Sunday at church a lady asked if I would be interested in sitting her two children, 9 and 12. I don't have much experience with this before, do you think it's a good idea. The pay is ok and I could use the money, but the mother is also quite demanding and in my opinion have issues or ocd on how tidy and clean everything should be.

Yes do it! It's good experience, you get paid and you help the mum out. The mess issue is easy. When mine were small I used to put a "tidy up" song on (find the longest track lol) and say we all clean up before the song is finished, cleanest is the winner... Yay! Good job kids, we all win. Failing that you can bribe them with stickers and chocolate buttons. 😂
