A specific friend i would completely trust. I don't trust most of my family. I do trust my daycare but I don't think I'd trust many of the workers outside of the daycare

My mam and sister only

My kids haven’t been baby sat yet

Their nanny and dad only my family/ friends have never not once looked after my kids as they’re not able to talk as of yet and my family/ friends would need to be willing to do it in my house where my cameras are

My older child has been watched overnight once (birth of my second) and he was watched by my parents. Other than that he's been watched for very VERY brief periods of time a few hours on our anniversary by my parents, and once by my sister when my husband had norovirus and I had to pickup his medication and get some rest myself cause I was recovering from it as well. Hopefully in the next couple years he will have some fun grandparent dates. I trust my parents fully. My husband's grandparents also want to watch him but I don't trust them so I don't really let anyone on that side watch him 😬

Grandparents & our nanny!

I would only leave my kids with someone who has some sort of training or experience with kids with autism. Not even family because my kids are very hide needs. If it was only going to be like an hour and they were sleeping I might.

My parents!

@Zainab🗝️ mine either Lolol

my mom, my grandmother, my husband, his parents/sister

Just my mom. She has been left for short periods with my husband's mom but she's not really comfortable taking her for longer than that, which is fair. She also asks me so many questions it's one of those things where I might as well do it myself. Lol. With my own mom I actually get a true break. There's no one else I really trust enough, my husband's stepmom lost any chance she had while I was pregnant when she told me she "doesn't really believe" in safe sleep recommendations. 🙄

Loved hearing all your thoughts!!
