I need a job
I am 12 and I NEED A JOB! Where does someone this young get a job? How do you get babysitting customers? I dont want to babysit my friend's kids because it feels awkward getting paid by someone you know. HELP

Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Job Searches?
I'm 16 and I can't even get a job because this economy sucks .. haha, so, not to discourage you or anything, but it's going to be really hard to get a job right now .. but you seem pretty responsible, so I guess you could try getting a job babysitting .. make a website online and e-mail it to your friends and family, asking them to e-mail it to people they know that have young kids in need of babysitting :] because, most people don't usually look at flyers, yuh know ? You could also ask people from different neighborhood if they need any yard work done .. like watering flowers or anything for a little cash. you could also just stick to chores in your own home and getting your parents to reward you in some way .. or yuh know, there's always the "lemonade stand" approach, which on hot summer days, actually brings in a lot of cash. no joke. :]
good luck and have fun ! hope i helped, xxo.

Honey you need to be 13 to be on advicenators.
but to answer your question:
Im not so sure of a job for 12 year olds, but for babysitting make a flyer on microsoft word and print out a bunch. Leave them in your neighbor's mailboxes and have your mom spread the word to friends and family. also you can put an add in the paper too.
Good luck!

12 year old kids can't get jobs.
I also don't agree with a 12 year old babysitting. Sometimes parents want teens to babysit their 12 year olds, not a 12 year old babysitting their own 12 year old. That'd be weird. You also need to know a lot of things especially cause babysitting jobs are mostly dealing with young children. I don't think you should babysit.
I think you should just chill out. You don't need a job right now. You're 12. Enjoy your childhood.

Send out/pass out flyers to people in your neighborhood or in surrounding neighborhoods telling about yourself and how you would love to get a job. Trust me people are always looking for people to watch their kids when they get in a jam and hopefully after you babysit for people one time they will continue to have you babysit more and reccommend you to their friends!
good luck!
