"Hi! My name is Aisha Puri and this is using a babysitter. When leaving a babysitter in charge of your family and children and your home, it is very advisable to leave emergency contact numbers where they can see. For example, on this size piece of paper, you can post it by your phone on the wall so that it can be seen. The numbers should contain the mother’s and father’s cell phone numbers, possibly where they are going to be, poison control, the physician and the nearest hospital. Also, the sitter can also have the numbers programmed into the cell phone if they happen to be out and that way at any time, the sitter can call immediately. On the other side, the parents should also have the sitter’s number programmed into their phone in case an emergency happens on their end. They can call home immediately or get in touch with you as soon as they can. Once they get in touch with you, you can explain everything that happened but it saves on looking for the number and not knowing the number and having to waste time to search for everything. So that way everything is in place. My name is Aisha and thank you for watching."
