I owe chuchem a thank you.
Made good use of his idea taking a family trip but still devoting a period of time for just my wife and me.

We left our daughter in hotel with a babysitter, went out for lunch and jet skiing, those few hours were the highlight of the trip.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Someone you knew or a hotel babysitter?
I just can't imagine leaving my child with a complete stranger.

The ideal way to travel is to bring along a babysitter you know. #jj1000.

Hotel babysitter.
My wife shmoozed with her for a while so she would be comfortable leaving.

I wonder if jj would like to join our next trip...

And what happens when they realize they can make $5MM instead of the $7/hour the hotel is paying them?
Or a kidnapper doesn't know how to shmooze?

Am I alone in this thinking?

Maybe my opinion doesn't count since I don't have kids, but if I got to know the sitter, I might trust him/her. The reason being that unlike jewelry, a kid is not "oiver lasoicher" - there's no easy way to cash out a kidnapped kid. And since I don't look or dress like the type to have $5M, I doubt they'll think they can get it from me. And finally, the hotel a) presumably screens/background-checks employees to a degree, and b) has all their personal info on file, making it extremely difficult to commit an untraceable crime.

Exactly. 5mm+ is good for a jj1000 sitter.

I would quicker leave my kid a week with my mom then leave my kid for 2 hrs with a hotel stranger.

That's another story, but still you don't usually know locals, etc.

Children, you are way, way off topic here. Do we need a thread for babysitters? There you can argue this out and maybe post recommendations if you would like so you know who to trust?

Seems like a good idea to me..

Nope I stand my point. This should be about Seminars, not babysitting. Different topics.
