About This Quote

The best baby-sitters, of course, are the baby’s grandparents. You feel completely comfortable entrusting your baby to them for long periods, which is why most grandparents flee to Florida. The reason is that you know you can trust your grandchild in their care. You know the person will make sure the baby is fed, has clean diapers and has all their needs met.

You can also share in their joy when they learn something new or grow in their independence. When you are old enough to be a child’s caretaker, you are old enough to have your own child.
