I babysit 3 kids(one 1st grade, one 3rd grade and one 6th grade) 3 days a week almost all day
they don't listen to ANYTHING that I say
if I tell them not do do something,
they do it ANYWAY
and when I make them stop,
They throw temper tantrums!!!!

This is the point where you give them some good rules.
I babysit tons myself, even younger than what you've got.
If they do something you dont want them to its best to be reasonable and talk to them about why you dont want them doing that, if they still dont listen thats when you sit them down on the couch andmake them stay there in silence for a few minutes, every time they disobey you add to those minutes., if they come off the couch you pick them up and put them back until they've finished their time.
This is a method Ive found very useful, x.x at least I'm not as harsh as my mom was.. I feared the bathroom for a year because of her XD. Any who, this works for my babysitting charges, my little nefew even got the hint when I say bed time... he'd better get on my bed and either watch tv in silence until he falls asleep or go to bed.
