Feeding babysitters

[sara76]

When your babysitter comes over during dinner time do you provide meals? I consistently either make a big lasagna or order them a pizza. I need something new. Neither of my sitters have allergies and they both say they like "anything".

Pizza is our go to as well. I might order basic Chinese on occasion. Fried rice sweet and sour chicken

JESUS. You have to feed the babysitters, too? PBJ and Veggie Straws!

Just kidding. I'm kidding. My mom never allowed me to babysit when I was growing up, so I have no idea.

Mexican food? You could do one off the Old El Paso Burrito kits or something. Enchiladas (probably quicker than the lasagna.

Lol yes you have to feed them too. . Mine usually comes 4-7 so that's snack in the middle of dinner. I like the lasagna bc I can put it together the day before and pop it in the oven before I leave. I could do that with enchiladas too, good idea! S

When I babysat as a teenager, the mom told me to help myself. She never ordered me pizza or made me a meal.

Me too. They were like "hotdogs in fridge and macaroni and cheese in the pantry if you feel like eating". And I was a lot cheaper than these damn kids. Lol

When I babysat, I don't ever remember being fed.

I have never fed Lila's sitters either but she generally goes to their house because our dogs are super annoying. We have a handful of people in our neighborhood who we trust.... Over my mother ;p

You're supposed to feed babysitters? I'm with Chelsea, I don't remember being fed either.
