Hi,
We are looking for a babysitter for after school pickups Monday-Thursday, including taking the kids to and from activities on some days.
We live in Surrey Hills and have 3 kids, going into grades 2, 4 and year 7. Babysitting will be primarily for our primary school aged boys, who do basketball and swimming, and we’re also looking for the evening meal to be prepared (and served to the kids if needed, depending on the time) - these won’t be gourmet and we’ll leave instructions!

If this sounds of interest to you, please get in touch, I’d be happy to have a chat and answer any questions.
Thanks very much,
