Babysitters

If I am looking for a babysitter: Typically we get my mother or mother-in-law to watch the kids. However, we also have a wonderful non-family member sitter that we use occasionally as well. She was Kathryn's daytime provider when we were both working before Paul was born. When I am babysitting for people: Now that I'm grown, the only children that I babysit on a fairly regular basis are my two nieces. When both of their parents were working and I was covering the overlap in their schedules, one worked 1st shift the other parent worked 2nd shift, I got paid 20 dollars a day. 10 dollars for each girl. When they were both working I had the girls 4 days a week for 3-4 hours average a day.

i'm a very protective mother and i wouldn't have anyone babysit other than mature family members.and even then i'd call half a dozen times to make sure they are ok.

If you are looking for a babysitter:I prefer someone from my family or friends will babysit my children.I trust them more.if I can't someone who is available to do it,I'll ask for recommendations.maybe they know a trustworthy babysitter. If you Babysit for people:It will depend on the age of the kids I'll babysit.I will probably enjoy babysitting kids who are 7 to 9 years old rather than toddlers or babies.

I used to babysit my sister's kids for free. It's not as easy as some people think. It's actually a huge responsibility, so it's better not to entrust your kids to someone whom you don't know well. My sister trusted me to take care of her kids because she knew that I loved her kids and that I would keep them safe.

I think that babysitters are the worst case scenarios.You often give children to ur relatives or your neighbours whom u trust.I don't think that baby sitters are reliable .

I want to babysit, be a nanny, and do house keeping for a living but theres no jobs like that where i live! but i do enjoy babysitting and wish i had more opportunities

When I was still younger and single, I often volunteered to babysit my nephews and nieces. I had fun doing it. Now that I am already a mother, I personally took care of my daughter since she was born. Now that she is already three years old and I'm working in the morning, it's my cousin who lives with us takes care of her. I don't trust babysitters who are not related to us.

Do nto look for the best friend to take care of your children are young, unable to sit still.Would be best to allow your parents look at childre, in my country, parents are helping children to take care of childre , people are not very many believe that the nanny.

To me, a babysitter should not only be someone who you know very well, but also your child should know them as well. It's all about giving the child a sense of security and feeling safe and being able to trust. Off the topic here, but my niece has been since she was born and still is dumped off onto people who she doesn't know by her own mother and her young life is so scattered. It's not fair.

Well I never done this before.As I opinion A babysit must be above fifteen years old at least He/She can takecare of your baby about you mention get a babysit from agency.I think it's a good piont because they are professional.But choose the baysit should be more carefully.

I don't believe I'd trust my friends to babysit for me. My sister had a very bad thing happen to her when she trusted my niece and nephew to her friend. Now she only trusts family members to watch her children and to tell the truth I don't blame her. So I"d go with a family member or a daycare agency.

If their children are too small i wouldn't trust them to take care of my kids . Kids at the smme age just couldn't look after each other indeed . They will fight all the time. If i have to go out my mother in law will watch my kid for me.

The only people i will let babysit my daughter are a few of my family, my mother, my nan etc, as i dont really trust anyone else because she is fussy without me and is a bit of a mummys girl so can sometimes be a bit to handle. I dont think i could ever trust someone from an agency no matter how many background checks had been done, there was a story in the news recently about a nursery worker who was a paedophile and was selling naked pictures of small kids, so bad people can slip through the net and i just couldnt risk that with my daughter, id never forgive myself if anything happened

It depends on how well i know them. I i am going out i would ask my mother or a good friend of the family. When i babysit for people i do enjoy it. i charge a different amount per age group, each additional child, and if the hours are very late or very early, or if i spend the night. i normally babysit for friends or family.

if i'm looking for a baby sitter. which i don;t have any kids or dogs but if i did. i wouldn't let my sister with my child because shes not that great of a baby sitter i wouldn't trust her with my child unless i didn't have any other choice. i would trust my best friend with my baby because she baby sits already she even volunteers for free at a center for childern.

i would prefer to choose my family.. make me a peace of mind.
