RE: The 13 Stages Of Putting Kids To Bed (Told In GIFs)
I can say, every baby sitter we have says the kids are angels, but there are moments when we try to put them to bed. You sound like you are good at your job. That is funny about your dad. haha, I feel bad for him. I know it's like clock work with my daughter. She doesn't come in when my wife has a headache lol
I promise you they up it a little. Shockingly enough there's no better way to have good kids when babysitting than to have the kids back. If you tell on them, especially for something minor, they'll get you back, let it slide and they'll listen and treat you well :^)
Just last night when I was babysitting one of the kids grabbed a phone and started playing a game on it in his room, even though he isn't supposed to use it that late, and I told him he can't be on it for more than a minute or two because his parents may be home in a few minutes, a minute or two later I walk in and warn him of their impending arrival, I hear one of their voices, he shuts it off, and good for him he was saved by literally 1.5seconds.
It's all about building that mutual trust and solidarity where they know you aren't just fucking with them to spite them.
Honestly there's no job I'd prefer more. I don't need tons of money and I'm good with spending basically nothing, it's fun, and it keeps me active and doing things. Thank goodness I like/don't-mind kid-things as if not I'd be slaving at a grocery store probably. [shivvers] ewwwh!
I mean every night with my father too, I would literally not even go to my bed, I'd just go to bed directly with my mother. Every single night. Absolutely #Shredded if you ask me.
