When I was pregnant with my first child I had a midwife.  I got her through the hospital that I delivered my baby at.  May be you could contact area hospitals to see if they hire midwives.  See what type of licenses are need in your town to be come an independent midwife.

If you have taken a babysitting course, list this fact.  In addition state that references will be given when requested.  Be sure that you gain permission from your former employers before giving their names out as references.  If this will be your first babysitting job, then list any responsible situation that you have participated in such as Girl Scouts, Junior Achievers, etc.  If your pastor or preacher knows you, then you might ask him if you can use him as a reference.

First off, you need to have the patience of a saint, (or at least a high level of tolerance), a heck of alot of energy, a highly evolved sense of humor and alot of creativity.  You will be working with some extremely difficult kiddos and the parents at times can be just as difficult. You have to be teacher, counselor, nurse's aide, friend, mentor, role model, engineer and artist. It's the most rewarding job you can get!!!

Why in the world would you want to work at age 12? Enjoy your childhood - you have plenty of years of work ahead of you, believe it. Otherwise, how about babysitting??

i use to model and my advie to u is to discuss with your parents that you want to get into modeling,have them surf the net and search for the top modeling agencys in your area.make sure you take 2 head shots of yourself with no makeup or just a little bit of makeup(cause the agency wants to see how your skin looks) then take a picture of your whole body.mail those pictures to the agency or take them there directly.whe they call u back make sure u walk with some more pictures of yourself and have your mother represent you.if they ask u for money upfront do not pay cause if any agency wants you u dont have to pay a dime.probably for your pictures unless u get a job through the agency and u pay for them that way.make sure u get a agent who can also represent u and make sure u research and see if your agent is the right person to represent u and knows how to get modeling jobs for u

It's not hard if you are willing to start at the bottom and learn. The pay may not be great, the job may not be your dream job, but you have to start somewhere. Without much experience, you can't be too fussy. You also need to be able to commit to a regular schedule. Fast food places are where lots of young people get their first jobs. If you're in college, see if there are jobs on campus or if they can point you to internship opportunities. Sometimes school or childcare centers are looking for people to help with after school programs. The main thing is you have to make a strong effort and not get discouraged if you don't get hired right away. Check on line listings like monster.com and Craig's list, but also pick up the local newspaper and check the help wanted ads on a regular basis. Keep looking, keep applying, keep networking. You can find a job!

Nanny Salaries: \nSalaries range based on years of experience, demands of the job, location, and whether you want to be a live-in or live-out Nanny. \n Live-In Nannies - Salary ranges from $350 - $700 per week \n Live-Out Nannies - Salary ranges from $400 - $800 per week \n\nI am a graduate of Northwest Nannies Institute, and this is current info from their website. (http://www.nwnanny.com) This is for a full-time nanny, and they do placements all over the country.\n\nI have also worked in daycare, and it is a considerably cheaper option. At the weekday school I once worked, for 1 child it is $160 per month per child for 5 days of the morning session (8:30-12:00).

Having my first baby.

I hate to tell you this hun, but very, very few places will hire 14 year olds.  I actually had a job bussing tables when I was 14, but it was a horrible job for me because the managers were jerks and they didn't treat me very well.  I was also probably too immature at that time to handle a real job.  I would have been better off just babysitting for the summer and waiting a couple years to get a job.  I would say babysitting is your best bet.  I know you said you tried, but it shouldn't be difficult to find babysitting jobs if you really want to.  Take the Red Cross babysitting course, which should make you more marketable.  They will also share your name with people looking for babysitters.  Put an ad in your newspaper, and do a little networking.  Tell people you know (family friends,etc.) that you would like to babysit and ask them to pass your name on to others.  Good luck.

Being 13 you are limited by what jobs you can do and how many hours you can work.  \n\nHave you tried newsagents for paper-rounds?  \nPubs/Restaurants for dish-washing/kitchen jobs?\nTry going to different shops to ask if they take on Saturday staff.  You may have more luck with larger chain stores, eg. Woolworths/Dixons than small independent stores.

Ahh, the good old days...just kidding! Actually, I can't legally get a job yet either. Babysitting is an EXCELLENT way to earn money, as long as you're responsable. Taking a babysitting course (I did) can improve your chances of finding a family that will accept you. Also, doing odd jobs for older neighbors perhaps...shoveling, raking, planting flowers, and other things they can't do. Good luck! (and don't loose hope, you'll be 16 before you know it!)

I have a 1year old and it took me forever to find the right person.  Now you have an advantage Your child is old enough to tell you what their doing in a day. Ask! You'll also notice a change in attitude. With Allyson I knew I had good odds she's a univeristy grad in child care; but she get's them outside Brad comes home pleased as pie about his life and says oh a lot:) She also taught him a cool high five and low five a skill everyone year old needs. If it's not working pay you care and find someone else
