What should I say on my poster advertising babysitting etc?
I need some extra cash as I don't get any pocket money, so I was thinking of babysitting. But when I say babysitting, I will literally look after anything, like elderly people, pets, babies etc. Also, what age do I have to be to babysit in the UK? I'm 13. But anyway, there's a corner shop, a Chinese and small hairdressers about a 5 minute walk away from my house, and I was going to put up a poster advertising my whole babysitting thing...but I don't know what to write on it! So what should I write or say?

Nobody is going to employ a 13 year old child they don't know. The recommended minimum age in the UK is 16, for a good reason. You are far too young to look after babies and elderly people - what would you do if they stopped breathing or choked? Got a first aid certificate...?

Don't advertize as a babysitter. Try advrtizing that you are willing to work as an assistant or a helper to a professional babysitter in your area.

You can't look after strangers children or vulnerable adults
1. you need a CRB and relevant qualifications for that 2. you also need a first aid certificate Besides you are far too young at 13 as you don't have a national insurance number yet By all means ask family and close friends but you can't look after children you don't know |
