thanks i rate 5's

The best piece of advice I can give you is TAKE INITIATIVE!
If the timing seems right, ask about food allergies, what the child's interests are...show that you are going to be involved with their kid and not just supervise them. Reassure them that you are saftey concscious. If you get a chance to meet with the child, get down on their level and play a game with them as if you were their peer. It's so important that the child is comfortable with you and it puts the parents at ease when they know their child will be okay once they leave.
