BABYSITTER- (bAy-B-sit-ter) A child's nightmare. In cartoons and books babysitters are qualified as bossy, uncaring, angry, and maybe even scary. Uh,uh. That is wrong. Maybe some sitters are mean and yell a lot, but those are the ones that haven't read this book. Super Sitters is a book that teaches a sitter to be helpful, caring, fun, and just about everything you can think of. It teaches simple first aid, what to ask the parents the first time you babysit for their kids, and what to do in case of an emergency. Not to mention a lot more stuff you wouldn't even think of. And the BEST part is... NONE OF IT IS JUNK! Everything is very useful so if you are a new sitter- Buy this book if you want to be successful. It has helped me to become a better sitter.

I read this book in 1971, just prior to my fiirst child's birth. I read many child psychology books prior to this one, but this one strcuk me as the most down to earth. Dr. Salk's approach made the most sense. I have recommended this book to every new mother that I have met. I am trying to buy more copies of this out of print book so I can give one to each of my children . My wife and I want to enjoy our grandchildren RJD .

This book was not phoenomenal but pretty close. If you was meyou would like this book from the start!!! It has cool stuff to dofor meal time, great ideas on how to get little ones to sleep, stuff on "I'm Bored!" So pretty much it's pretty high on my list. Thanks for taking my opinion bye!
