I did some babysitting back in high school, but my first 'official' job was the one I got here in Recollé working at the cupcake bakery I'm at now
the interview process was very easy for me since I'd done a lot of volunteering up until that point too, so there were a lot of things about myself I could talk about as reasons why they should hire me even though I hadn't done a ton of baking before the job. For example: I'm a people person which would make me good at customer service, I'm a fast learner, good at organization, and an efficient worker, etc etc
I don't know if I would recommend it to you since we're not really in need of employees right now, but what I can say is that when you apply to any job, keep in mind those types of 'soft' skills that any job would need! You're ten times as likely to be hired if you mention that you're eager for experience and ready to take initiative (like you have here, asking questions!) compared to a guy who just wants the job for extra money
sorry for the text wall haha but tl;dr think about the strengths you have as a person and sell yourself to your potential employer with confidence!
