Allparentsdeserve a night off every now and then.
According toKidsit, the average family will hire ababysitteronce or twice a month.
But they may need one more or less frequently, depending on their schedule and their specific needs.
Nowadays, there are a variety of ways to find someone to watch your children.
Ideally, your sitter will have plenty of experience and glowingreviews.
Its also wise to ensure theyve been properly trained and know CPR and/or first aid.
Then, of course, you want to ensure that your child enjoys being around them.
But its not only about what your child thinks of the babysitter.
Its also about how much your babysitter enjoys spending time with your kiddos.
You dont have to scare them off, but allow them to be prepared for whats to come.
Parents also must be prepared to pay a higher than average rate if their children come with special challenges.
This might also help babysitters be open-minded andpatient if they know theyre earning a decent amount for their time.
This should help the sitter feel more comfortable and open to watching your child again in the future.
But if the sitter actually gets assistance and support from the childs parents, it might be manageable.
