How does it sound?

It sounds like a good ad, but i hope you realize that your rates are WAY too low. I charge 10 an hour to babysit for one kid, and between 3-5 dollars per extra kid, depending on their ages. And i don't clean people's homes beyond straightening up the messes that the child and I make. I leave the house the way i found it. For example, i babysat for a 4 year old and a 2 year old (both boys) and got 15 dollars an hour.

Look at it this way, lets say you are hired to watch one kid for 4 hours. You will be paid 20 dollars to watch the kid AND clean a house. If you were hired to watch two kids, it would be 40 dollars for your time and cleaning services. Think about the situation you would be in. You would have a kid who needs to be entertained, fed and cared for and a god knows how messy house to clean, and at the end of the day you would walk away with twenty bucks. After four hours of labor.

I've made a flyer to advertise my babysitting services:

Need some time off?
Responsible 13 year-old girl looking to babysit in local * area.
-Dependable and mature
-Loves kids
-Have had three years of experience with younger children (ages 1-11 years)
-Educated and certified in first aid/CPR
-Will do basic housework on request
-Flexible hours and affordable rates
$3/hour for first child
$2/hour for second child
$1/child/hour after that

and then I have those little slips that you can tear off that say Jennifer, babysitter [phone number]
I have a little notepad ready for all necessary and emergency contact information for when I babysit, and am creating a "babysitter's kit" with basic first aid, some storybooks, a simple board game, crayons/coloring books, and other little toys.
Am I good to go? Is there anything I should do to prepare for a job? Is my pricing reasonable?
Thanks for your input!

Your flyer looks really good. Your price might be a little on the low side depending on your area - check with others who babysit to see what they charge.

Best of luck....

I pressed the button and saw my enemy explode into a million pieces. As satisfying as that was, I was also in terrifying danger. I dodged bullets and ran as quickly as I could to the nearest building. I looked around and could no longer see anyone. I could sense something was wrong as I entered what seemed like an abandoned school. I felt a tingling up my spine and constantly checked my peripherals. I was injured and decided to look for first-aid kits inside the building. I finally found one and ran outside. Unfortunately, the fight outside had greatly intensified, and I had no choice but to come back inside. I turned my head and felt the blood drain from my face as I stood face to face with a horrifying monster. There was no escaping it; it was game over.
Video games tend to get a bad reputation these days due to this seemingly meaningless violence and overly graphic stories. Many people are misled by the news and believe that video games damage kids’ brains. On the contrary, they foster skills and creativity like no other media. For example, is playing video games equivalent to watching television and movies? This is a tough question to consider because both practically involve the same activity: staring at a television monitor. The key difference lies in the interactivity of videogames. Watching Star Wars is clearly not the same as having to decide whether or not to join the dark side. It is this simple fact of role playing that seems to be so controversial. Typical parents worldwide believe kids cannot discern fantasy from reality or that playing violent video games leads to more violent children. This is a myth. For example, every once in a long while there comes a kid who commits a gruesome act of violence. Of course, there has to be something to blame. He played Halo a bit too much. Ironically, perhaps the jury will cut him some slack. This is a complete fallacy in society. It is not the video game’s fault; it is the fault of the gamer. Another common stereotype is that gamers are obese and anti-social. This is again blown out of proportion. It is the responsibility of the gamer to maintain a balanced life style. Also, people tend to forget that video games foster teamwork when playing online with friends. Now, let us see the true effects of video gaming. For one thing, they improve problem-solving skills and quick decision-making. As shown above, one mistake leads to an unfortunate game over screen. Also, puzzles in games are becoming more and more common. Beating video games alone or with friends brings out a sense of accomplishment and ends up boosting our self-confidence. Next, video games can serve as real-life simulators. Strategy games, for example, improve resource management skills. Perhaps the biggest function of video games is a way of channeling emotions. One can experience a huge variety of emotions in a video game. However, the most important benefit of video games is...............

It is an essay with violent content about a subject which many adults consider to be immature. It also lacks paragraphing. I read several admissions essays each week and this is the only one which has totally turned me off. I may be biased, but the admissions officer may also be biased against violence and juvenile themes.

May I suggest that you play safely and start over. Good luck.

Need a Babysitter?
I am a mature, responsible student (12) who loves kids. I am also very enthusiastic, fun and reliable.
I love playing games and reading books to kids so I may bring a couple games for them.
-I have a first aid certificate.
-I’ve had babysitting experience and available references.
-I completed a Babysitter Course.
-I have one younger sibling also.
I will babysit your kids day or night.
$8.00 per hour
MY NAME IS HERE- MY NUMBER IS HERE
Okay thanks for the advice.

If you had a babysitter course, I'm guessing you're at least in high school. So, you're probably in 12th grade... Which is good. That's a great flyer :) The key is to connect with the person you give the flyer with a smile and wonderful personality they can't say no to.

Once you get a little older you can also use SitterFinder.com to find jobs. It's a free service, but you have to be 18.
