[quote=Anonymous]Dd took the Red Cross babysitting course and then a child first aid course. Once she passed those, I posted about her on our town's listserv, and she started working as a mother's helper. She was 12 at the time. Within a short time, people who has employed her as a mother's helper started leaving their kids with her alone, and that turned into babysitting, and they started paying her more. She is 15 and has a list of families who call her now. I think it's totally appropriate for you to post about your daughter and help her find appropriate families but she needs to do the legwork to start with respect to finding the courses to take and writing her own ad. Dd now makes good money in the summers and over school vacations, and it's a very nice little gig she has going. I wish your daughter good luck! [/quote]
