Lele’s Babysitting Service

Spills can be cleaned.
Broken toys can be replaced.
Walls can be repainted.

But harsh words spoken in anger can live in a child’s heart for years.

The mess on the floor is temporary.
The way you make your child feel about themselves can last a lifetime.

Children will forget the spilled juice.
They may never forget being called “too much,” “bad,” or “a problem.”

Correct the behavior without crushing the child.
Discipline the action without destroying their identity.

A child who feels safe will learn.
A child who feels shamed will hide.

Your words become their inner voice.
Choose them carefully.
