[quote=Anonymous]A neighbor who lives several houses down from me has asked, on more than one occasion, if she could babysit my 2 month old infant. She says things like "Next time you need a babysitter I'd be happy to do it for free so you can get out". The thing is, I'm not close to this lady and although she's nice my mama bear instincts is giving off an uncomfortable vibe and i don't know if I'm just being paranoid. She's in her 50's and might just not have grandkids around and wants the company of a baby? Has this happened to any of you parents out there? She's already asked 3 times this past month and I always tell her the same thing which is thank you but i'm not in need of a babysitter at the moment. Again, we're not close but I do chit chat with her if I'm passing by on the stroller or if she's passing by in a car while i'm outside. Just normal neighbor behavior. I want to come off polite but I want her to get the hint because it's starting to become uncomfortable.[/quote]
