Never put flyers inside of people's mailboxes because it is illegal. I would advise putting them in their newspaper holders instead.
Also, I wouldn't advise posting flyers or handing them out to strangers, because some strange weirdo that doesn't have any kids could call you and you could be in serious trouble.
I pass them out to people that you know, like friends, neighbors, relatives, your parents' co-workers, .etc.
The best and most-trusted form of advertisement is word-of-mouth. But, hear this, customers are 3 times more likely to tell other people about a bad service than a good service. So make sure that you offer a great babysitting service and try not to make a customer mad, because it will come back to haunt you the day that you have no customers because they told everyone that you were a bad babysitter...
I'd also buy some business card magnets at an office store or at Wal-Mart and make some business cards to put on the magnets to hand them out to people that you know. This way, parents will always no who to call when your business card is a magnet on their fridge...

if you really want to advertise your best bet is to go to the local newspaper and have them put in an add for you. it doesnt usually cost anything but some papers do charge you for advertising but the cost isnt that much. ]
You could try putting up flyers places where parents shop, like grocery stores, or really anywhere in town that has a bulletin board. You can ask your parents if they know anyone at work who has younger kids, or ask your friends parents if they know anyone who needs a babysitter. ]
Well try and get your parents take them to work and hand them out putting them around where they work. Im sure that if your parents did that some people wouild call becuase they know you parent and they would think that you resposible and that aldeast they know you in some form. Also try the newspaper in like the classified section[i think thats what its called]. good luck and hope i helped<33 ]
How much are you charging? you could be overcharging... There was this AD on a pole and it said mowing lawns for 20$ for 5 minutes and that is wayyyy to much. ]
you can try to see if any of your parents friends need babysitters or try putting an add in the newpaper. put flyers out on the telephone poles hopeyou find something that will work for you good luck! ]
