    I don't have any CL postings to post for you, but I have a HUGE pet peeve that someone posted earlier. "AS A MOTHER, I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS...." that is my biggest pet peeve and just gets me angry! I'm not a mother, so I'm not included in anything about how hard it is to find good childcare. UGH, stop saying how hard it is and just do it. LOL. Every other one of our CL postings has something along the lines of "I know how difficult it can be to trust someone..." etc. and I just have to close my page. It also drives me nuts how people say they have a degree or will teach and can't spell either. I try my best to spell correctly and always double check when posting an ad for the business.

I find it easiest to stay home with my children then try and work. Daycare for me alone is atleast 1100 a month to 1500 so i have choosen to stay home with my little ones. To help balance out some bills i watch kids. I should fully be moved by the first week in january. I have a mini van and three seats in back if i would need to transport children. I have a clean driving record. I know it is hard to find a reliable sitter thats affordable. Different people have different needs so i base my rates off of the acctual needs and capabilities of the family. I would provide food and snacks and wipes. would need them to have there own diapers. if there are anyother questions concerns or interest please feel free to e mail me at *********

        I am looking to find a responsible babysitter for my 2 children when I am at work.

        My daughter is 5, almost 6
        And my son is 4


        Hours would vary depending on my work schedule. Usually I would need a babysitter a few days a week (once in a while more). I might need help getting my daughter off the bus at roughly 330 (gets dropped off a block away from my house), and my son (gets dropped off at the house) at about 4pm.

        Transportation is a must, since I do not have my driver's license.

        This would be paid for by DHS! And references are greatly appreciated.

        I would also appreciate if sometime you could help me with rides to work (but is not a necessity when buses run).

        Please call me if this sounds like something you are interested in, or if you have any questions.


        *The bold is mine. I just thought that was a little weird.

        Also, before I was licensed, I was looking for a side job, and replied to an ad for a babysitter. We met up, the girl was 7mo at the time, and at the interview, mom tells me that she likes to hit, pinch, bite and kick. Luckily they went with someone else. A year later, when I was licensed and had my own ads out looking for children, she replied to my ad. We both realized after we had set a time for interview that we had already done this before. She came anyway and this little girl was a monster!! She threw temper tantrums, tried to squish the life out of my kitties (with mom and grandma barely doing anything about it). Just a total monster! Well, again, they didn't go with me (which at that point I probably wouldn't have taken her anyway). A few months later, I see an ad for a babysitter - this woman was trying to bring kids into her home to watch and make money off of. But the really funny part was that she described her dd as a precious angel who was a joy to play with and learn from!! She probably got kicked out of so many daycares that mom decided to quit her job and stay home and babysit.
        This one is tooooo funny!!! Sure let me take you to work!!!

          What is so sad about these 3 ads are the ages of these young ladies, Did they go to school?? I know sometimes I get to typing to fast or like yesterday when I had a screaming baby in my arms and needed to post fast, that I made a couple of mistakes. And I will soon figure out what to download here to get spell check, so I don't make anymore mistakes.::

            we get alot of ads like those but ours is on kijjijji. And most of them belong to young people. But whats even more funnier are the pictures that teenagers include of themselves, omg I don't know if they are looking for a babysitting job or a job at a nudie bar.

                This is not a Craigslist ad, but the following link is the application that I have to use and it could give off a bad impression. See the 2nd page 1st line.



                Here is another link to an ad that would take up 3 pages if I quoted it on here. She repeated everything countless times. I don't think it's a mistake because the same ad is posted more than once.



                Here is another one...

                I have availablity in my home for FT or PT care. I am just starting out and have no other children in my care at this time. For that reason I am offering a low rate of $2 an hour for the first two children placed in my care. I am located in Hammond across from a park for lots of outdoor acrtivites. I am available all hours and will work around your schedule. Refrences available upon request. Please email any questions that you may have.

                She may regret that later.

                I also saw one a few weeks ago offering free breast milk.

                      Oh my gosh - what the heck?? For as educated as she is, you would think she would know how to spell, and not to repeat herself over and over again!

                        maybe she has multiple personalities and they were all posting at the same time.

                            I have to say that once I read this I laughed out loud and all of my DC kids turned around to look at me like I had finally gone crazy . Thanks, I needed a good laugh.

                                I just found this one...boy she must have had some bad families in her time Quite the ad though!


                                Hello, thank you for reading my post! I'm interested in finding a new family full time that won't take advantage of me. Working is serious business when one has bills to pay, food on the table and a roof over ones head, plus gas in ones car. I have been taken advantage of so many, many times, it's not funny anymore. I can not live w/out work. I love what I do. I enjoy what I do and I expect to be treated w/dignity and respect. I'm nobodies doormat.

                                I'm a friendly, female Nanny who has been caring for children the last 35 yrs. I have experience w/newborns, multiples, up to 4 siblings and 8+ in a day care setting. I'm CPR/First Aid Certified. I'm looking for a full time loving family w/stable days/hrs., paid holidays(if the holiday falls on my work day), 8 paid sick days per year(when your children are sick, not me, because you would need to find backup and pay them) and 10 paid vacation days per year(when you take your vacation, not me). We can discuss these details during an interview.

                                I don't Smoke or Drink. Pet Friendly. Have transportation. Own a cell phone. Low Rates. I will Love Your Children as if They Were My Own! I have managed to raise 2 wonderful children as a single Mom since '97. My Children today are 22, a Petsmart Mgr., living in Cincy, soon to be running the Petsmart Hotel in Cincy in Jan. 2011 and is in the United States Army as a Combat Medic. She will be deployed this Spring/Summer to Haiti to care for the sick. In the Fall she'll be returning to school for 2 yrs. to finish her major, Broadcast Journalism, w/a chance of another deployment during this time to either Iraq or Afghanistan. Also, my 24 y.o. BK Mgr. w/2 yrs. of Culinary School under his belt, is hoping to own his own store in the near future. They are great Children. I'm so proud of them!

                                I have a resume due upon request w/all my references.

                                Please, Serious Inquiries Only!

                                Thank you and have a wonderful and safe New Year!
