Well, DU parents also think about their families besides the election, so here I go... :-)
My son is 21 months now and I never had a babysitter before (besides my mother-in-law, but that's for free and doesn't count! ;-) ).
So now I'm going to the gym and he's giving me a hard time when I leave him at the gym's daycare. He sees the place and clings on me as if there was hell, and cries when I'm about to leave. Of course, it breaks my heart to leave him crying, so I'm thinking about hiring one of the girls that work there to came here on our home to babysit him for a few times, so he gets familiar with her and won't be so scared when I leave him at the Club. Plus, my husband and I could go to the movies or just spend some time alone, which would be really nice too since that's very rare for us to have time alone since the baby was born... I'd be solving two problems at the same time. ;-)
Do you guys think this is a good idea? And if so, how much does a babysitter charges? I have no clue about how much it can be, and I'd like to have at least an idea to be fair with the sitter (and not having her laughing when I made her my offer... :-).
Any help is very welcome!!!
Thanks, guys!
