High Energy 10 year old
Posted Friday June 9 2006, 3:40 am
Okay, well, this July, I'm babysitting a 10-11 year old girl named Maggie. She's a cute kid, but there is one problem. She's completely hyper all the time. She gets nervous alot and really easily.
I just wanted to know if ya'll had any ideas for fun, quiet, easy-clean up games that will keep her situated for a while.
This is a FULL day job, twice a week, $50 a day. I know that seems a lot, but trust me, she's worth it.
ANYTHING that would help me with this will help me because I really need the money.
Thanks a ton in advance.
<3 Babysitter.

Babysitting troubles
Posted Tuesday June 6 2006, 7:02 pm
I babysit an 11 year old boy and an 11 year old girl 3 days a week for 4 hours a day. The boy is very sweet, but the girl is a brat. She doesn't listen to me and always does mean stuff to me. She has poured water down my shirt and refused to help with stuff. She trys to make my job very difficult. I don't know why, since I'm very nice to her and I try to help her and do what she wants to do. My family is in a lot of debt so we need the money a lot. What should I do?

Pay?
Posted Wednesday May 17 2006, 6:29 pm
I was mothers-helpering for my neighbor. I had no clue how much she should of paid me. When she gave me the money, I felt she over paid me. One time, for just an hour, she gave me $8. Today, for just 45 min, she gave me $6! Is this too much? (Mothers helpering is when you watch the kids while one of their parents are home) The kids didnt really require that much. There are 2 of them (one 1 year old and one 4 year old.) How much should she pay me per hour?
Also... when I babysit them.. how much should she pay me?

Childhood
Posted Sunday March 19 2006, 10:40 am
Hey, I was wondering if anyone here had some wise, interesting quotes on childhood. NOT on parenting.
Or maybe just some thoughts on childhood?
I'm having a parenting meeting at my house this week and I would appreaciate some subjects we could talk about. Or just some opinions you have.
About the teen-years, even,
Anything at all that you'd like to share.
Thank you.

My little 3 year old cousin lives with me and every weekend on Saturday and sometimes Friday i have to babysit from 6 to whenever his mom comes home.

And i dont ever come out and tell her she should pay me but i've hinted to it before. And we keep him everyday when she works and she never offers to pay any of us. And im tired of doin this on the weekend when i want to hang out with friends to.I love babysitting and i love my little cousin but i cant do this all the time. I buy him food and when i go riding on the weekends i get him something to eat and drink at the store and all...

babysitting help
Posted Thursday March 9 2006, 3:20 pm
Im thirteen and I have babysat my younger sister and some kids down the street once, also my cousin who is four but i dont see her much. Anyways, I have given out flyers and stuff about a hundred times and noone will respond and noone will let me babysit. It s not like im a bad sitter or anything because ive only babysat those kids down the street and they had alot of fun and nothing went wrong. I dont get allowance and I cant get a job for a couple more years. I petsit but very rarely, and I dont have any money at all except for whats in the bank and Im saving that for college. Does anyone have ideas for jobs I could do or ways I can advertise my babysitting more?
Thanks!
