[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't even try. For all you know they don't even want you to-- family babysitting can come with a lot of pros and cons. If you want to level things out a little bit, offer them a weekend of babysitting so that they can have a little vacation. But that would not happen until the baby is older. [/quote] +1 They may not even want you to, and even if they did- surely they understand that the distance would make it difficult. I’d just let them know you are willing to cover a weekend sometime if they want (if you are willing). [/quote] Agree with this. My parents are a similar distance and we didn't want them to be our FT childcare (they would have been happy to) for various reasons. Out relationship is better this way. They do babysit and help out ad hoc [/quote]
