Answer 5

Tell the parents, and ask if they mind you having a nap.

If they say no then tell them your too tired to come over.

drink an energy drink or coffee. Relax on the sofa and let the kids talk to you and nod your head. I woudn't reccomend sleeping on the job.

Answer 8

Try to have a sleep before you're due to go & have a shower before you go over.

Good Luck. X :-)

Answer 9

if youve already committed to babysitting then it wouldnt b right to cancel...

maybe take a shower to wake up a little bit...

cause it wouldnt b right to not babysit because youre tired..

Answer 10

depends how old the child is, if they're young, i'd ring to say you cannot babysit as young children need your full attention or anything could happen. otherwise, you'll just have to try your hardest and then go to sleep once they're in bed :)

Answer 11

make sure kids are off properly and nap on the couch, im sure the parents won't mind

Answer 12

Thats a toughie! Bacause when you are VERY tired people seem to get an attitude (at least I do). I have babysitted my little brother when SUPER tired, and had an attitude and I felt bad. But you dont want to let your babysitting parents down, so that is why it is hard. But remember, if u do babysit, that kids have an egnormous efect on their adult life from how they were treated, the relationships, and the interactions they had when they were little.
