How to Create Babysitting Flyers
Babysitting is a fun and potentially lucrative job if you're in high demand. One way to create demand for your babysitting business is through flyers. These flyers can be as simple or as detailed as you'd like. The most important part is the information that's included on the babysitting flyer.
Instructions
Make your name the centerpiece. If you're part of a babysitting team, be sure to highlight the team name. When people are looking at your flyer, you want them to remember who you are, not the pretty designs. Add your phone number or another way to contact you. Most parents prefer to contact you by phone because it's more personable. However, email is acceptable in some circumstances. The flyer should include the best times to call so parents can easily reach you. Determine your cost for one child and the cost for each additional child. Parents are more likely to choose you if they know the cost to expect ahead of time. Don't cheat yourself to try to get jobs. Babysitting is hard work, and you deserve a fair rate of pay. List your qualifications. This is a time to highlight your talents and abilities, and your flyer is the first step to let parents know their children will be safe with you. Previous experience and any certifications you've obtained are sure to impress parents. Choose a design that's appealing and easy to read. Funky artwork and text may look fun, but it also might distract from the message you're trying to send to the parents. Your best bet is to stick to a professional design with a basic font, but allow yourself to appear kid friendly. Print a test copy before you print the flyer. You may be surprised to see that something doesn't look right or that there is an error on your flyer. Have close friends and family proof your flyer before you print out several copies.
