MissEmmyBoo answered Saturday October 16 2004, 4:51 pm: Well definitely put your name, number, and address on it. And maybe you can scan the cards and put them on there too. Don't make it really crazy or atything 'cause you want parents to think you're mature. And put the price of which you charge per hour on their too.

babiigurl076 answered Saturday October 16 2004, 4:31 pm: Put exactly what you just told me..& maybe put in on bright colored cardstock or w/e you're using so it stands out more. Parents who are looking for babysitters feel much more confident having a sitter who is certified in CPR& First Aid& that type of thing..it makes them feel safer. Goodluck!

FernGully answered Saturday October 16 2004, 4:22 pm: I wouldn't recommend putting your phone number and personal information on a flyer really. People are freaks. It might be an okay idea if you made up the flyers and had your parents bring them with them to work, and they could post it at work perhaps.
I just wouldn't recommend posting the flyers out in random places in the city.
As for whats on it:
You've told us some great things in your question. Definitely the CPR/First Aid training.
You might want to put something to the effect of, kind and responsible student, great with children. First Aid and CPR certified Training.
(you can always add the diapers thing at the end like, I even do diapers!)
