Hi, welcome to our YouTube channel called You're Doing It All Wrong. Today we will be teaching you how to not take care of children. Contrary to the popular belief, baby sitting is not sitting on a baby. Okay, so first of all, children need attention all the time. One of the biggest distractors in the lives of most teenagers, especially in this. Say you lose a bite. See, because we get so involved in our everyday life, like our social media accounts, that we can't focus on the children. Children need to be played with. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Kasey? Mad? You're here too? Yeah, I gave the kids a peanut butter last week. I didn't know they were allergic to it. How are you supposed to know? I am Professor Kirby. I am Professor Barryman. We will be showing you the tips and tricks of baby sitting. So the first thing you need to know about baby sitting is that it is unlike any other occupation out there, because it is ensuring the safety of the child you are tasked to watch. It is not collecting data or making a spreadsheet. Good baby sitters are nurturing. In the case study of teenage babysitting in the United States, author Nizomi Kawada defines the essence of nurturance as the ability to predict the infant's needs and to learn what kind of behavior should be adopted in order to satisfy its needs. Now good baby sitting now, that in order to be nurturing, you have to know the child. Things like what they like to do, what they are allergic to, stuff like that. Which means that you have to, well, ow! Ask questions. Always be prepared for the worst case scenario. Get both parents' phone numbers as well as emergency contacts before they leave. That way, in case of any emergency, you know how to be able to get their contact. The next step is to get all the child's medical information. Ask if they have any allergies or if they need any medication that they need to take while they are under your care. This helps you prevent yourself from unintentionally harming them. Finally, ask what the child's love to do. It's better safe to ask them sorry. Ask if they can go outside, play certain games with you, even film a TikTok. Our second point is to be attentive to the child and the environment around you. One of the biggest distractions in our society today is the cell phone. That couple with the ignorant believes that nothing back could ever happen to you is one of the most dangerous things to babysitting teenagers. Bad people do still exist and they will stop at nothing to try and get your child. It's important to know and practice the safety rules for each house and you should give no information to phone callers, even when you think you know the person you're talking to. Because it only takes seconds for somebody's life to change forever. Finally, interact with the child. In the child and in cycle PD companion, Thomas Bydell states that play is a child's work. As a babysitter, you and the child will get along much better if they know they can trust you. If the weather is nice, take them outside. If not, always travel with a bag of fun. Bring a bag of stuff that includes games, puzzles, snacks and more. After that, you can even have picnics, ports, you can do slime, tea parties and just have fun. Because your job is unlike anybody else's out there. Any questions? No, I'm good. Anna and I are good aren't we Anna? Oh no. Thanks for watching. I'm Maddie Kirby. And I'm Casey Berryman.
