I used to stay up until about 1:00 am when I was a kid because of GAD, an anxiety disorder. I went to therapy, and I'm a lot better now, but I encountered the same problem with another young kid. The girl was about 8 years old, and was very anxious. After having her stay awake until I left for 3 nights, I knew something was wrong. I got the courage to tell her parents about the problem. She's been in therapy for about a year now, and she's getting a lot better!
It’s really best because you want to know if you connect with the kids. It helps to see if they immediately warm up to you or not. Before you meet with them, ask these questions safesitter.org/4-questions-ask-taking-babysitting-job/ and then, set up a time to meet with them. If you already know the kids and the employer, just ask the ASAP questions above and you’ll be good! Thanks for the question!!!
Can you do one about how difficult babysitting potty training children is, and some tips to help out? Thank you to I love your videos and when I am ready to start babysitting I will know exactly what to do!
I was babysitting a little 2 year old boy and we put him in his bed but I texted my mom and she said to let him cry in his crib until he fell asleep and he did
Perfect my first baby sitting gig is starting soon I’m so excited! Oh yeah I’m baby sitting a dog well a puppy A HYPER PUPPY lol I’m going to baby sit kids soon but not yet I’m going to take the baby sitting course thanks for the tips :).
I’m pretty good at making kids (At lease my brother and my cousins) fall asleep. BUT, this will help with other kids and also, I’m just doing my research, because next year I will be 11 and I will be old enough to go to the Red Cross Camp for babysitting, and I will be able to babysit! But, this is very helpful and I love your vids! 💕💕💕
The kids I babysit are in preschool and kindergarten, and at bedtime they take turns getting out of bed and running around the house! They are sweet angels during the day, but at night, they are evillll! Any advice?
Let them know that you are in charge when their parents are away and that it is time for sleeping, not playing. If they still won't follow the rules, call the parents and ask for advice.
Another thing to get them to bed on time is to start the routine early! That way they can do the whole routine before bed and still get to sleep on time! Also read them books and play little games like Rick paper scissors! Consistently check on them. Little kids may come out of the room a lot but keep bringing them back! They will eventually stay!❤
I love this! This is why it is SO important to make sure you ask a parent or guardian about the bedtime routine! Trying to follow what mom or dad does makes life much easier for you in the long run. So take notes!!
@@BabysitterBoss thank you sooo much for responding!!! But I have a question? If we are in charge of making them dinner and the parents don’t really have something planned what are some yummy but nutritional things we can make them?
When I was Little I am terrified of the dark after tropical storm Sandy I was also afraid of severe weather when my parents came back from Connecticut to Pulaski New York my parents told the babysitter don't forget we survive tropical storm Cindy and now she's afraid of severe weather and emergency alerts on television
You need to follow the child's bedtime routine. Explain to the child that it is time for sleeping, not playing. If the child is upset, comfort the child with a story or a song.
These have been so informational so far! I'm going on a marathon of your episodes. To all the expert baby sitters. How do you convince your parents? I found a $20 online class, but my parents arent having it. They think i'm still too young to start babysitting(im 12 btw). And even though I wont be able to babysit until 2021 probably, I still want to be prepared! Any tips or things I should consider?
Amy Stice I would say age 13 is probably the youngest, as most parents wouldn't hire any younger, even if they would hire you i'd still recommend waiting a bit, but its up to you and your parents
Most babysitters start in middle school, around the age of 12 or 13. Age isn't the biggest factor to start babysitting. You need to make sure that YOU are ready for the responsibility of babysitting. Take a babysitting safety course like Safe Sitter will really help you to know that you are ready!
Babysitter Boss I’m so excited that you responded cuz I’m actually babysitting right now for four kids!! ( also will you watch my one video on my channel? I made it with two of the kids)
I am 13 and I have to take care of 4 kids there age is 5,4,4,1 on Thanksgiving and i have done this before but they don't like to sleep so I am watching this video 🤣
Also make bedtime into a game take it from me I’m 10 if you make it into a race or a game then it’s fun also have a race to see who can fall asleep first if they have siblings or a stuffed animal ask the parents if you can give them a small prize in the morning such as a tiny chocolate piece also I’m 10 and when I’m tired if I just become not wanting to be hyper anymore not playing or doing art saying I don’t feel too well or just watching the iPad in bed for more then 2 hours without getting up too much just tell me to put the iPad down and try to sleep that’s basically how I know and how u can know if anyone here would babysit I’ll be asleep within 5 to 10mins
Poison is serious (and I have a video coming out all about poisoning in season 3 to be released in March!). Call 9-1-1 if the child takes anything that might be poison and immediately gags, vomits, becomes sleepy, has trouble breathing, has convulsions, or loss of consciousness. If the child takes anything that might be poison but has no immediate symptoms, call a back-up adult to come and help you. While the adult is on the way, call the Poison Center at 800-222-1222 and have the poison container available. Poison Center will tell you whether or not there is a problem, and what to do.
Here’s another tip I came across: Make bedtime sound more appealing by encouraging them to put their toys to bed.
I babysat this kid and he literally just told me he was tired and just went to bed. It took like 5 minutes and I was low key kind of scared.
Freaky! I babysit too and it’s the exact opposite for me!
Lucky that never happened with me lol
scientificely impossible

