The Nanny Series: Part 2: Car Kit

Welcome back to The Nanny Series. Part 1 was about creating a nanny headquarters binder. Part 2 will be about keeping organized in the car. What you will need will vary a lot on the age of your child(ren). My children are going to be 11 and 6. They are independent but may still make messes and get some cuts and bruises. Having a car kit will help ease the stress of crazy times!

A staple in any car kit would be sunscreen, trash bags, and an umbrella.

I bought a few pencil pouches from the dollar store. Inside the pouch I have Neosporin and bandaids, hand sanitizer, lotion, and Advil. A travel kit of wipes should be in everyone's car kit. They help clean up messes and messy kids!

Find yourself an extra bag you have in the house and you are all set! If your kids are old enough, let them know where to find the bag in case you are driving when an incident occurs when you will need your car kit.

Other items you may want to add:
- toys/activities for longer car rides
- snacks
- books
- tissues
- Quarters for unexpected meter parking
