[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 340484, member: 3444"] I found our sitter through a teammate of difficult child 1's -- turns out it's the kid's older sister... well, she's only two years ahead of difficult child 1 in school, but she's lightyears ahead in maturity. I paid her $10 an hour for my 3 fairly-self-sufficient kids, two of which are difficult child's. She was there mainly to make sure they took their medications on time, didn't burn down the house, didn't kill eachother, and got to bed at a reasonable hour. Other sitters I've used I also found through friends or neighbors who had kids older than mine. But my favorite sitter is my mom because she's the ONLY one in the world who understands what's going on and doesn't pass judgement or lose her cool when the kids start pushing buttons. :) [/QUOTE]
