mid teen holiday care

I can offer a mid teen (GCSE/A level) summer holiday 'care' for those whose parents continue working. I'm at home anyway for my own A level student daughter who is quiet but not very studious. Quiet environment with food prep, and occasional day trips. Where can I advertise this to other similar parents?

why woul 16 year olds need 'care' unless they have quite severe additional needs.

This.

Your target market would be probably 10-12-year-olds who still require childcare.

It sounds like something that might benefit teens who are less confident for some reason (if they don’t want to be home alone/ with their mates for whatever reason).

So perhaps advertise where it will be seen specifically by parents of kids with SEN?

I can't imagine a gcse/a level student would need babysitting unless they have additional needs, mine spent the summer with friends, in town, lazing in the park and going to the beach (and a lot of time sleeping) I didn't even think about arranging care for them

At 16 mine sorted her self out. Even went to the coast for a few days with friends who had a family apartment there. Certainly didn't need babysitting. In fact once at secondary school, she did some camps but otherwise was at home/out with friends.
