We decided to collect some of the confessions from the women who have lived this nightmare and boy, they did not hold back and revealed all the secrets.
8 Women Reveal Their Most Cringeworthy Babysitting Secrets
#1 Justine*, 24
"I'm a nanny for a family that owns a medical marijuana dispensary. One night, my bosses came home hella late and hella high. They lit up a blunt while writing out my paycheck and we ended up smoking the whole thing, then discussing how Donald Trump resembles different childhood cartoon characters for an hour."

"When I was babysitting a little 3-year-old back in September, I left the room for maybe two minutes, and when I came back, there was poop all over the carpet! GROSS! I was disgusted! Not really sure how this happened but I had the kid and carpet cleaned by the time the parents were home!"

"I had been babysitting for a young, professional married couple for a few years and they always seemed a little strange to me. One night, as the parents were leaving for supper, the dad pulled me aside and mentioned that they had a 'massive porn collection' on their family computer and that I was more than welcome to watch what I wanted in the home theater after I put the kids to bed. Horrified and uncomfortable, I mentioned it to the mother the next time she asked me to watch her kids. Her response: 'Oh, I knew about that. We were hoping it could open the door to some fun with you.' Needless to say I haven't watched their kids since."

"One time while babysitting, the little girl (5 years old) asked me for a juice box. While in the kitchen, I heard her giggling in the other room ... I came out of the kitchen and found that she had placed the 2-year-old little boy in the toilet and was trying to flush him. He thought it was hilarious; I had a mini heart attack."

"One time when I was 13, I was babysitting this six-year-old kid who kept on telling me he loved me and he wanted to marry me. He would grab my legs and cling to me and not let go. For a while it was cute, until this one night when I was putting him to bed. This particular night he had been especially clingy toward me, and even though he was 6, I was very uncomfortable. While I was reading him his bedtime story, he quickly moved and kissed me right on the lips! I immediately stood up and scolded him. So, on a technicality, my first kiss was when I was 13, with a 6-year-old. I never babysat for them again."
#6 Caitlin, 26
"I was babysitting two little girls. One of them got mad that I was playing with the other one and chased me around the house with a knife. She cut the phone line when I was calling the police and was stabbing the door of the room I locked her sister and I in. It was like a scene out of a horror film."

"I once was babysitting a 6-year-old boy and he asked me if I would take my clothes off and dance for him because that's what 'Daddy always does with the other ladies.' And when I asked him if Mommy knew about this he said, 'No! Don't tell!'"
#8 Nadine*, 21
"I was babysitting overnight for this super-nice couple that really needed a date night. Once their two kids were tucked in and asleep, I called my boyfriend to pass the time while I cleaned up. Well, things got a little naughty, and we ended up sexting and having phone sex. In the middle of my climax, the 2-year old comes to the door looking for his mommy."
