Babysitting Etiquette By: Caroline Williams May 2023 Etiquette Tips for Parents to Babysitters When you are trusting a babysitter to keep your children safe while you are away, it is important to keep them as informed as possible, especially if your babysitter is a teenager. The most important thing is to make sure your babysitter can contact both parents, if applicable. Also, if there are grandparents or other relatives in town, you should share this contact information with them as well. This way, your babysitter will have multiple people to contact in case there is an emergency. Also, it is important to let your babysitter know where you are going and around what time you will be home. Again, this a safety measure that will help the babysitter know when to expect someone to be showing back up at the house. It is also a courtesy to let them know how long their commitment is going to be. Furthermore, it is important to go over some general rules with the babysitter. Let them know if your children have any allergies, how much screen time they are allowed to have, the WiFi password, etc. It is important to give as many details as possible to make sure your expectations are heard and enforced. If you order food for your children to eat, always offer to buy food for your babysitter. Again, this is a courtesy to them for coming into your home and keeping your children. Also, if you have home surveillance, let your babysitter know. Keeping this information from them is an invasion of their privacy. Finally, always talk with your children and let them know who the babysitter is and that they are in charge. This way, the children can associate the babysitter with obedience and know to honor them when their parents are gone.
Etiquette Tips for Babysitters to Parents A good babysitter knows that they are a guest in a home, and they should never cross the line. First off, babysitters should never physically punish a child if they are misbehaving. They should leave that to the parents. Simply put a child in timeout if needed and address the behavior with the parents. Furthermore, babysitters should not abuse their cell phones when babysitting. This includes looking at social media, texting, talking on the phone, and taking photographs of the children without permission. Also, babysitters should always ask before eating any food in the home if parents do not tell them that they can eat anything there. Furthermore, babysitters should not eat the last of any kind of food in the house. For example, if the family has leftover cake from a birthday party, the babysitter should not eat the last slice. Finally, it is always a good idea to knock on the door upon arrival instead of ringing the doorbell. If a child is sleeping, the babysitter could wake them up. Thus, always knock instead of ringing the doorbell. We hope you found these etiquette tips for babysitting helpful! |
