Duties 1-3 Year old little
As a caretaker of a 1 -3 year old little you duties and responsibilities are more so than most. More for all the little jobs, and less for how hard they really are.
Here is a list, not necessarily in order of importance. These an vary from relationship to relationship.
1. Diaper checks/changes. These are mandatory. Checks should happen every ½ hour to 1 hour. Just putting a diaper on your abdl isn’t going to satisfy them. Checking them tells them you accept them and are thinking about what is going on. It brings about regular interactions. recommended sticking you finger inside to feel. Why it invades a space of theirs that they arn’t used to. a reminder of just how vulnerable they are.
2. Make their food. give them 2 options. then make it, cut it up, then make a big deal about it. If you feel inclined feed it to them. Do not under any circumstances give them formula though. Formula can actually hurt adults. Baby food is acceptable. When they are done, make sure to clean up after them.
3. Bath. Bathing your little is essential. It is a very bonding exercise. I personally recommend that every couple should bath one another. Take your time. wash them down thoroughly. Make sure to coo them and play with them during this exercise. If you want to, get some bath toys, and bubble bath. Bath time is fun time.
4. Rule enforcement. As the cg/dd/md you need to set up rules. These are mandatory. no ifs/ands/or buts about it. Every couple should have different rules. Some to think about are things like, mandatory baby talk, No taking diaper off, No walking, keep pacifier in your mouth, ect… Once these rules are put down you need to set up disciplines with them. Best to write down everything as well. Start out small with corner time, ignored for x amount of time. The last rule and one you should rarely use is to end it. That punishment should be the last resort. Once these are set; don’t let them break them with out discipline. Consistency is key here.
5. Bottle or Sippy cups regularly. As the cg you are in charge of looking after the well being of your little/abdl. This includes their liquid intake At least once a day you need to bottle feed or sippy cup feed your little. This should be done while holding them. Again it tells them you care, It is good cuddle time for bonding, as well as it reinforces who is in charge. This also means that they have to use their diaper regularly.
6. Moderate electronic time. Any good parent knows that to much electronic time is bad for their kids. So moderate how much they are getting. If they refuse to comply then you need to unplug what they are doing. Again reinforces who is in charge.
7. Make decisions for them. There is a lot that fits into this category. Everything from their clothing to what time they go to bed. these all need to be moderated. as a little/abdl. There are many more things that could go into this category. the point is limit them down. If you are going to give them a choice, give them 2.
8. Make a schedule. This isn’t mandatory, and really helps more with lifestyle than anything. Anything that is going to be more than 4 hours, i would recomend making a schedule. It helps for you to know what to do, as well as let your little to know what to expect.
9. Activities. Will be doing a list of possible activities later. How ever for now you should be trying to do activities outside watching a movie with your little if you are doing this more than once a month. These allow you to break up the monotony of what is going on. These can either be in the community, or in the house itself. There are tons of them out there. So pick one that seems fun and appropriate.
Well that is all I have. If you have felt that I have left something out feel free to leave a comment or send me a message.
