How do I show earning $1250.00 babysitting income

That would be reported in the Self-employment Income section in the Wages and Income area of TurboTax. You need to set up a business there, as you are considered to be a business owner when you report self-employment income. Choose the General Income category to enter your earnings. You can enter business expenses for any associated costs you incurred that were ordinary and necessary to generate your income.

If you are under 18, you do have to report baby sitting income until your total income is more than $14,600.

 

Even if you are over 17, you do not need to report baby sitting income unless the amount is more than $2600 or your total income is more than $14,600.
