Answer 1

I think it is very comprehensive.

Your mother being a teacher is irrelevant. It is also obvious that they call to see when you are available.

Make sure you use some good fonts and highlight some of the information. Reading it like this is really wordy. If I saw your flyer like that... I would have quit reading it half way.

Highlight your name, experience, location (but I'm sure where your fliyers are handed out are part of your location), Trustworthy, firstaid and CPR and your contact info.

I would not have I am 14, soon to be 15. That sound very unprofessional. The flyers you pring while you are 14.. say 14.. and the ones 15... say 15. "Soon to be 15" definitely sounds like what a kid would say. Little kids are always saying that they are 12 and a half... and such. Really, it does not matter. You don't hear adults saying that they are 45 and a half.

Also, if you have where you are willing to work, you dont' need to tell them where you currently live.

I hope that helps.

Make sure that you have a professional sounding e-mail. Make a new one if in doubt. I just want to make sure because your current screen name is "Yo Moma". If you e-mail is that type of thing, get a new one.

Answer 2

Say: Hi, my name is Brooke. I live in *** and am available to babysit locally.

Maybe instead of saying you are 14 soon to be 15, you could say you are 14 and will be turning 15 on (date)

Do you have references? (people who you have sat for previously and will vouch for your ability?). If so, you could say you have 3 years of babysitting experience with references
Instead of "Prefer" you could say: Will babysit children ages 10 months to 10 years

You are using many of the same words when describing yourself. Try using: I have a great love of children and am very reliable and honest.

I have taken classes in first aid, CPR, and babysitting infant and children. Will be certified in the near future.

I do not mind doing light housework or walking the dog. I will also bring activities for the children if you wish.

My prices are negotiable, please call me to discuss price and availability.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at the numbers or email listed below.

I look forward to hearing from you. Have a safe summer!

Sincerely,

Brooke


Hope this helps a little. Good luck!

I would hesitate to put your cell and email address on there. There are a lot of creeps (child predators) out there that might take advantage of the information. Be careful where you distribute this flyer too... I wouldn't put it up just anywhere (waste of money) but take it to a church or some function where families go.

Other than that you've covered a lot of ground and you're writing is very classy. I'm very impressed. I do marketing for small businesses where people have 6 times the number of years you do but cannot come close to putting together an ad as well as you can.

Answer 4

Boy for a 14 year old, you did a great job!!! If i had kids, I would look you up!!! The only thing I might add would be References Available. People might want to know your history from a reliable source just to check you out. See if you can get one of your other customers to write a letter of recommendation for you. that way youcan make copies and give them to other potential clients.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 5

You are so cute!!! Good Job, I think its great. For 14-15 you seem very mature. If I had kids and needed a BBsitter.....YOU'RE HIRED!!!!

Good luck to you!!!!

Answer 6

Answer 7

Mother irrelivant

Answer 8

I think it's perfect... If I had kids, I would hire you!
Good luck!
