Parentcasters, I need your help. I’m taking care of a 1.5 yr old baby girl at the end of a month. I have never taken care of a baby before by myself, what do I need to know?
My lived experience here only goes to 14 months but a good place to start is just to ask what her routine is - when does she need to eat (and what), when does she need to sleep (how to put her down), and look up how to change a diaper maybe haha
Can you spend any time w/ her between now and then? 1.5 is about when our girl went thru "stranger danger", and so if that's at all the case w/ this one but you can get in her good graces, things may go better w/ playtime, mealtime, naptime. If not I second @g3rard.eth's crayons idea + books + Raffi + anything novel.
