Hi, I’m a solo mum of twin 6-year-old boys based in Beaumaris. I’m looking for some regular help with after-school pick-ups from Camberwell Primary School and bringing the boys home to Beaumaris, ideally a couple of afternoons each week during the school term.

Rate is negotiable depending on experience. Please get in touch if this sounds like it might suit you — I’d love to have a chat.
