X0C0URT answered Monday July 11 2005, 6:03 pm: Tell all your friends that you are really interested in babysitting. Let them know that if they ever get a job offer that they can't do, (they already have something else planned) you would love to cover for them! If you do get a job this way thank your friend and the people you are babysitting for, and let them know that you won't let them down. If the kids like you, maybe they'll ask for you again. Just make sure you don't take over your friend's job!
