[quote=Anonymous]My 13-year-old has a successful babysitting business and is paid $10 an hour for one kid, $15 an hour for two kids. She is in high demand because she promotes herself, is a wonderful communicator, is always on time, and rarely says “no I’m too busy.” She will skip time with friends or any other social activity in order to babysit because it’s the only way she has money to spend at Sephora (I refuse to pay for any makeup or outlandish skincare products.) 
There are plenty of families who want a reliable sitter, so I do not believe most of the responses here are accurate. Lots of families think they hit the jackpot if they can lock in a 13-year-old because then they have that teen for the next six years until they graduate high school. That’s what we are being told by all my daughter’s clients anyway! She is CPR certified for children and infants, which impresses the pants off of most of the clients she works for. Tell your daughter to find creative ways to spread the word about her services because it also teaches her about advertising.[/quote]
