[quote=Anonymous]OP here, thank you for the replies! Just to clarify, my neighbor’s conflict that came up was non-essential (volunteer luncheon that she got late word on). If it was a medical issue or something where she truly needed help, I’d babysit without question. But this is a choice to do the luncheon instead of our zoo plans and not make her own childcare arrangements. Yes, the zoo outing is just a half day morning thing, but my child naps after lunch and so I don’t have flexibility to babysit in the morning and go to the zoo with my kid in the afternoon. I also know her child doesn’t nap, so if I hosted the play date I’d likely be watching her kid as well while my own naps. Anyway, appreciate the support and suggestions. It’s hard to know how to navigate these things sometimes. I don’t want to be a bad neighbor but I also don’t want to be a doormat and become resentful. [/quote]
