ok i babysit this little girl shes 3 and when its close for her to go to bed she starts crying because she misses her mom what do i do. (link)
I babysit a lot and what I find best is to just cuddle them or sit with them in their room until they start to calm down or dose off. maybe put some music on or read them a story something to ease them into bedtime instead of just having to lay there alone.

Other things you can do:

1) have them "write" a note to parents to give them when they get home (you can write it for them but let them tell you what to write)

2) when it starts to get close to bed time put in a movie. they might fall asleep or just help them wind down.

3) Pretend to go to sleep with them. They may feel like they will miss out on somthing when they go to sleep if you are "awake"
