Instructions and Routines

Hey guys,
Today’s post will be about instructions and rules. When I am babysitting, usually there is instructions to follow. The mum might leave me a note saying what to feed the kids, bedtime, TV rules and other important info. I know, when you first start to look after that family you will get the initial information, but sometimes the rules might be changed slightly. If you are babysitting on a school night, little Charlie might have to go to bed at 7:30, but if it is a Friday or Saturday night, the rules might be changed. Charlie can go to bed at 9:30 with half an hour of TV.
Some rules I have been given include:
1 Only feed the kids half the bag of wedges and they can have two nuggets each.
2 Half an hour on technology.
3 Bedtime no later than 10.
You kind of get where I am going with this.
I am sure there are many other instructions and rules that parents have left for you.
When they leave instructions written down, I usually keep them in a binder folder, and then I can refer back to them later if I need.
Leave some of your rules that you are given in the comments below!

Food Safety

Hey guys, Today’s post will be about food safety. I found some useful tips on preparing food, handling food and serving food. 1       Wash your hands. Remember to wash with warm soapy water for at least 20 seconds, before and after handling food, before feeding infants and children’s, and before and after changing nappies.        Wash eating areas with warm and soapy water. This includes tables, benches, plates, bowls, cups and cutlery.   Always watch infants and children when they are eating.        Avoid feeding children under 5 years old, food that is small, round or hard. This can include hotdogs, whole grapes, lollies, popcorn, nuts, carrots, apple chunks, and gum.        Keep dishwashing detergent and soap, away from little kids, to avoid accidental poisoning,        Ask the parents for specific instruction on how to safely prepare baby bottles and food. ...
