Babysitter wanted


Recommended Posts

As some of you know I work long, varied hours.I'm considering a number of options, including a center for the youngest(4) with my teen doing after school for the school-ager(8). Anyway, I work 3 12 hour days a week, varying days with every third weekend. I leave at 6:30am and get home about 8pm. I get my schedule 4 weeks at a time. Option A) have someone come at 630 and do all day. Option B)take the 4 year old to a center on weekdays and have someone do 4-8 for the 8 year old. Option C) Have someone just for the weekends and occasional other times. Option D) just have someone on list for occasional needs. I prefer someone I know, or someone that knows someone I know well.

If anyone is interested/available or knows of centers with extended/weekend hours in my area, please PM me.

:( It interferes with my work schedule. I'm actually great with kids and like OTHER people's children (people always assume I'm a child eating witch just because I don't have/want any of my own) but during the weekdays I work also. I could do weekends, I never ever work weekends, but how long of a shift would weekends entail? I'm trustworthy, I do NOT steal (I even feel bad when I accidentally take pens from banks), I know all there is to know about proper parenting (not saying I'd be parenting your kids or anything, I just know what to do in most difficult situations), I'm punctual, nothing crazy like drugs in your house or bringing guys in your house (I know this would seem VERY obvious, but my mother had issues with those two things when I was being babysat as a child, usually happens when you hire teens as sitters though), etc.

    • I am currently floored.   FedEx did a massive 6 box delivery to the wrong address.  I had an autoship order scheduled to arrive before this past weekend.  Nothing showed up.  I contacted the order site and they had a link for the order...a photo of all my boxes thrown in the snow and up the sidewalk of a residence that was not mine.   You would think that at some point, the driver would have looked at the delivery address after they kept throwing box upon box at this location with no shelter from the elements.  They didn't even knock on the door to inform the residents that massive 65+ pound boxes were left all over their walkway.  Nope.  Just dumped them, took a photo as they were walking away and left.   I wonder what the person who found all of those misdelivered boxes must have been thinking when they saw them.  Maybe they kept everything to use, distribute or sell.  No idea.  No claim was filed on that end as of yet.   Fortunately for me, one of the sites that I ordered from, replaced everything at no extra cost.   Unfortunately, now I'm concerned for the other items yet to be delivered.   Needless to say, I'll be watching my notifications like a hawk.

    • ~~~~~ Yeah, thank you for the check-in.   Happy to say it was all a misunderstanding.  But she pulled out her "ghetto" and that's when things went South.  I get very professional minded when I enter into situations like that because when someone starts bring the court into conversations, I'm in court 2 times a year, every year, so don't go there with me because I will get legal all over you.   She did try to change what she thought she might have said, but I had to call her on it because it's all in written text.  Then she apologized and we were able to have a decent conversation.   I know I joke about me talking so much that people don't hear what I say except for keywords that they are looking for, but that is exactly what happened here.  She heard "payment", "money" and "help out".  It was crazy.  I literally had to have the entire conversation all over again, but I definitely condensed it to only address those 3 words.   Things are back on track, but I emphasized that if she every needed clarification for anything, please say something first instead of jumping to conclusions, then questioning that conclusion, then answering that conclusion, then getting upset at the answer and taking it out on someone who doesn't have a clue what the San Juan Hill just happened.   But this is exactly the reason I do everything with a paper trail.
