Would You Let Angelina Jolie Babysit?

The next Mary Poppins?

Choosing the right babysitter can be stressful, especially if it's the first time you're leaving your baby with a stranger, even if she is a mom. How about a celebrity mom? ParentDish recently wanted to know: If you had to choose a celebrity to watch your baby, who would you pick and why?

Jennifer Garner definitely. I see pictures of how she is with Violet. She gets down and dirty and actually PLAYS with her and she seems to truely enjoying being a mom.

I wouldn't allow Angelina anywhere near my child. Lord knows she'd probably try to steal my husband just as she did Jennifer Aniston's!

Angelina would probably pay one of her 8 nannies to watch my kids... sorry but I think she sucks as a mom!

Jennifer Garner for sure! She looks like a REAL mom, you know, not always so perfect! =)

Well, since I don't KNOW any of them, I wouldn't let any celebrity watch my kids. But I wouldn't turn them away based on what magazines think of them either.

I love Angie! She is so good with her youngsters. I think she is so great for rescuing the 3 babies that she has, and I wish to adopt at least one baby from a third world country (probably won't happen). I want more kids then she has! No one looks badly at the 17 and counting mom or other moms that use IVF. Lots of moms work, and acting is her job. Having a nanny is no worse than putting a child in day care. Its just more one on one. Some moms think moms that use day care are horrible parents. To each their own!
