    Default How do you cam with kids

    There was a little family emergency in my boyfriends family. So to make a long story short my boyfriend and his sister went away and I am watching her kids while shes gone. She has 3 kids (7months, 3yrs, and 5yrs). Today was the first day I watched them and it was hard! I think they are gonna be gone 3 or 4 more days. I need to work tomorrow but I have no idea how to work with kids. When I said yes to watching them I figured I would just cam after they went to sleep..but like I am so tired after chasing them around all day and feeding them and diapers and keeping them with something to do and making sure they don't kill themselves . I feel like I am so drained and I can barely stay awake now..let alone work. So yeah how the hell do you cam with kids..because right now it seems impossible!!

    I don't think I could cam with three kids at those ages, especially the small one who needs a lot of care. I don't see how you can except maybe 20 minutes here and there at nap time, but then with three of them one or more could wake up at any time so I really don't see how you'll do it.

    Sorry hottie, but that is a tough one to answer. When my kids were that age they was HYPER, loud, and was just a huge handful. My kids are now over the age of 12, and they play games, watch spongebob marathons, and more games. When I cam, I check on them periodically, but they do not bother me when I work.

    Kids under 5 have to be looked after all day long, until you wear them out! If I were in your situation, I think I would be up very early with them, the earlier the better. Most kids that age wake up between 6am and 8am, normally. I would play with them outside, in the house, and hopefully tire them out by early evening.

    Maybe they will be so tired from having fun all day, that they will be knocked out by 8pm. Then you could at least either take a short nap to be alert for a late cam shift, or you can start camming around 8 or 9. But that's if you can get them to sleep.
    Taking a break from all unproductive shit will prove to be the best choice you can make.

    what they said!

    i love my nieces and nephews and i love babysitting them, but after several hours of that i physically CANNOT do anything else. and if they're staying overnight for awhile it's even more stressful because even if you COULD stay awake the little ones like to wake up in the middle of the night. just take it as an enforced vacay (unless you are super stressed about finances). are there any friends or other family members who could come over to help out during the day? or anyone you can do play dates with? that might take some of the stress off of you so you won't be as exhausted after they're in bed.

    Only when they sleep, and have no sound on in the background. I agree with the others that with those age differences, it's going to be hard to get them all asleep at the same time. Good luck! :/

    I too would suggest waiting until your sis and brother in law get back home.

    Two things...one, I was able to cam with kiddo at that age, but as she is mine and I knew her habits, sleep schedule, personality, quirks and nuances 100%, then I knew without doubt when it was safe to, or not safe to cam... Shes a very heavy sleeper, but shed have her moments when she would be restless and get up all hours of the night for more water. I knew her well enough to realize as putting her to bed whether it would be one of those nights or not.

    Another thing, kids...especially at that age, are incredibly perceptive. Sneaky lil whatnots too! Dont underestimate what they may see, hear or even perceive.

    I just dont feel its a risk worth taking...its one thing if its your own kids and youve developed a groove for working around their sleep schedules and such (even getting that going at first is very hard and takes awhile to do and feel comfortable with) but another when its someone elses kids. Id just think long and hard about it...it would really suck to have one of them wake up to use the bathroom, overhear something, and tell their parents all about it...and the position that puts you in...it would be an awful feeling to have exposed them to something they really dont need to be exposed to.

    At those ages, you don't. At least not when they are awake!

    thanks blk...i wasn't gonna work with sound or anything but i think its better i just wait. and omg i agree they are sneaky little devils!! last night the 5 year old painted her nails...mind you my nail polish was in the cabinet under the sink in the bathroom and in a case. how she found it and painted her nails AND toes in like under the 2 minutes she was in the bathroom is beyond me.

    anyway i think its better for me not to cam and be exhausted while watching them. i think they are a little stressed out with being away from home..and i don't wanna add to it by being zombie babysitter lol.