Do you have to meet the employer? Can’t you just talk on the phone and take notes?

Awesome! Puppy sitting can be as challenging as kids and definitely good practice!
I had to put a 3 year old boy to bed but he would not go to bed! I’m babysitting him today so I bet these tips will help!
i had my first babysitting job yesterday, and they really did not want to go to bed, i ended up having to lay down with them to fall asleep
If you told me to go to sleep, I would without question....your the boss!
Thank u I'm 11 and I just started babysitting this year your video really helped

Hi I am a baby sitter and this has help me a lot and if you are looking for a baby sitter comment on this post
Thanks for the good tips gorgeous!
Of course!!

That's no good! I can't imagine surviving all of that!
Hi! Do you have any tips if the kids ask you to sleep with them and keep getting up? If it was only one kid it would be okay, but it’s three at once.
You need to follow the child's bedtime routine. Explain to the child that it is time for sleeping, not playing. If the child is upset, comfort the child with a story or a song.
These have been so informational so far! I'm going on a marathon of your episodes.

Maybe direct your parents to this article ... safesitter.org/child-ready-babysit/
My parents didn’t need convincing lol I’ve been babysitting my cousins for a year and I’m 11
My mom lets me stay up as long as i want even on school nights, and I'm only 10.
I hope you had a wonderful sleep 🛌
Aww
My mom lets me play my I-pad entail 9:00 and go to bed at 10:00 I am 8 years old and I am writing this with my calico cat named Peaches!!😺
You have a fun mom! Hi Peaches!
I have a idea for another when things go wrong: fainting child
What do you think is the right age to start. I am 11, have a CPR license , and my friends and family have been telling me to start for YEARS
Amy Stice I would say age 13 is probably the youngest, as most parents wouldn't hire any younger, even if they would hire you i'd still recommend waiting a bit, but its up to you and your parents
When I am 14 I want to babysit but I don't know if my parents will let me but that's so try
I’m Wondering I want to start babysitting what is a really stable age kids can start babysitting? That most parents trust kids
Most babysitters start in middle school, around the age of 12 or 13. Age isn't the biggest factor to start babysitting. You need to make sure that YOU are ready for the responsibility of babysitting. Take a babysitting safety course like Safe Sitter will really help you to know that you are ready!
I babysit my twin cousins and sometimes, they WILL NOT stay in bed - a glass of water, a night light, can’t sleep, and more - what do I do?
You need to be firm with the child. Tell the child that it's time for sleeping, not playing. Be sure to tell the parents when they get home as well.
Babysitter Boss ok thank you!!
Babysitter Boss I’m so excited that you responded cuz I’m actually babysitting right now for four kids!! ( also will you watch my one video on my channel? I made it with two of the kids)
One time my friend me and my sister fell asleep wile my sister was babysitting, yes the sister who was watching us feel asleep

What if they drink poison
Poison is serious (and I have a video coming out all about poisoning in season 3 to be released in March!). Call 9-1-1 if the child takes anything that might be poison and immediately gags, vomits, becomes sleepy, has trouble breathing, has convulsions, or loss of consciousness.
