How to Diaper a Baby

If you are babysitting and the baby starts crying, check his or her diaper. If the diaper is dirty or wet, the baby needs to be changed. To begin, get a fresh diaper and find the baby wipes. Next, remove the diaper and clean the baby with as many wipes as you need. Lastly, put on the fresh diaper. Make sure it is latched correctly and the mission is complete.
