as a working mum we have no choice either to use babysitter or maid kat umah. tp bg i i would prefer for babysitter because i dunt like stranger at our home.
now i believe im having a very good babysitter, alhamdulillah....mama lela pandai jaga rayna, every time i fetch her for mama lela's house rayna will show her happy face n trust ma gut feeling dat she been doing a very good job. :D
it is very important for us to ensure either we have a good or bad babysitter. this is a very interesting article...tujuh tanda babysitter jahat, i have found this at http://www.babycenter.com
It's not always easy to know whether your child's caregiver is doing the job she's supposed to. To find out, you may have to do some sleuthing. Some parents who suspect something may be amiss rent surveillance equipment. But it's often possible to tell whether something's wrong without going to that extreme.
You may have trouble on your hands if:
• Your baby isn't happy to see the sitter and has become anxious and withdrawn. A regular caregiver can never replace Mom or Dad, but a baby needs to trust and love his babysitter. Perhaps your child and caregiver haven't bonded, or the babysitter just isn't providing the kind of warmth and comfort your child needs. As in every human relationship, having the right chemistry is important. (If you suspect something more serious is wrong, educate yourself about the signs of child abuse.) (yes definitely, rayna has chemistry wif mama lela, sbb she seems so calm when see mama lela, n bila nak balik she couldn't take her eyes of mama lela)
• Your babysitter seems secretive about how they spent the day. How your baby and his caregiver spend their time shouldn't be a secret. When you come home, you're probably eager to hear about your child and what happened while you were apart. If your caregiver isn't forthcoming about it, either she's not good at communicating with you or she has something to hide. Even a caregiver whose English is limited should be able to convey the ups and downs of your baby's day, and will understand why you want to know. (no, no, no this not happening for me, sbb mama lela will report ape2 aje yang die n rayna buat sepanjang hari :), contoh "kak lela bawak rayna jalan-jalan amik angin arini", i believe her...dan i juga tawakal pada Allah agar diselamatkan rayna dari ape2 perkara yang buruk)
• Your baby has been in one too many easily avoidable accidents. A babysitter must keep her eye on your child and know what he's doing at all times to prevent injury. She may be leaving your child unattended as he sleeps or plays. (alhamdulillah, x pernah plak rayna ade luka ke ape2, pernah le one time dahi rayna lebam, x sempat i tnye die dh explain...kepala cucu die berlaga ngn kepala rayna..xpe2 kepala rayna kuat :D)
• You notice your requests aren't followed. Both of you are working together to care for your child, so a caregiver shouldn't act as if she knows more about him and childrearing than you do. (owh..i will tell wut is gud for rayna, example mama lela bg air masak kat rayna n she did told me..as i exclusively breastfed my baby..i wouldn't allow air masak..so i bgtau mama lela n alhamdulillah die follow :D)
• Your babysitter often shows up late. An undependable caregiver will leave you in the lurch time and time again. Find someone who you know is committed to the job and considerate of your needs. Tardiness and unexplained absences may mean she's unreliable in other ways as well. (nie x berlaku sbb i yang hantar rayna kat umah mama lela, die x pernah xde kat umah each time i hantar rayna)
• Your baby often looks unkempt and dirty. If your little one's caregiver can't take care of the basics, it may be a sign that she's not on the ball when it comes to meeting your child's needs. (hehehe smlm i bgtau mama lela, wahh rayna macam pengawas sekolah sbb rayna nmpk so kemas n her hair was comb neatly hehhhehe)
• Her stories don't add up. Never tolerate someone who steals, lies, or deceives you in any way. You have to be able to trust your caregiver for the relationship to work. (alhamdulillah...i trust her, besides die mmg biasa jaga baby, n mama lela used to take care of her grandchild..we have a mutual trust on each other)
mama lela, she is a very gud lady, her age is like my mum...so i treat her more or less like my mum, all i know she been doing a very gud job since rayna sihat n happy. now badan rayna dh berketak2, alhamdulillah semuanya berkat susu ibu :D bukan nk bangga diri, tp i really proud of myself when i look at my dear rayna because i managed to breastfeed her for about 6 months, insyallah i will extend it until rayna 2 tahun.
