1. Going rate for babysitter? Any recommendations!

 I'm looking to hire a babysitter for my 14 month old
 twins. We're looking for someone a couple evenings a
 week plus some weekends. Ideally they'd be able to do
 meals but I'm mainly looking for someone who will watch
 and play with/read to them. Some organized,
 age-appropriate arts and crafts activities would be a
 bonus, but I'm ok with balancing that with free
 play.What is the going rate for a sitter like this?
 I'll likely be posting this job with the child
 development center at SF State, but if you could
 recommend other forums or actual sitters, I'd be really
 appreciative. Thanks!!

 The travel closet (travelcloset at sfpom.org) has Go Go
 Babyz wheelies you can borrow. You'll need zip ties or
 some straps with buckles, which REI carries. I'd
 recommend doing a couple dry runs at home. HTH.

 Your description sounds a lot like how our boys were at
 4 months. We read the "Healthy Sleep Habits, Healthy
 Twins" book for ideas and looked for cues when they
 were ready to sleep through the night. Our Ped told us
 we could drop the nighttime feeding around the same
 age/size as your kids but we kept it going for a while
 because they weren't eating so great and their meals
 were small. When we finally dropped the 2 a.m.
 feeding, they had small meals (2 oz) for a couple of
 nights and then we only soothed them. It seemed like
 it only took 4-5 nights before they just kept on
 sleeping. I don't think they were even hungry - they
 were just used to the routine.For us, things really
 improved after 4 months. Hope it gets easier for you
 very soon and that more sleep is around the corner. 
 BTW, you'll need it because in a few months they'll be
 crawling! Yikes!
