pardon my ignorance, what is a babysitter survival kit?



Kelly

uhhhhhhhhh Sorry...It is a packet with...



"~tips for finding, choosing and hiring the right sitter

~tools for communicating information about your child, your household rules, and what to do in case of an emergency

~dozens of fun activities for keeping kids of all ages entertained

~basic childcare and safety information, including emergency first aid for infants and children

~A dry marker and magnetic, erasable board for handy placment of emergency numbers"



It is a little book/kit for the sitter's benefit...it tells all kinds of goodies and provides you a place to write important numers like the pediatrician, etc....to call.



I ummmm picked up three extra ones at the dollar store (cheap-o that I am) because I thought they were kind of neat and I know there are several of us with little ones.....

I must say, I don't think I need them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amy just finished her first semester of college. She called me the other day and said "Mom, guess where I worked last night? Maternity!!!! My baby, a freshman in college,a nursing assistant on weekends, was swaddling newborns and taking them to their mothers, and teaching the mothers how to change diapers. AAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH

I'm 44 years old and the mother of an adult.

The following night she called us and said "guess what

Mom, I just saw my first code." She was working on a Surgical Trauma Unit, she wasn't even upset, more like fascinated. I was upset that she had witnessed this, survived it, and didn't ned me.
