Need Babysitters - DESPERATE

[Chickpea]

As kind and as nice as everyone here is it has been my limited experience that parents guard their babysitters here like they were liquid gold.

Can anyone on this board offer some suggestions/referrals. Be honest, be blunt and let me know if the names you suggest have been tried and tested. I haev a feeling this link will help so many people.

Also, I live here full time (luck me!!!) so would appreciate mostly names of people who also live here. Many thanks in advance.

I know of one, but she requires truthful, detailed knowledge of your kids, before she would ever say yes. :funn:

I know one but I would have to kill you if I told you.

Seriously, pm me your name and number and I will forward it to her. She will call you if she is interested. Not being snooty. She is a busy person and always trying to please people, sometimes taking on more work than she should. ;-)

I don't know if this is true in SoWal, but here, if you call your parish church, they will share their list of babysitters. Mostly high school teens or retired grandmas.

Speaking of which, were is the SoWal high school? I know where the grade school on 30-A is, but that's all.

It's on 331 just south of the bridge.

Thanks. I know where you're talking about. The high school might be another source of babysitters, too, if you put a little ad in the school newspaper. Teachers could provide references.

I have no idea and I would love a good dependable babysitter! don't know if I want a teen though.
