FINDING A BABY SITTER TIPS

Your first challenge is recruiting a potential babysitter. Here are some ideas:

• Start looking for a sitter early. If you wait until the last minute, you may not be as discriminating in your choice.
• Ask family, friends, neighbors or coworkers if they know of any good baby sitters.
• Advertise for a baby sitter in your local church, civic organizations, high school, or newspaper.
• Find certified baby sitters in classes conducted by your local Red Cross or YMCA
• Check your phonebook or internet for baby sitting services . Here are some things to keep in mind:
    ° Services with an insurance bond will cover certain damages or losses to your property; however, most are not likely to protect your children in any way.
   ° Check to see if the sitting service conducts criminal history checks and screens its employees.
