    Make this babysitter bucket with babysitting activities and must-have items.

    Babysitter bag filled with all the items the babysitter will need plus fun babysitting activities, games and treats!

    Hello friends! Spring is a crazy time of year, and I am typically gone from home a bit more than usual. I wanted to come up with some type of babysitting bag to make things simple and easy for the babysitters and more fun for my kids, and this babysitter bucket was the perfect solution!

    It has all the baby essentials my little ones need, and tons of babysitting activities to entertain the older kids! Definitely a win/win for everyone!

    Babysitter bucket filled with all the essentials a baby sitter will need to care for your kids, plus fun toys and games!

    I started with a large plastic bin, and I cut out the fun labels using my Cricut machine! 

    Parents Choice brand diapers and wipes are the best! Perfect for these babysitting bags!

    What goes in a babysitting kit?

    The next step is to decide what to put into your bucket! I wanted to start with the must have items first, and when you have a 7-month-old and a 3-year-old both in diapers it doesn't get more essential than diapers and wipes! I first tried the Parent's Choice brand diapers and wipes after Jude was born and I'm not gonna lie I have been so impressed with them! The quality of their new designs definitely meets or exceeds the quality I've seen in other national brands. They have improved breathability to keep babies skin clean and dry- and for babies like mine who have sensitive, rash prone skin they are a lifesaver! The wipes are amazing too! They are 99% plant-based materials and water, without sacrificing durability or function, and they are also great on sensitive skin. Oh and did I mention how affordable they are? If you haven't tried Parent's Choice brand diapers and wipes yet I highly recommend them!

    All the supplies you will need to make your own babysitter bucket! Tons of fun babysitting activities and needed supplies!

    In addition to diapers and wipes, Jude is loving baby food right now and eats it three times a day, so I knew I wanted to include some snacks too. My babysitters have already commented on how nice it is to have everything he needs right in one place, and it gives me peace of mind knowing that they aren't going to try to feed him anything that I didn't put in the bucket for him.

    I also threw in some fun snacks for my big kids, they love mini pretzels, and gum is a special treat because they aren't usually allowed to have it!

    I wanted some fun babysitting activities and games as well, so they have something fun to look forward too while I'm gone and don't end up staring at screens the whole time! I started out with Spoons, Tumbling Tower, Dry Erase Markers and whiteboards for Pictionary, Cra-Z-Art Softee Dough and paint supplies! I plan on switching things out of the bucket from time to time so they don't get bored and it stays fun and exciting!

    Babysitter bag stuffed full of fun babysitting activities and essential items!

    Here it all is tucked in the bucket! It will be fun to sneak some seasonal stuff in there too as the year goes on.

    So fun and easy right?! What would you put in your babysitting kit?

    xo,
