We are a family that lives in St Albans and are looking for a babysitter/nanny to help care for our children. We have two boys aged nearly 3, and 5, with limited family support. They are beautiful energetic little beings, very active and fun to be around. Our older boy is very sensitive and likely neurodiverse, and can struggle to be separate from us (his parents), and to regulate his emotions, which often shows up as jealousy towards his younger brother, which can be hard to manage at times.
We try to spend as much connected 1:1 time with each of them and together as a family, but often neglect domestic tasks and life admin, which is becoming a problem.
Our hope is to introduce a regular babysitter/nanny to them, who can build a trusting relationship, and get to know them, initially at home, to allow us to attend to other tasks/ chores, and in time, to go out with them.
They love being outdoors (we have a big garden) and we spend as much time in nature as we can- they love playgrounds and the skate park. We try to minimise screen time, and they enjoy books, puzzles, jigsaws, as well as bikes, scooters, trampolines etc.
We are hoping for a babysitter/ nanny on a Saturday or Sunday, every fortnight for 3-4 hours. We would love the odd evening out together, and next year our older boy starts school, and will likely need a babysitter/nanny to pick him up from school (local) and care for him between 3pm- 5pm a few days a week. So flexibility is a bonus.
If this sounds like a family you would be interested in working with, please get in touch.
We are flexible, reasonable people, and anything is negotiable for the right person.
