Dress to Impress ~ What to Wear on the Job

 Hi Blogspot(:

 Okay, so I have gotten asked what I wear on the job before... pretty simple. Just keep it clean, keep it modest, and keep it casual.

 Clothing
         
 Do's:
      No bullets necessary here, folks. Just keep it modest, and make sure you dress in something that is not only appropriate, but you would feel comfortable running around and/or playing in.

Don'ts:
  •   Teeny shorts
  • Low-cut shirts or tanks
  • See-through tops (unless it is paired with a camisole or undershirt underneath)
  • Clothing with inappropriate words or comments
  • Skirts and dresses (they just aren't good for play, or anything else you may do on the job)
Make sure it is not inappropriate, and that you would feel comfortable if anybody saw you wearing it. You shouldn't even have to question it if it is for a babysitting job.


  Accessories and Jewelry
 
 If you want to wear accessories, you are probably out of luck, unless little studs for earrings is what you have in mind. I wouldn't recommend necklaces and bracelets, as they are easy to lose and babies and small kids are very, very interested in grabbing them. The same goes for dangly earrings.

  Don'ts:
  •  Necklaces or chokers
  • bracelets or anklets
  • most earrings
  • facial piercings
  • hair extensions

  Shoes

  Your new strappy sandals would be so tempting, I know. But most flip-flops and other summery or slip-on shoes will not cut it at a babysitting job. I don't care if you can run in them without falling on your face. Tennis shoes would make you not only more steady on your feet, but comfortable. So, I would say Converse sneakers and tennis shoes, again, are your best bet right now.

 Don'ts:
  • Sandals
  • Flip Flops
  • Toms
  • Any sort of heels (why would you even think about it?!)
  • Anythig that you think is not suitable for running in and is uncomfortable
 In the wintertime, you most likely won't be heading outside unless it is to play in the snow, so I would say Uggs and sweater boots are okay, then, as long as you know whether or not you need to bring snow boots if you are heading out in the backyard to try out the new sled.





 How was this post? Let me know in the comments if I forgot or should edit something(: Also remember to comment any sort of question you may have, and I'll create a post just for you!

 Thanks!
