[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I babysat a lot in college and I would have happily done kids’ laundry if there was downtime like during naptime or if I was there in the evening after the kids went to bed. I tended to babysit kids under 2, so I wouldn’t have felt comfortable leaving an awake kid to do laundry, but for older and more self-sufficient kids, I’m sure it would have been fine. I would have also washed sheets and towels. Washing the parents” clothing would have been over the line for me. But the other stuff wouldn’t have been a big ask at all. Of course, I was a responsible and self-sufficient young adult who actually knew how to do laundry. But I suppose given the number of kids at my school who couldn’t (a women’s college even), you can’t assume they actually know how to do laundry.[/quote] I was happier not doing kids laundry. That’s not a babysitters job. And certainly in all the years I babysat, no one ever asked. Nor would I ask our babysitter now. [/quote]
