Babysitter Sends Mom Photo, She Calls Authorities When She Sees It
A Long Flight
It had been hours of worry and panic, but the plane finally landed, and she could switch on her phone again. The distinct beep she’s been waiting to hear finally came through as a small preview of an image flashed onto her screen.
At first, she didn’t think much of it- she was just happy that she got a response- but then she looked again, and the sight knotted her stomach. What she had seen in the picture was enough to triple the panic she’d felt for all the hours she was on the plane.
Ups And Downs Of Having Kids
Every parent knows how crucial it is to find the right babysitter. It has to be someone capable who can be trusted. But parents also know that there is a lot of stress when last-minute plans pop up or fall through because their go-to sitters could end up being unavailable.
It’s usually a very stressful time that no one enjoys, especially not when their plans can’t get cancelled. Single mom Claudia Sorhaindo luckily never experienced that, but that changed on one very important day.
Getting Promoted
It all started with Claudia getting a job promotion. It was an amazing opportunity that would help her grow in her career and allow her to give her daughter, Ava, a better future.
Claudia was looking forward to all her new position had to offer but she didn’t know they would be starting so soon. She got a phone call and the information she received instantly had her in a panic.
Finding A Babysitter
Being a single parent wasn’t easy, but it got even harder when she found out that she’d not only have to fly out but that she’d have to spend the entire weekend away from home. She’d have to leave her baby girl back- something she had never done before.
She tried calling all her usual babysitters, but luck wasn’t on her side. All of her go to sitters were busy so she tried the family members she trusted most. She had no luck until her phone beeped again.
No Other Choice
The message she received from her sister had her frowning at the phone. It said, “J’Ann says she can do it,” but that was not what Claudia wanted to hear. Her niece was only 15 years old, and she had certain habits that Claudia wasn’t very fond of.
J’Ann might have been an option for a few hours one evening but the idea of her watching the baby for an entire weekend had Claudia’s stomach in knots. She glanced over at her itinerary. She didn’t have much of a choice, did she?
