There is nothing as cute as a baby. I always fall hard for them whether human or animal. Their sheer naivety and innocence is both a good and scary thing. No one could resist the urge to pick them up and smother them with kisses.But it is a nightmare when I have to calm them when they scream for their mothers. Those piercing screams that get louder whenever you try to shush them. If you want to stress someone let them baby sit your two faced baby. I have played a baby sitter to most of my cousin's kids since when I was about 9 years. Someone would think I would be better at this job but it just doesn't work like that. I was actually better during those years. Unless you get paid sums of money then I too would give it another try. Change the diapers, clean them up, coerce them to eat their food while running after them. Getting them to sleep is another energy-drenching task. My cousin loved to run around when he was four. I practically hard to pin him down till he cried to sleep. Oops. I hope you are not reading this blog😆.
So the point is I like helping my family out with the baby. But it is not something I like doing every time. Babysitting relieves the parents, giving them time to take care of other things. And it shouldn't be misused either. Some kids have suffered at the hands of evil nannies who assault them when the parents/guardians are not home. Parents just have to balance time at work and at home, to be safe and to make sure the babies are in good shape. Otherwise I don't want to play mum the whole week.
I may not be enthusiastic every time about taking kids but I still know you have to be patient. Don't let the kids bully you to backing down. Lol. The highly active kids are like wild tornadoes so I would understand if someone wanted to give up. Try to make it playful when it comes to bathing, Kids like colorful stuff so improve the food and make it fun! And naps yeah, play until they drop because of exhaustion but make sure they sleep on time.
A few more days of being around the baby and he will get used to your company. It gets easier with time. Or not!
