We often cover stories of babysiters who do less-than-responsible things, like leave the kids in their care alone or give them alcohol or other unsavory stuff. So it seems only right--and a welcome break--to report on a babysitter who definitely deserves a medal and a raise, as well as unrestricted access to the contents of the fridge.

So what did this girl do that makes her such a star? She fought off a would-be kidnapper who tried to snatch the three-year-old girl in her care. When the babysitter opened her screen door to Normando Zamora Ramirez, he tried to grab the toddler. The babysitter fought back, and as he dragged them from the apartment, a neighbor heard the scuffle and restrained the guy, who was arrested on suspicion of attempted kidnapping, false imprisonment, burglary and child abuse. So if anyone needs someone to watch the kids on date night, you can probably engage her services and go out with a little peace of mind.
