She looks so innocent. You would totally leave your baby with her. I mean, she's babysitting for free. A hard opportunity to pass up. What could go wrong? Nothing, until you bring your baby back to Brooklyn and realize that he's grown accustomed to an entire different standard of living, one that involves him pointing and grunting at whatever strikes his fancy and you jumping up and giving it to him. Immediately. He points and grunts at a lamp, you turn it on. He does it again, you turn it off. And on. And off. And on, and on, and on. Don't refuse or react too slowly, or your formerly reasonable baby will take a turn for the inconsolable.
Beware: don't leave your baby with this Grandma for too long. Sure, you might see some movies, or eat dinner with someone who doesn't wear a bib, or reconnect with your husband. But eventually you will have to take your baby back. And you will pay a price much higher than $15/hour.
