Need Mom Input for Babysitting Article

Calling all moms! Do you have any great tips for newbie parents on how to hire, instruct AND retain a quality babysitter? Any anecdotes about finding a fabulous babysitter (as in Mary Poppins), or do you have a nightmare babysitting experience to share (like the time you came home early and discovered your teeny-bopper babysitter spooning her crush on the couch while your toddler raided the pantry and ate an entire sleeve of Oreos)? If so, email me. I’m working on an article for Pregnancy magazine and need any mommy anecdotes, tips, etc. by October 29. Feel free to pass this inquiry along. Thanks!

Hi, I’m Kate

 

I'm the author of two nonfiction books Getting Past Perfect and Weightless, a storyteller*, overthinker, eating disorder survivor, mom of five, book junkie, socially awkward nerd as well as a speaker (so basically a walking and talking contradiction), and a perfectionist in recovery.

I am currently working towards my MFA in Fiction at Warren Wilson. Thank you to everyone who has read my drafts, offered feedback, and cheered me on. The writing life is often solitary, but I wouldn’t be here without a community of support.
