Baby Sitting Essay, Research Paper

Four-year-olds can be a nightmare or a gold mine if you know what to do. Most of us have had encounters with a few of them whether they be our brother’s and sisters or our neighbors’ children. Next time you have an encounter with one you might want to consider the following tips. Toddlers have LOTS of energy, they might run you around the table for hours before they tire. I can honestly say that every child has some sort of favorite character from Batman to Barbie to tellietubbies they will always have one. It might help to find in advance what their favorite TV Show is and there favorite characters so you can plan to watch a video or play with some figures of there favorite character. To help the kids to get into their nightclothes you might want to bribe them into it. Like for example you might say “I’ll let you have a pop-sickle or some popcorn if you can get ready for bed.” But one thing you must ALWAYS remember is to never ever ever under any circumstance give them sugar before bedtime. Now that you understand how to get them calmed down you should relax by letting them watch a Disney movie or a TV show. Kids under five should be in bed by no later than eight thirty no matter what the kids say. I think parents and any experienced baby-sitter will agree this is the most difficult task of the night. Almost all kids will fight to the death to avoid going to sleep. Some methods can vary from child to child depending on the attitude of the kids. First things first to avoid some conflict you should tell them at least an hour in advance when they will be going to bed, this gets rid of the argument “you never told me I had to go to bed at eight o clock.” Next as bedtime arrives you should make sure they are ready for bed, teeth brushed, is your bed ready do you have your nightclothes on? Now for the most dreaded thing “Okay Marco and Amy its time for bed,” is the way it should sound in a nice calm soothing voice. If there is an argument you can start off with being nice like saying “oh really? Well if you don’t go to bed I might just have to tickle you to death!’ Or if being nice doesn’t work the good old phrase “I will tell your Mom or Daddy that you wouldn’t go to bed,” will almost always work. I hope these baby-sitting tips will help you with your next encounter with a child
