Setting Passwords for preventing Internet access

I need help setting up a password to prevent the
babysitter from accessing computer or internet while they
are in my home. We have told her not to and she still
is. Please help me figure a way to access the computer
(mainly internet)only with a password. Thank you!!

You cannot trust this person to obey your instructions
regarding the use of your computer, so why in the name
of Saint Francis Patrick Albert Sinatra do you trust her
with the precious, irreplaceable life of a child?

Hugh,
I really like your answer.
