They don’t do very much to prepare new mothers in child care. This is when your mother (grandmother) becomes indispensable.

When she was in the hospital, they never told my daughter that you give the baby a bath every day. Three days later when I arrived she had to learn how to do this in a safe manner. My granddaughter is now 16 years old. She survived it all very well.

She’ll only burp good if you have your best clothes on.

I had a baby brother when I was 12. That’s another way to pick up a few tips. And then I ended up getting babysitting jobs with babies later on because, well, I could. 🙂 What a great one-liner! 🙂
