We love the entire gang over at the TODAY show. Matt, Meredith, Al, Ann, Natalie — such fun to watch in the mornings! And let’s not forget Hoda, Kathie Lee, Amy Robach, Jenna Wolf and Lester Holt. They’ve got quite at team over there at NBC.

But the TODAY show just posed an interesting question. Out of that whole group, which one do you think would make the best babysitter?

The Anchors Sound Off

Before you choose, take a look at this hilarious video where the anchors themselves sound off about which of their co-workers they would choose — or which they wouldn’t! — and why.

What Others Say

We know Ann tends to bungee jump off bridges and zip-line through jungles, but we still think she’d be great. And Matt? Well, he’d have the kids so Purell’d and clean that you might not even recognize them.

Who are we kidding? This is tough!

Here’s a quick look at how others are responding…

“Ann for sure. If she can handle altitude sickness and still pull off her upbeat attitude, kids should be NO PROBLEM!!! :)”
KendallJaye Collard

“Definitely Matt! He would keep my son active and neat and clean too - my type of babysitter!”
SaraGT, Massachusetts

“Meredith and Al would bring the fun, Ann would comfort a skinned knee or kiss a bonked head… and if Matt were around, there would be no need for Ann because I envision he would make sure everyone was super safe, neat and tidy… injuries avoided!”
Kristin W; Aurora, OR

“I would let Meredith watch my kids in a heartbeat! She is kinda of zany and silly and I think she would be great with my equally zany and silly kids.”
Noreen Novak, CT

“No question, Matt Lauer would be my choice. Any time I’ve seen him do a segment about children he is totally absorbed and in to it. Safety, caring, sharing. Matt all the way.”
Christine Nokomis, FL

“Ann and Kathie Lee to babysit my darling knucklehead grandchildren!”
Sonia Wilson, Brooklyn, NY

Your Turn!

So, who would you choose and why?
