Be Aware with Your Helper or Babysitter!!

I just received an email from my sister with the video attach. It is about a helper that abused the baby. When I received this email and watched the video, I was very shock! I don't know what happened with the helper then. It is explained that the mother had returned her and sent her picture so that other mothers will be aware with this helper.
Now I become more thankful because I have been raising Norman by myself. I know that not all helper will be like that. But this can be a warning for us as mothers to be more careful and aware with our helper. Actually, if we can raise our baby without a helper, that can be much better. Every time I see Norman's pictures, especially when he was only 1 month old, I already missed it. I miss when I had to swing for him, when he slept along the way while me and my husband were going somewhere, fed him, his sound of crying (the way he cries now is different), and a lot more. I am following his growth carefully, therefore I can see his progressive growing. Now Norman begins to talk. He can ask verbally what he wants or what he doesn't want. He can calling someone by name or uncle if he doesn't know that person's name. As you know, he is a very friendly boy. Maybe because I'm staying in campus so people in the campus can easily take him. Anyway, I am very enjoying these times, to become a mother.
