Cautions for Baby-Sitters!

Be sure you have important telephone numbers—where parents can be reached, police and fire departments, family doctor, and someone to contact in case of an emergency.

3

Know approximate time when the parents will return.

4

Learn what to do in an emergency.

Keep doors and windows locked. Completely close drapes or blinds at night.

6

Do not allow anyone to come into the house unless previous arrangements have been made by the parents.
