How to Baby-sit For 10 Kids

Hello, my name is Courtney. I am 24 years old. I would like to tell you how to baby-sit for 10 kids. I baby-sat for 10 kids on Saturday night, from 4:00 pm until 2:00 am. I was VERY tired. I had to go to their house on 2703 Partridge Crescent, in Regina, Saskatchewan. The mother had to rush her 3-year-old to the hospital (she had fallen off the couch and cracked her head open!), and she had called me to baby-sit. At first, I thought, okay, this will be easy, but it really wasn’t. All of the kids were screaming. Isaac wanted things that were breakable and started freaking out, Kayleigh was pulling on Tylan’s hair, and, to make matters worse, a 2-year-old started a food fight. It was CRAZY!!! It was a good thing that I had my baby-sitting course, though. I got it 10 years ago(when I was 14). I got it at a church on the outskirts of Regina. Lauren trained me. She taught me how to do CPR, and the himlick maneuver, and what to do when there is a fire, so if you want to be a baby-sitter, call 924-7381.




Top 10 tips to become a great baby-sitter!
1- If the kids are annoying you, put earplugs in!
2- If they constantly ask why you put earplugs in, tell them you can’t hear them!
3- Lock them in the bathroom if they be bad!
4- If they eat all of their supper, give them dessert, or they will freak out!
5- If there is a fire, save yourself!
6- It’s best to baby-sit with a friend!
7- If they get stuck in a tree, call 911!
8- Don’t let them eat the goldfish!
9- Don’t let them pull the cats tail!
10- Remember not to leave them home alone, if you go out!
