If you go, make sure you give a responsible friend their address and phone number. And maybe check in with your friend every hour. Did you call the woman on her phone yet?

I know I sound paranoid but just because the only other times I have met via cl were for long term positions.

Meet in a public place sometime this weekend. If she seems like a nut bail.

Why would any of this seem odd to you? It seems perfectly normal.

This woman wants me to babysit her 19 month old on Monday for about 4 hrs. She emailed saying that she has a 6 yr old too, but that kid will be going with her. I asked for her # so we could talk over the phone. She gave it to me. Does anything about this sound sketch? I just don't want to walk into a bad situation.

TIA
