Finding a Trustworthy Baby Sitter

Tuesday 18 July 2006 @ 9:19 am

Being a parent can be very demanding. Most parents need a baby sitter from time to time to provide care while they work or to just simply give them a break once in awhile. Finding a baby sitter that is trustworthy and dependable can help to ease the stress associated with child care issues. As all parents know, child care is a necessity at times. It is not always possible to take off from work every time your child has a sniffle and can’t go to school. On the other hand, a parent that is home full time needs a break as well, to rejuvenate physically and psychologically. Since we live in a highly mobile society, parents do not always have family members close by that they can ask to watch the children. So who do you turn to, and how do you find a baby sitter you can trust?

How to Make Homemade Baby Wipes

Sunday 2 July 2006 @ 7:11 am

Having a baby is a huge strain on financial. One way to save money and keep your baby’s skin healthy is to make your own baby wipes.  Homemade baby wipes are easy to make, inexpensive, portable and convenient.  All you need to make them is a roll of Viva or Bounty paper towels, baby bath liquid, water, and a container with a lid.  Consider the savings involved: commercial baby wipes cost around $3.50 per package.  They contain chemicals, fragrance, alcohol or other skin drying ingredients and water.  A roll of Viva or Bounty paper towels runs about $1.  You cut the roll in half, so each roll makes two refills of wipes.  Baby bath liquid is about $1-2, and you only use 2 tablespoons per container of wipes, so it lasts a very long time.  You choose the kind of baby bath liquid you will use, so you can get organic or all natural at your own choosing.
