Tips For Choosing A Babysitter
18th January 2011
The UK Babysitter Trend Report, conducted by Parentchannel.tv, reveals that parents are more likely (63.6%) to turn to their mother, and father (33.8%) for babysitting duties and least likely to turn to professional babysitters (4%) and babysitting circles (1.4%).
Jacqueline Harding of Parentchannel.tv said, “Families are probably more likely to turn to grandparents to babysit in a recession. For those parents who don’t have family members nearby, our new video gives lots of tips on finding a good babysitter.
“Whether you use a family member, professional babysitter or a local teenager, it’s a good idea to leave a list of emergency contact numbers for them and check that they know what to do if something goes wrong. Making sure you have the right babysitter who both you and your children trust is essential, otherwise you’ll end up spending time worrying.”
