Question

For lunch, she likes ham and cheese (torn into bites), yogurt, raisins,

applesauce, peanut butter sandwiches in the fridge drawer, or any combo of these. She's not a huge eater. Help yourself too. Bread is on counter if you want to make a sandwich. It's fine if you want to go somewhere, leave us a note of where you are. Make sure she's buckled and drive carefully! Certain fast food places are fun if they have playgrounds and are indoors. It's probably too hot for the playground, but whatever you want to do is fine. Take a sippy cup of water and a diaper wherever you go. There's some money here for you in case you decide to go out for lunch with her. As for nap, try after lunch. She may not sleep, but try anyway. Read her a couple of books first, put cream on her mosquito bites (it's in the den on the buffet), then maybe rock in her chair. Give her a bottle of milk, and refill as needed, but don't let her drink more than 2 bottles of milk or she'll throw up. Turn on music in her room, leave her in crib with a dry diaper and bottle to try to sleep. She likes a stuffed animal too. Try for 30-45 minutes. You may have to start the tape again. If she won't sleep, that's fine. We just call it "rest time" on those days that naps won't happen.
To whom is this passage probably being written?
a. a mother
b. a father
c. a babysitter
d. a nurse

Answer 1

The passage is most likely written to a babysitter, as it provides detailed child care instructions typical for someone temporarily taking care of a child.

Step-by-step explanation:

The passage is most likely being written to a babysitter. It contains detailed instructions on how to care for a young child, including the child’s meal preferences, naptime routine, instructions for applying cream to mosquito bites, and activities like reading and playing. The nature and detail of this information suggest that it is intended for someone who is not regularly involved in the child's daily routine and would need guidance on how to care for the child, which aligns with the responsibilities of a babysitter.
