Description: |
HOW DOES IT WORK? Basically the co-op works by gathering a group of Mueller parents together who trade time watching each other's kid(s). We use our own co-op currency, aka, Baio Bucks, to keep track of time spent babysitting. We ask that when requesting a babysitter from another parent to always be explicit if you are asking for babysitting or just a simple play date. Babysitting, in general, is a formal request for another parent to watch the kids while the parent(s) go out.
MUELLER CO-OP GUIDELINES:
1. Babysitting Bucks: Members agree to have 1/2 hour babysitting bucks. Each family receives 10 bucks per child-i.e. five hours per kid.A 15 minute late window is allowed before another 1/2 hour is charged.
2. Location/Time: The person asking for the sitter is responsible for making clear the desired location of babysitting; at child's home, at sitter's home or whatever works best for the sitter. The person asking for the sitter also should be clear about duration of sitting.
3. Expectations: All members are expected to provide behavior guidelines, emergency numbers, etc., with babysitting parent.
4. NO: 'No' is always an acceptable answer to babysitting requests- no excuses ever need to be offered. Requests can be sent to the group in general via e-mail or can be by phone.
5. Goodwill reigns.
The babysitting co-op is also a great resource for all things kid. We like to play and party together and are currently planning some social events in the fall.
HOW TO GET STARTED: If you are interested or have any questions, please e-mail Jenna Martin, at jennafernmartin@gmail.com. Please include a brief bio about you and your family. |
