I bet she\u2019ll want to read some with you.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Lisa\u2019s really good at building with blocks. She\u2019ll show you when she visits.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Talk about what the new caregiver looks like, how friendly she is, and how much everyone likes her. This helps little ones feel more comfortable with the idea of being around someone new.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li><strong> Have a Meet-and-Greet\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Especially if this is your baby or toddler\u2019s first time being cared for by someone new, it helps to have an introductory session a day or two before your child&#8217;s first solo time with the new caregiver. Invite the caregiver to come over and spend at least an hour with your child in your presence. This initial visit benefits everyone involved. It offers your child an opportunity to spend quality time with the new sitter while also feeling safe with you nearby. You get a chance to observe their interactions and offer helpful tips. It also allows you to discuss details that will make the caregiver&#8217;s job easier (her favorite toy, how to best soothe her, foods she doesn\u2019t like, scheduled nap times, etc).<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li><strong> Involve Your Child <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Toddlers may be more open to a new caretaker if they feel confident and in control. When your new sitter arrives for a meet-and-greet, involve your toddler in the process. Allow her to show the babysitter her toys, tell her the names of her stuffed animals, or show her new friend her room. To boost her excitement for the first meeting, ask your toddler to draw a picture or make a welcome sign. This not only sets a positive tone for the introduction, but also helps <a href=\"https:\/\/www.babysparks.com\/2020\/01\/09\/teaching-positive-assertiveness-to-toddlers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">your child feel more assertive<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> Plan an Activity for the Big Day <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Having an activity planned for the first time your child is alone with a new caregiver can be a healthy distraction. About an hour or so before the sitter arrives, tell your child that she\u2019s got a fun day ahead of her! Whether it\u2019s coloring, watching a movie, or playing a game, remind her that when her friend arrives, they\u2019re going to do her favorite activity. This gives the sitter and your child something to focus on after your departure.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li><strong> Always Say Good-Bye and Don\u2019t Linger<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>With both babies and toddlers, it\u2019s important to say good-bye when it\u2019s time for you to leave. Sneaking out of the house gives the impression that something\u2019s wrong. Even if you\u2019re anticipating tears or a tantrum, your child needs to know that you\u2019re leaving and you\u2019ll come back. Disappearing acts can make little ones feel fearful and confused. Plus, your child might start assuming you\u2019re sneaking out of the house every time you check the mail! Saying good-bye builds trust, even though it can be tough on both of you. It\u2019s also important for you to be confident as you exit. Give a big hug! Share some love! And try not to look back. It can be more of a challenge for your child <em>and<\/em> the babysitter if you show hesitation or linger when you\u2019re trying to leave.<\/p>\n<p>Helping children build a relationship with a new caretaker is a healthy part of growing up, and teaches them people outside of their family circle can love and care for them, too.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Hiring a nanny or babysitter for the first time is a big deal for parents.
