The wiki how of babysitting

This site might actually help a newbie babysitter or mom.

“Here’s step 1: Check your calendar to make sure you are available when asked to babysit. This will help avoid the frustration of a last minute change of plans due to poor planning. Find out what time you will be needed, night or day, and again check to make sure you are available. If not, you can ask the person if you can babysit another time, or babysit another child. All of us can’t babysit at the right time, whether you go to school, whether working, whether busy or you have a kid to take care of yourself.”
