It sounds good. ...
and THATS way Cheap !
dont disclose your price, and tell them "at a very affordable price" instead.
2nd: dont mention "through a class in middle school " jsust tell em you have general knowledge in .....
dont bombard them wid words such as trustworthy, reliable, loyal, responsible, and a great, loving ...... make these change into like "i have been trustworthy towards all my previous hirers."
Make sure you tell them about your experience in the Start, not the Very End
you want to close it by an action .. like >call me ! that is a great one

Excellent!
I would add:
- testimonials from happy mom's - use actual quotes that you have their permission to use, and list real names and cities, plus kids ages. the more testimonials, the better. Also include pictures if you can.
- How old are you, a pciture, where you go to school (but don't post it on the internet of course!)
- Mention that you have adult backup available - for example "at least one of my parents is always home when I babysit"
- list some things you will and will not do, such as:
"I will bring toys to amuse the kids, and do my best to make sure they have a good time. I change diapers, if needed. I have your kids do homework, if needed. I get them in bed at the time you want. I will NOT: eat any of your food, spend all evening ignoring your kids while I talk on the phone, invite anyone else over, or do anything else that you wouldn't want me t.
Good luck - and charge high rates!

Thats a great flyer but you need to include your age and the school you go to. You could also change a bit more because you are experienced. Maybe 8 dollars per hour instead of 7

good,very thorough,but you are missing a few tiny things. 1. when after school can you work 2. what type of small meals can you cook 3. how old are you 4. what is the maximum age you can babysit 4. is your babysitting license up to date
once youadd all that in you would be set.

Personally, I would want to know your age first before hiring you. I was young once too...hence I'm leary of hiring young teenagers.
Over all, it sounds good. If you don't want to sound too young, try leaving out the 'middle school' class - I would just say 'courses in first aid, cpr and babysitting'
Good Luck!

Well I would certainly hire you. You have a great resume there but you would need to get references if you were in this Country UK. Well done and I hope you do well.

I would need to know your age, but besides that you did a great job. I would hire you.

Yeah but shorten the flyer by cutting out these two parts. "Call me to see when I am available. I am usually available on short notice. If you would like to contact my references, please contact me for their names and phone" Instead put, please call for availability or references.

it's good, but i think that's kinda high $ to charge. some ppl can't afford that, but still need a babysitter. i tell the ppl i babysit for that i am flexable with the $, so that they can still have a babysitter and go out when they want to.
