I call for babysitting planning !?
what kind of things should i do while i'm baby sitting ? and how much should i charge per kid and hour ? any websites where i can download some tools ? thankfulness !
Safety first! Then, as a parent, I would ask our babysitter to spend at least 2 hours a day outside: in the park, within the backyard, on a playground, or walking/biking around the neighborhood.
Read a book.
Play some board games.

It all depends on what age the children are with what you can do near them. Ask them what they would like to do or offer to play any games that they have beside them. You could colour/paint/draw/art crafts with them. Read to them or with them, watch films. Just own fun with them but make sure you still come across as the minder not just a friend otherwise they will try to help yourself to advantage!
Depends how old you are and how much experience you have on what to charge them. I am 21years infirm and a qualified childcare worker and I babysit on weekends and I charge lb5 per hour for babysitting no matter how many children but I will only look up to 3 children at a time otherwise it can find pretty hectic. If possible learn first aid this will give parents more reassurance with going away their children with you.
Hope that helps and good luck x Source(s): Experience and I am a child strictness worker.
Answers: It depends how old the children are. I babysit my niece who is 18 months, and just play with her toys(Winnie the Pooh "phone", her moms ancient deactivated cell phones, her baby dolls, her play set, her slide, all her toys). We love to look at her books,. I just agree to her do what she wants to play with, and play with her near them all. We also play games like I "chase" her and corner her- she thinks it is hilarious- after she turns around and chases me. I play with her the whole time(I have babysat her for up to 5 days beside no breaks when her parents took a trip, with help, but I usually babysit her for about 5-6 hours, for 25 dollars. We don't usually babysit for so long. I also put her to bed most times, and stay to see her). I know some one who babysits a 5 year old and a 7 year old and gets compensated the same as me, because it's for 2 hours, not 5-6. So it really depends on a lot. The pay depends on the kids, how oodles kids, how long it's for, and what the parents are willing to pay you. Ask the parents, then negotiate to a appropriate price. Sorry, I don't know of any websites, but I'll look! Good luck and have fun! Source(s): Personal Experience
