she's generally responsible and cares about my dc, but she's not wonderful with the interaction/stimulation part. [ Reply | More ]

gotcha. for a lot of people responsible is the most important thing. so aomeone that has a new baby might consider her a good choice. anyway, i'd ask around. its nice for her and lets you know when she's leaving. and possbily control it. [ Reply | More ]
