Tell her parents..she's their responsibility.



Phone her parents right away! A high fever is very dangerous and it's not your responsibility to call 911 unless you feel her life is in danger and it's hard to know as you can't even get her temperature. She doesn't sound all that sick if she is running around though... I would definitely call her parents.



Phone her parents and ask them at the end of the day you're the babysitter you need to contact her parents.
