What should I put on my flyer for babysitting?

What to put on a babysitting flyer?

• I'd basically like to know what people like to see on a babysitting flyer/basic information to put on one. Also anything extra besides information, as in the actual construction of the flyer. Thanks. [also i'm not sure about this catagory, so if it's wrong please let me know >.<)

• Answer:

  Great questions. A lot of potential baby sitters in my area clearly don't think things through before going through the trouble of whipping up a flyer, so kudos for asking! Here are my suggestions: Have your name or the name of your "small business" as well as a kid friendly picture (i.e. blocks, a bear, a smiley face, etc.) Be sure to say you're responsible and flexible Don't directly quote your pricing, because some families may be turned off with an upfront price, or they may even be willing to pay more! Give your contact information, both email and a phone number so that there is more than one way for a busy mom or dad to get in touch with you Be sure to also let the reader know if you have refrences and how long you have been baby sitting. If you have any training or back ground information you feel is important (like you're certified in cpr or first aid, or you've taken baby sitting classes, or you have "X" number of younger siblings) Tell if you offer snacks, if you have a driver's liscence, or ANYTHING else that may make you the best candidate in the neighboor hood. It may also help to hand deleiver your flyers through out the neighboorhood so everyone knows your smiling face. Most importantly be up front about you availability and how many kids you can handl.... Check google for flyer idea, keep it simple but cute. GOOD LUCK HUN! :)
