Babysitter, super experienced, available for ad-hoc evenings/weekends

Hi EDF parents,


I am looking for families who require adhoc babysitting from someone super trustworthy, fun and capable - for evenings and weekends only as I have a 9-5 job in central London.


I am in my 20s and very, very experienced with children of all ages, in lots of capacities. I've grown up immersed in Montessori environments, I've nannied for newborns, little ones, teens, twins, I've tutored, worked in various nurseries and schools, and taught piano privately. I am "firm but fair" - no pushover but great fun, and I always put building up a good relationship with your child/ren first.


I have a recent police check and live locally near Goose Green. In terms of references you should find quite a few testimonials for me on the forum if you click on my name, I can also give phone numbers too if you enquire.


Also I charge a bit less than what I understand to be the going rate for nanny-babysitters.


If interested send a PM!


Also just to reiterate- I am ONLY free for evening and weekend ad-hoc work. Not daytime babysitting, not piano teaching, not tutoring, not nannying. I am only putting this in as every time I post about babysitting I get lots of enquiries about all those other things.


Thanks!


Anna

Just thought I'd say that having just clicked on my name, half of my previous posts don't seem to be coming up & I get a 404 message when I try to search for them. I don't know why this is, but my testimonials seem to have disappeared - sorry I should have checked before posting that. References are of course available on request.

Apologies if I was not quite clear enough in my original post but I've had a number of hopeful enquiries which would suggest it wasn't: I can NOT be available for any kind of wraparound care or after-school pick ups! Strictly evening babysitting only during the week.


(Edited to add: I am more flexible with times on weekends)

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
