Comments on: how i got dumped by my babysitter http://www.mamabirddiaries.com/the-mamabird-diaries/how-i-got-dumped-by-my-babysitter/ a humor blog about life as a new york mom Fri, 10 Sep 2010 12:37:34 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=abc By: Sitter for 3 http://www.mamabirddiaries.com/the-mamabird-diaries/how-i-got-dumped-by-my-babysitter/comment-page-2/#comment-25447 Sitter for 3 Mon, 14 Jun 2010 02:26:51 +0000 http://www.mamabirddiaries.com/?p=5379#comment-25447 I babysit a lot and I think I would've cleaned it out, but I would've been completely disgusted. Diapers are one thing, but kid poop? In a dry toilet? EW. My kids will have one of those rings in a regular toilet with a stepstool because that is gross. If I was less experienced I may not have known how to deal with the situation. I babysit a lot and I think I would’ve cleaned it out, but I would’ve been completely disgusted.

But probably a good thing. What else would she just leave for you? A kid that threw up all over herself? Peed her pants and sitting in wet clothing? It's just common sense. I would do it if I were visiting a friend's house, let alone being paid to watch her children! That’s silly. But probably a good thing. What else would she just leave for you?

Once the poo is done kids are on the run and she probably ran after your girls and forgot to return to the potty. Now she is intimated that you called her on it.

I just started reading your blog. I am a babysitter and have been doing it for five plus years now. The babysitter should of understood that poop is just part of the job and you don't leave it lying around. Are you talking about West Chester PA? Hello. I just started reading your blog.

Maybe the sitter was leaving it for Mom and Dad to show praise to the toddler ~ just kidding but if your kids are 'safe' with the sitter, lighten up and focus on your evenings out. In the end it's all about keeping them safe with peace of mind while you get some time away.
