Stuff for sitter

AmandagStark · May 2014

We've recently hired a sitter for LO because I got a job where I'll be working two days per week. I'm trying to think about stuff I should purchase extra of so that the sitter can have things he needs and we don't have to continuously switch items back between us.

Here is what I have so far:

Sunblock
Bug repellant
Sun hat
Bottle
Clothes
Spoon for food
Blanket
Teething toy

Trying to think of stuff she can just keep with her so I don't have to bring a bag full if stuff every day. What else?

Does the babysitter have toys or books for your LO to play with? I'm assuming you added diapers/wipes/ to the list too. Would you want to drop off a box of diapers and wipes to have there instead of packing a diaper bag every night? I'm anal and like to pack LO's bag so I know how many diapers she went through at DC.

I would send diapers and wipes in a bigger box maybe weekly or so just because I know with DS some days he uses way more than I would think to take. I would also leave some toys permanently just so you don't have to take it back and forth.

@alylove11‌ : she does have toys, I might pack one or two things of HIS for security though. I was thinking of purchasing a large pack of diapers and wipes and leaving it there. Thanks for the comment!

I think it's a great idea to bring something of his to leave there. Are EBF? My babysitter has 1 day worth of milk in case I forget it. In fact, I forgot to bring milk last Tuesday, so that helped me a lot.

Yes! Thank you, that sounds like a great idea! Busy mornings, I can see myself doing that.
