A couple of my friends are having babies in a few months and along with the gift basket I am putting together for them, I was thinking about making a couple coupons for each basket for a free night of baby sitting since the girls are 19 and can't always depend on their parents. Is this a good idea to help them out? I am very responsible with kids and have tons of little cousins (I am one of the oldest out of all my cousins, and theres a lot, lol) and I used to baby sit the kids in the neighbor hood all the time. Let me know what you think....thanks!Thanks so far everyone! I am glad you all think its a good idea. And yea, I know kids are CRAZY in their twos and threes, like i said I have a billion little cousions all of whom are very spolid and bratty and I survived them lol.

I would be THRILLED! They may not use them for quite a while (depending on their attachment level and if she's breastfeeding), but they may come in handy in a year.

Yeah I've done it before, but it comes back to haunt you later on. Make an experation date!!! haha Because when their kid is two and out of control they'll call you to baby sit...lolanswer mine?http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AjaTTB0FFeP.EZY7Uq2DnaDsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20080807105114AAvYliP

I am mom of a 7 weeks old, and I would so enjoy that! I think that this is a great idea. Don't put an experation date on it but also let them know that you need to know in advance. This coupon does not entitle them to call an hour before and they need to respect you. When they say it will be till 10pm they do not need to be getting home at 2 am! IF you understand what I mean. But i think it is wonderful!
