This may include, but not limited to, excessive spitting up, irregular bowel movements, crying during particular situations, how best they fall asleep, etc. * Exactly how you would prefer the baby sitter to clean and wipe your baby. For example you may have a certain technique that the baby is more comfortable with, prefer to only use particular types of wipes, spread on certain ointments for the baby, etc. * How your baby is most easily calmed, whether by rocking the baby, specific sounds, etc. * How your baby's favorite way to sleep is. * Where the baby's extra clothing is stored in case the baby needs changing. * How to give your baby it's bottle, whether it is expressed milk or supplement. * Your policy on have visitors in your home besides the sitter.
