do you want to do babysitting? well that's good.i think it is ok to babysitting, as long as men and boy have experience to handle the baby. and try to make the parent's of the baby, believe that you can handle it. fighting. it is really fun to babysitting a baby, and it is fun to know a boy like you has an opinion about that

Boys can definitely make money babysitting. Tho in this day and age it may be hard to break into the market. I would suggest you get references from relatives who have children, and start out with older kids, preferably boys. Parents feel more comfortable leaving older kids with strangers, and chances are that boys will love a boy babysitter more than a girl babysitter. The boys you babysit will make the best references. When you do get job offers, ask the parents what interests and hobbies the kids have. Then tailor your babysitting to what they like to do. Even if that means you bring over a football, or a new game. Just make sure any activity you do with them is suitable for their age group. The best thing for any kid is a babysitter who will play with them. My favorite babysitter when I was a kid was a man who did magic tricks, puppet shows and played games all night. He was so in demand parents had to book him a month in advance. Good luck.
