you can go around your town handing out flyers and talking to people you see with children telling them about your business. ]
Advertise....!!!Put up flyers in stores and on streets, and just tell people about it!
Hope I helped and you get your business!

Put flyers around in like grocery stores or gas stations around the neighborhood-trix ]
You could start by getting a lot of friends to help you so you can watch more than just a few kids, then you can put posters up in your neighborhood. Once you get started, save 1/5 of your money to put an ad in the newspaper, which will do wonderous promoting. Hope i helped a little

Ask around your neighborhood too see if anybody needs a babysitter. Get your parents to mention it to people at work. Make fliers and hand them out to people. Just keep putting yourself out there. If you get a job and do really well, they'll help spread the word too. You'll have lots of jobs after a while. ]
Hand out fliers all over the place and make them neat and attractive ]
Lucky you! You are going out in the real world and making a business on your own!! What you can do is print up flyers for your family, neighbors, or friends who may need a babysitter!! So at family functions for example you could pass out these flyers and tell them about what you are trying to do!! Also you can post flyers outside in your neighborhood!! Be sure to get permission!! Good Luck!!!

you should take a babysitting course to get certified ( i took one from the Red Cross) to show parents you are really responsible. then you should put up flyers with your available hours, hourly rate, and phone number around where you live. you could also ask your parents to give some to co-workers. that should get you started! hope i helped- peace out ]
put up fliers sayin that your responsible and stuff. And get your mom to tell her friends that you baby sit. ]
well when i started to babysitt i passed out flyers to the neighborhood, you should try it! it worked for me!!!good luck!!!
please rate me!!! ]
first talk to neighbors and people you know and ask them if they or someone they noe wants/needs a babysitter
then charge at a minimum price
after a wile the kids will come to noe you and enjoy you and wen theyre parents see the good job your doing theyll most likely recommend you to other ppl as well ]
To start your own babysitting business you can put flyers up around your neighborhood and around your town.. On the flyers you should include how to get ahold of you, what you are doing, (not necessary but if you want to you can put how much you are charging.) Another good thing you can do is put an ad in the newspaper it costs money to do it, but it pays off in the end when people pay you to watch their kids. Good Luck.. hope i helped

Many ways. You could make little signs and post them around public places. ( make sure you put information such as "experienced" and things like that too make the parents feel comfortable enough to call you.
Also, you could ask your family ( aunts and uncles ) If anybody they know has younger kids, and they might need babysitters.

well it depends on how old you are .. because if you just mean like a little job like mowing the grass ( example ) then i would say you can start by setting up hours and then passing out flyers to let ppl know you are babysitting ... if i helped you tell me thanz .. ashley ]
