Hello,
I'm looking for a friendly, caring person to look after my two sons who are 3 and 5 years old.
During the week, I'm looking for someone to look after my 3-year-old either on a Tuesday or Thursday morning from 8am-12.30/1pm. Occasional casual evening babysitting.
On the weekend I'm pretty flexible and am looking for someone on a regular basis to work at least 4 hours, but the time may change (I'm happy to work it out between us as we go and give you as much notice as possible). I'm looking for either a Saturday or Sunday morning (9am-1pm) and the occasional Saturday evening instead of a morning.
About us:
I am a solo parent to my two little boys. The boys are friendly and funny and full of energy and love to play at home and also enjoy getting out to the playground (I have car seats you can put in your car).
My 5 year old is at school during the week. My 3 year old is currently seeing an OT for support for potential ASD. He is very clever, chatty and funny, but has trouble regulating his big feelings which can sometimes lead to meltdowns. We are continuing to work on strategies to support him, and I'd love a babysitter who is kind and patient, with an awareness of neurodivergence.
Your role:
playing with the boys (or just my 3 yr old)
making simple snacks, although I'll often prepare things/have things ready.
bedtime routine if babysitting during the evening
if you have a moment while the boys are occupied- unloading the dishwasher or picking up toys
We still have our lovely babysitter that we've had for a few years now, however I'm looking for someone else while they are unavailable for a few months, but with the intent of keeping you on long term.
We are located in Tweed Heads South.
