Things to Have in House for 7 Month Old?

I might be starting to babysit a 7 month old 6 days a week. I'm thinking I'll need a jumparoo, and highchair, and I have a playpen and baby gate. Anything else I'll need? The mom will provide all diapers and food.

Exersaucer, engaging baby toys, baby spoons, bibs, burp cloths, and teethers.
I'd ask the Mom about having some meds on hand like Mylicon, Tylenol, or Oragel.

Pack n play, exesaucer, play mat, soft books, toys, car seat, space saver high chair, stroller. Try to make a weekly menu so mom can see what baby eats. Ask mom to bring change of clothes, pamper, bibs, saline drops, tylenol, thermometer, babys favorite stuffed animal, blanket.

ask mom to have diaper rash cream too.
I would get the booster feeding seat instead of a high chair. They take up less space, you can put it on the chair when you need it and put it away when you don't. Much better, I found out with my second child.
