Well , I would first talk to people you know with small children.
But even if you get one job , doesn't mean you can get another after that.
Just act nice and don't be too rough.
Good Luck!

I know Its strange little kids seem to love me, Like one I went to the doctors office for a sprained mucle, I was watching this kid play and he asked me too play, and I dident even know him, Lol.
Parents sometimes think it's cute to have younger children babysit their kids (I first started when I was like twelve or so) but it helps if they know you well, like if you know their family from church or something.
To get "known", I would just suggest babysitting for families you know first. Tell your parents that you want to earn some money doing it, and to spread the word, and soon enough you should have a couple of invites. If you do a good job, they'll inform others about it, and soon you'll be all over town watching kids.
It might be hard for you, though; babysitting any kid older than six or so would just be bad (too close of an age gap), and most parents want to keep their younger children (0-3 years) around them at all times, so the age range you could responsibly babysit is kind of small.

I would try to start with someone you know. I don't know of anyone who'd want someone who is 12 and no known experience to watch their kids. If you do a good job with your first kid(s), you may find another request or two later on.
Anyway, I'd just try to not to get too high on the age, especially when you aren't even a teen yet. Most kids aren't going to want to listen to someone who is just a "big kid".
Then again, I have no experience, as I can't stand kids.
