The First Job Kit (Grades 6 to 8)

$12.00 CAD

Everything for a first paid job: choosing what to offer, setting a rate, finding customers, keeping records, and handling it when something goes wrong.

What you get

  • Five options that work at this age, and what each one needs
  • An honest readiness checklist, including being able to say no to a job
  • Safety rules written to be read aloud with an adult
  • Rate research and a page for setting your own price
  • A flyer design page and a one line pitch
  • A script for asking your first customer, and what to say if they say no
  • Customer list, job log, and a money in money out page
  • What to do when something goes wrong, decided before it happens
  • Reference collection, because those are worth more than the money

Who it is for

Babysitting, dog walking, lawn mowing, snow clearing, tutoring a younger child, or helping a neighbour with technology. Work done for people outside the family, approved by a parent.

A note for parents

You approve every customer, you are present when the rate is agreed, and you go through the safety page properly rather than assuming it is obvious. Rules on minimum working age, and on babysitting in particular, vary by province and municipality, so check what applies where you live.

The details

  • 14 pages, instant PDF download
  • Grades 6 to 8
