I come from a working-class family, and I've been working since I was 13, from babysitting to blueberry picking to factory work to bookstore work. And of course, being a mother and homemaker, the hardest work of all.

Patti Smith

I was working part-time as a cleaner while I was going to college and then babysitting after school.

Alek Wek

I've honestly been really lucky. My only jobs have been babysitting and acting.

Anne Hathaway

I did babysit a little bit when I was young. I prefer babysitting for babies. I always loved babies. I was not as great with kids that wanted to be entertained and that wanted to talk.

Ari Graynor

K to 12 is partly about babysitting the kids so the parents can do other things.

Bill Gates

I do this sort of thing where, even for my own shows, I like to supply my own fingerprint of creativity. Not just ideas, technical things: offering model data, creating visuals for my stage show myself, babysitting renders, learning that technology as I go. That's what makes me feel like an artist.

Deadmau5

Young people: marry simply, start your life, and party later. Think of how much babysitting for your future colicky baby you could buy with that wedding budget. Think of how much marriage therapy you could buy. Invest in your marriage, not your wedding.

Glennon Doyle Melton

I spent my summers in Connecticut scooping ice cream and babysitting.

Grace Gummer

I told somebody once, 'You don't want the Herschel that plays football... babysitting your child. When I am competing, I am a totally different person.'

Herschel Walker

When you're babysitting a kid, all you're seeing is a version of them, a small dosage.

J. B. Smoove

Ted needs someone to be there 100% of the time. He thinks that's love. It's not love - it's babysitting.

Jane Fonda

I always remember this neighbor who would ask me to babysit for her. She looked like Jayne Mansfield, and I remember babysitting for, like, five hours and she would pay me 80 cents, with a phony smile. I used to go home fuming to my mum.

Jennifer Coolidge

My job is not babysitting people; my job is focusing on making the best band I possibly can.

Jerry Only

I'm a lot older than my little brothers and sister, so I think I grew up babysitting them.

Josh Hartnett

My only after-school job before I got into acting was babysitting. I had younger brothers and sisters.

Juliette Lewis

I babysat kids in a ShopRite, which is a grocery store. They had a babysitting center so that parents could bring their children while they shopped. It was awful. I also was not very good at keeping the kids calm.

Kate Micucci

At a meet and greet in a nightclub in Texas, a girl who looked about 15 years old gave me a VHS copy of 'Adventures in Babysitting,' and she whispered in my ear that it's really just home movie footage of her dad practicing judo.

Katya Zamolodchikova

It's more along the lines of raising a child: we train the system to a certain range of behaviors that we find most useful. But then we let it go, because we don't want to have to be babysitting it the whole time.

Kevin Kelly

I remember clearly, when I was about 4, my Aunt Linda said, 'I'm not babysitting him no more. He's bad.' It was one of the first conscious shifts I remember making. I decided, 'I'm going to be good now.'

Mahershala Ali

I grew up babysitting and always enjoyed it. I love family. A couple of my closest friends have kids, and I'm their godfather, and that's one of my greatest pleasures in life, just picking them up from school and hanging out with them.

Matthew Perry

I used to watch 'SNL' when I was babysitting, after I put the kids to bed. It was the Gilda Radner and Bill Murray era. I loved it.

Molly Shannon
