The Business Blueprint · A separate course

Turn babysitting into real income.

Getting certified makes you good at the job. This is the part that decides what you earn — the rate, the words and the paperwork, rewritten for someone who babysits.

The difference

Same hours. Very different money.

Most sitters wait to be asked, then take whatever is offered. This course flips that.

Before

  • You take the rate the family names.
  • Your profile says “I love kids and I am reliable” — like everyone else’s.
  • You hear about jobs last, if at all.
  • Someone cancels an hour before and you get nothing.
  • Getting paid means an awkward text days later.

After

  • You name a rate, out loud, and it holds.
  • Your bio gives a parent a reason to message you first.
  • Families come back, and send you their friends.
  • You have a cancellation policy, and you say it calmly.
  • An invoice goes out and the money turns up on time.

Price yourself properly

16 MIN
1.1
Working out your real number — your area, the number of kids, the hours, and what the job actually asks of you.
1.2

Asking for a raise — when to ask, what to say, and the three answers you will get back.

2.3
Flyers and cards — what goes on them, what to leave off, and editable templates.
03

Find families who pay well

15 MIN
3.1
Where families actually look — neighborhood groups, school lists, word of mouth, and which platforms are worth your time.
3.2
Becoming the name that gets passed around — how local recommendation really works, and how to get inside it.
3.3
Turning one family into five — the referral ask that does not feel awkward.
04

Win the job

19 MIN

06

Run it like a real business

20 MIN
6.1
Money and taxes, explained plainly — what to keep track of, and what the IRS threshold means for you.
6.2
When it stops being pocket money — several regulars, insurance, and what changes when you grow.

From sitter to nanny — what the step up involves, and what to charge for it.

Who teaches it

This is marketing, taught by a marketer.

Everything in here comes from more than ten years of getting real businesses found, chosen and paid — the same positioning, pricing and outreach that agencies charge companies thousands for, cut down to what a babysitter can use on a Tuesday.

Which is the point: none of it only works for babysitting. Knowing how to price yourself, write a profile that gets replies, ask for a raise and send an invoice is training you carry into any job or business you do next.

Questions

Before you buy.

Do I need the certification first?

No, you can take this on its own. But the certification is what proves you can do the job, and this course is what gets you hired for it — so most people do the $45 certification first and then add this for $49.

Is this the same as the modules in the certification?

No. The certification covers looking after children: safety, ages, routines, emergencies. This is a separate course about the business side — pricing, finding families, contracts and getting paid. There is no overlap.

How old do I need to be?

It is written to be readable at thirteen and useful at thirty. If you are under eighteen, some of it — contracts and taxes especially — is worth going through with a parent.

Will this work where I live?

The rates and the tax section are written for the United States. Everything else — the scripts, the bios, the interview, the referral ask — works anywhere people hire babysitters.

What if it is not for me?

Email us within 14 days and we refund it in full. There is no form to fill in.

Do I get the templates as files?

Yes. Every template downloads as an editable document that stays yours.

Get certified. Then get booked.

Start with the $45 certification. When you pass, this course is waiting at $49 — and you will know exactly what to do with it.
