Isn't that if you're being PAID to do it though, that is illegal. to do it for any form of payment you must be registered.I have a gift for enraging people, but if I ever bore you it'll be with a knife

Hi, I have to say I agree with pretty much all thats been said. Friendship should be give and take, not just one person doing all the taking. I had a "friend" who used to dump her kids on me on a regular basis, and really took advantage. In the end we fell out, and to be honest I was relieved.
If she's a good friend she'll just accept that you can't childmind, whatever your reasons, and if not, then she's no loss anyway.
