What Every Babysitter Should Do

Do you ask your babysitter to pick up your kids from school every now and then?
In addition to the things your babysitters shouldn’t do, here’s one thing I definitely think you should make sure they do, especially if they’re new.
* Know what your kids look like.
Think I’m kidding? One babysitter in California picked up the wrong kid on her first day on the job.
A baby sitter bungled her first day on the job by picking up the wrong 5-year-old boy from his elementary school, police said.
Angel Guerrero was taken by mistake Monday when the woman arrived at the school and took him without knowing what the child she was to care for looked like, said Sgt. David Cannan.
The good news is that everyone went home to their respective families. But I can’t imagine the terror the family of that little boy went through.
It’s good to make sure your child knows who’s supposed to pick him/her up, too.
