Oh so love this game! If you like Diner Dash, Wedding Dash and Cake Mania type games, then you will totally love this!!! It is addictive! I am 28 and I have been playing it for hours on end and there are so many levels and I am not even anywhere near finished! Well worth the money! A MUST HAVE!

I love time management games - like Diner Dash. In the Nintendo ds, there are only one or two games of time management and one is the Babysitting Mania. It is easier in the first part and it gets harder. I have not managed to get one half through the game yet. I have enjoyed this time management game for I play a lot of T/M on the internet.

WOW & I thought I was almost half way through the game.I will be 40 Sunday and I am nit even close being that I am only on level 11 and there are 100 levels.
You pick up trash,change duapers,warm bottles ,pick up clothes ,do laundry put it away,pick up toppled over plants and trash.Certain Kids have cerytain allergys.Have a cup of coffee for a quick burst of energy,shut off stereo,shut TV,Clean aquarium,Make Beds,Clean Computer screen, Fix couch and chair coushins,put books back on bookcase.Pick counters up and clean up fridge plus more and have the kids in bed before the parents get home.
Go from house to house in neighborhood,some ghave babies,some toddlers,(that have different activity levels)or are allergic to certain foods,give them a time out and much more,played at friends but will be buying very,very soon,It took me a couple of hours (maybe almost 3 just to get to level 11 where I am stuck.
The kids refuse to sleep in a messy bed but tear it up after you make it so it must be ready at bedtime,which is hard w/all the other stuff going on,but challanging,addicting,exciting.Fast paced Time Controlled.

Much in the vein of games like Cake Mania and Diner Dash (which I am a fan of), I thought this game would be similar. It is kind of similar but -- I don't know if it's because of the limitations of the small DS screen or otherwise -- the only thing this really has in common with them is the time management skill (rush around to complete a certain set of tasks before time runs up). It just involves pointing at a bunch of various areas and then the babysitter (you) rushes to that area and straightens it up, and then moves onto the next area. There is a bit of a variety of functions when performing higher tasks (like feeding the baby or changing a diaper), but generally it's pretty monotonous and boring. Not to say that making cakes or bringing pizza to tables isn't monotonous, but like I said, in Cake Mania and Diner Dash, you're expected to simultaneously multi-task and balance the workload. In Babysitting Mania, there are only a few multi-step tasks that can allow you to multitask, but generally you have to finish cleaning up the living room before cleaning up the nursery (and yes, those are your tasks). And you don't even do... detailed things. Plus, even in the multi-step tasks, you have a rowdy child running around making a mess, so chances are if you take the time to pause while changing the baby's diaper and clean the living room, you'll probably have to do it again once you're done feeing the baby. You just point at the highlighted area and the onscreen babysitter cleans the area, and then you move onto the next task.

Not recommended.

I ordered this Nintendo Ds game for my 11 yr. old granddaughter. She loves it, and the shipping time was great. I will order from this store again. Thanks so much for a great transaction.

I bought this game for myself. I love games like Cake Mania & Diner Dash so thought I'd try this one as well. Wonder when part 2 will be out. I have nothing bad to say about this.

I can not believe this game it is so boring i got it because it had good reviews but all you do is run around picking up things i played one games and stopped cause i realized i litterally falling asleep. If you're over 9 DO NOT GET THIS GAME. It is only for little kids that are easily distracted. It's not even babysitting all you're doing is being the maid. All you do is clean. So seriously dont get it it's the most boring game ever.

Stupid and pointless. The levels all look alike and are all beaten the same way. You find the kids and sit them down, go clean some stuff, sit the kids back down, go clean some stuff, sit the kids back down, go clean some stuff, and so on until the parents come home. I had the house clean and the baby fed with half the time still on the clock and spent the rest of time making sure the kids didn't move. I think I played 6 levels before I gave it to the 7 year old across the street. This is not a game for adults.

I'm 12 years old and I got this game a year ago and I still haven't finished it.Don't take this as a good thing because the reason is because #1 Something happened so now I can't get back to where I was so I have to start from the beginning.#2 I don't remember what level of the game I was in but I couldn't get past it. You see your a "babysitter" but when you get there the house is a mess and there is garbage and clothes everywhere in the house so you get coffee(there's a coffee maker in the kitchen)and you put the kids in a time out(by touching them with your thing,the kids made the mess)you then cleanup the mess while you go back and fourth touching the kids(the have a timer)and stuff.I'm not gonna tell you to buy this but I'm not gonna tell you to not buy this,it's your choice.

I have been trying to locate this game for over 6 months. And I was blessed and fortunate to locate it here on Amazon.com.It is also one of the best games I have ever played
