What should I know about hotel bookings?Updated a year ago

Here are some tips for when your booking is at a hotel.

Upon arrival, let the hotel reception know you'll be babysitting for the family.

It's a good idea to bring along something to read, as watching TV may not always be an option. Occasionally, there might be an adjoining room available for your use while the children are asleep.

For evening bookings, your responsibilities may include getting the children ready for bed, reading with dimmed lights, or watching TV quietly after they're asleep. As always, it's important to follow the parents' instruction and direction.

Hotel bookings can vary widely. They might include daycare and evening babysitting for events like weddings or parties, and sometimes they cater to families visiting from overseas. 

Day bookings may occasionally involve taking the children out and about. It's important to clearly understand the parents' expectations and feel confident in managing these outings safely.
