Chapter 6, Lesson 5- Review
What questions should you ask before you accept a babysitting job?
The number and ages of the children, the time you will be needed, how long the parents plan to be gone, the rate of pay you will receive.
Why do toddlers require a lot of attention?
They have a short attention span. They are busy moving from one thing to another. They may have separation anxiety and need to be comforted when their parents leave and have their attention redirected from missing parents to an activity to take their minds off the fact that their parents are away.
How do you redirect a child?
Offer a favorite toy, puzzle, game to get them to focus on something else. A goodie bag of ideas the babysitter has brought would be helpful to entice a child to attend to the new activity.Slide9
Chapter 6, Lesson 5- Review (continued…)
As a babysitter, what could you do to prevent children from objecting to family rules?
By asking parents to go over the family rules in front of the children. The children will know that you know the rules and know their parents expect them to follow the rules that were clearly stated. A babysitter can redirect children with appropriate activities, give them a choice between two appropriate activities. When a babysitter stays involved in the child’s play, the child is less likely to have the opportunity to misbehave.
How might you get recommended for babysitting jobs?
By being a reliable babysitter- keeping a constant, careful watch over the children using the babysitter’s checklist, not allowing your friends to visit or call you while you are working, not opening the door to strangers. By engaging in play with the children under your care, by providing age appropriate games, books, and activities to do when babysitting (goodie bag). By letting parents know you have received a babysitting certificate from the YMCA or learned about babysitting in your FCS class.Slide10
