If you needed a babysitter, where would be the first place for you to look for one?
Answer:
Church bulletins, grocery store bulletins. Call a friend and see if she has a sister or neice or even another friend who would know someone of age that would be willing to babysit.
church
Your local red cross has a list of those that are certified and looking to provide child care and they usually come with references too.
Are there some babysitting registries in your area? Or how about your local church? They might be worth a try.
hospital
family relatives
close friends
neighbor
I would either ask the neighbor kid if they sit or I'd ask a friend who they use or I'd use a service. I have used a hotel sitter when I've stayed at pricey hotels. All of these are of course if Gramma isn't available!
Friends
relatives
babysitting agencies
church
try to make friends with a mexicans family they are very good.
The American Red Cross offers classes for babysitters, and should be able to point you in the right direction. But like most things, good old-fashioned word of mouth is usually the best way. Talk to other parents with children about the same age as yours.
I'd ask friends and neighbors.
ask your friends teenage kids
my family babysits b4 anyone, then its my best friend
If I needed a babysitter for an hour or 3,I'd try with my parents,with my sister,with a teenager in the neighbourhood who I trust.If I needed a baby sitter for a long time(2-3 years) I'd send my child to kindergarten or I'd look in the internet for babysitters(or in the newspaper).
I have a few trusted neighbours and friends to do my babysitting for me sometimes.
