Ready To Go: Preparing the Sitter and the Children
Both babysitters and children benefit when parents take time to prepare them for their time together. Here are some things to talk about and to write down before you leave.

For the Sitter...
General Information
Your whole name, address and the phone number of the location sitter is at—she may not know this or forget it in an emergency.

Discipline Methods

Child's typical behavior

Behavior that requires discipline

What discipline methods to use and what not to use. Explain some details of how you do the discipline. (For example; Timeout for 2 minutes, on this chair, within your sight...)

And for Your Child...

Have the sitter over to meet your child a day or so before you need to be gone

Think of special activities for the sitter to do with your child
