## Description

For live-in nannies, Saturday night sitters, and everyone who cares for kids. Answers to the questions sitters ask most: The parents want me to pick up their newborn every time he cries—won’t that spoil him? A child who comes over for play dates always makes a terrible mess and never helps to clean up. What can I do? The girl I baby-sit for tripped and got a bump on her head. What’s the best way to tell the parents? I take care of a six-month-old and a three-year-old with completely different sleeping patterns. How do I juggle naptimes? Packed with information and insight, the What to Expect Baby-Sitter’s Handbook covers all the basics and so much more. How to keep a child safe and what to do in an emergency. The top five reasons babies cry, and eleven surefire ways to calm them down. Taming temper tantrums and tempting the finicky eater. How to talk to a baby and how to get a toddler talking. Bathing, potty training, sibling disputes, time-outs—and how to make the family-sitter relationship a happy one. Plus, a special fill-in section where parents can write down what they think is important for sitters to know about their kids.

Plus, there are sections for the parents to fill in personalized info for their child(ren). The handbook sections age groups within each catagory so you don't have to read about ages that are not applicable. I think this is a MUST for every parent leaving their kid(s) with a sitter.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty Good
*by D***7 on May 19, 2012*

This is a good book! I have read other babysitting books and I have to say that this isn't my favorite. I do like how it was very informative and covered a wide range of topics. I also think it was easy to read and I liked the layout of the pages. My only real issue with it was that it isn't really a book for beginning babysitters. I doubt that parents will ever want the girl next door to be dropping their children off at play dates and such. In my opinion it was more focused towards being a nanny(which it does say in the description that it was for both nannies and babysitters). On the other hand, this book covered topics that I haven't seen in other books that I've read such as bathing the baby and how to make fun things to play with. I actually ended up buying the book anyways because it was so enjoyable to read. So, yes, this book is good, and I would probably recommend it to someone else. I just think it was for more experienced babysitters and nannies than beginning ones.
