2.0 out of 5 stars Missing vital information., October 13, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Christian Babysitter's Handbook (Paperback)

The information given in this book is okay, but it is the information that is missing that concerns me. There is only one brief chapter on handling emergencies and it is sadly lacking. There is no mention of what to do in case of severe weather that occurs suddenly, a persistent stranger on the phone or is at the door, a child that is choking or gets burned, or any of a million more things that could happen. Future editions should add some of this practical information as well as include a checklist of things a babysitter should know such as the location of a flashlight, first aid kit, breaker box etc. Although it lacks the Christian emphasis, I think that "The Babysitter's Handbook" published by Kidbacks better prepares teens to cope with the realities of babysitting.
