Evening Babysitters at WL

[MHS]

Am making a trip in AUG with my sister and her family. We will have 4 kids in tow: 5, 4, 2 and 1 at the time of the trip. I know the kids clubs don't cover sub-4 from what I can tell. Any idea how to obtain a babysitter while at WL if we want to go to DTD? Thanks!

We used Kids Night Out about 6 weeks ago at FW Cabins after Grandma, who was supposed to watch them, flaked out at the (relatively) last minute. It was expensive - about $80 for 4 hours, that included an hourly fee and a transportation fee. I also noticed after she left that she rounded up an extra half an hour from the time we got home but that was my only beef with the experience and, well, if that made her happy to do so be it. The kids (4 & 16 months) enjoyed themselves. I rented a video and they colored from books she brought along with some other fun stuff. She fed them dinner (I made the dinner before I left) and she managed to get my younger one to sleep by himself which is a near miracle! Anyway, her name was Eva and she was a grandma-type. I would do it again and will next October or December as a splurge for DH and myself. My 4-year old is dying to do a kid's club but I just don't feel comfortable leaving only my younger alone with someone. HTH!
