Babysitting is one way that grandparents can be a frequent fi xture in their grandkids’
lives.
Babysitting tips
for grandparents
Witnessing your children getting
older and starting their own
lives and families can be bittersweet.
There is pride that comes with
seeing their successes, but also the
melancholy of knowing that the years
have passed so quickly. Although you
may no longer be tucking your children
into bed, reading them bedtime
stories, or bandaging “boo-boos,”
when your children have children, the
chance to nurture can start anew.
One of the great joys that comes
from having older children is the ability
to welcome and love grandchildren.
Grandchildren are points of light in
people’s lives and provide the exuberance
and excitement that reminds you
of your own youth. Grandparents often
are thrilled to be involved in the care
and upbringing of their grandkids.
Some may also live with their grandchildren
to help take some pressures
off of adult children.
Babysitting is one way that grandparents
can be a frequent fi xture in
their grandkids’ lives. If it’s been some
time since you cared for little children,
it’s well worth it to take a refresher
course in child care:
Make sure it’s safe
Conduct a safety audit of your
home if grandchildren will be coming
over to your place. Are outlets secured
with covers? Are medications you may
be taking out of reach? Do you have
gates to block stairs or restrict access
to certain rooms? Modifi cations may
be needed.
Assess your health
Chasing after children can be a
workout. Be sure you are up for the
challenge and have the stamina. If
you have any medical conditions that
can impair judgement or reaction
time, you might want to reconsider
babysitting.
Take directions
The way you parented may not
be the same way your own children
parent. Be humble and follow their
lead with regard to instructions. The
parenting guide Apt Parenting advises
that you should ask about the
eating and sleeping habits of the child.
You may have to defer to your own
children’s guidelines on discipline
and behavior.
Learn what’s new
Many things regarding childcare
have changed in the last 20 years, including
safety laws and guidelines.
Be sure you are up to date on these
changes. And if you aren’t certain
about something, ask. This involves
everything from crib bar widths to car
seat installation.
Babysitting can be a joyous task for
grandparents who are ready for the
job.
