Looking for babysitting work
Hi my name is Pippi James and I'm 14 years old. I'm a student at NGHS and I volunteer at Lollipops Educare in Ahuriri as part of my Duke of Ed bronze medal. I really enjoy my time at the daycare as I love spending time with children. I am looking for babysitting work on weekends and after school (I can also do overnights if necessary).
I charge $12-15 per hour depending on the number of children.
Please contact me on 021 102 9063 if you have any questions or would like to book a great babysitter!
Thanks, Pippi
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
