How To Find A Sitter Suited To Your Family’s Needs
She seems perfect. Based on the interview and background check, she seems to be perfect. But you can't be too sure about it. It'll take some time for you to find out.
You got everything done. You posted a job and followed the selection process really well. Just like any concerned parent, you even ran a background check. But don't rest on your laurels, at least, not yet.
Since you have all the information you need, go over it. Review everything. It really wouldn't hurt if you did. No matter how sure you are, take one last look. Dissect every bit of information.
If you're signed up with Sittercity, try to read all the reviews of parents according to this article https://www.iparentinglife.com/is-sittercity-right-for-you/. It's better you overdo it. When it comes to the safety of your kids, nothing is too much. So review everything again. If, for some reason something's not right, don't ignore it. Trust your gut feeling. It's always better to be paranoid.
Do A Quick Check Online
You now have her as your friend on FB. Use that to your advantage. Monitor how she is online. Take note of the kind of language she uses. You wouldn't want someone that uses foul language to watch your kids. Her behavior online reflects a lot about her. So make that quick check online. You might just find out something at the last minute.
Start Strengthening The Connection
You finally hired her. But that's just the start. You need to start building the relationship with her. Don't start on the first day of her job. Start immediately. Invite her over a few days before she starts. Have some coffee with her. Get to know her more.
Although you've started to connect to her, it's not enough. You want to start building the trust. She is, after all, going to keep your kids company. Interacting with her on a social level can help a lot. You can gauge how she is on a social level. Then you can compare that as to how she is an employee. You can learn a lot about her as she transforms herself. So assess her by the way she transforms herself from a friend to an employee. That can speak a lot about her.
The One Thing Your Babysitter Should Do
As a parent, you're doing everything possible to connect to her. You want to make sure you made the right choice. Finding a babysitter is not easy. But you have no choice. A babysitter is a need and not a want. The time will come when you'll eventually need one. That time could be now. And that's exactly why you're on your toes doing everything possible to find one.
But don't focus too much on your actions. Just because you did everything on your checklist doesn't mean everything's good. At some point, you need to gauge how she starts to build rapport with your kids. As you are reaching out to her, she should start reaching out to your kids. That's the one thing that you should see before she takes on her task as a babysitter.
