| | Babysitter Safety And Tips |
 | | Regardless of whether you select a family member, neighborhood teenager or a friend to watch your child, they need to be aware of your child's specific needs and daily routine, safety precautions and what to do in the event of an emergency. |
 | | Inform your sitter of the safety precautions you have taken, point out the baby gates, child resistant locks, smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, electrical outlet covers, toilet locks, etc. Show the sitter where phones, first aid supplies, fire extinguishers, flashlights and extra blankets are located. |
 | | Make sure the sitter knows which rooms and sections of rooms are off limits to your children — especially infants and toddlers. |
