- Nanny Mania and Babysitting Mania (see the References section)are popular online babysitting games. As the nanny, you must help clean the house, cook the meals, and feed, change and entertain the children. As the babysitter, you must perform similar tasks. The game begins with one infant. As it proceeds, additional children are added and the levels become more challenging. You can play these games free online, or purchase them from different sources. Most online sources will allow you to try the game for an hour before you purchase it. Nanny Mania 2: Nanny Goes to Hollywood is also available.
- While some online babysitting games involve sitting for children in a "home" setting, there are also games that involve a day care or camp setting. Baby Care Rush (see References) is set in a day care, and has a bit of a revolving door approach: children come in the door, are placed in beds, given whatever they need to be happy, and sent out the door. If you make enough children happy and you advance to the next level. Diaper Dash is another babysitting game with a daycare setting.
- The Barbie (www.Barbie.everythinggirl.com) website features a simple babysitting game that allows you to care for Baby Krissy. There are a variety of tasks you may be given, such as bathing the baby, dressing her, playing with her, building sand castles and shopping for the baby. Upon successful completion of the game, you can print out a certificate of accomplishment. This game requires the least amount of skill of all those discussed here and is ideal for younger children.
