OMG yes, I babysat for YEARS! I loved it! I babysat for 8 families (not all at once, obviously) and was "booked" every Friday/Saturday/Sunday nights. Then I had a regular job of every afternoon for 3 hours. My youngest was an infant, and my oldest was 12. I never had a job besides babysitting. I miss those days! (It made some pretty awesome $)
