Hello,
I am a mum of 2 boys aged 6 and 8. I am looking for casual babysitting on the odd occasion that I need my kids to be looked after in the evenings during the week. This is my first time searching for someone to mind my children outside of family, so it is really important for me to find the perfect babysitter to understand my children's needs.
Just a little about my boys...
My 6 year old boy is very kind and affectionate and is usually very easy to get along and communicate with.
My 8 year old boy has recently been diagnosed with ADHD. There are moments where he may get worked up with minor things and we are all learning how to manage our new lifestyle with this, but deep down he is a caring and aware boy :)
The role for this job will include dinner time and bedtime routine mainly and you are welcome to entertain the boys with things they enjoy which is reading, lego and colouring in and whatever else they might feel like doing on the night.
Bedtime routine is usually easy. Once they brush their teeth and wear their pyjamas they will be in bed around 8.30-9.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.

I am looking for someone to help with the care of my 9 month old son, Harry. I am a solo mother and have recently returned to work 3 days per week. Harry is in childcare 4 days a week and I need someone to help with daycare pickups and afternoon/evening routine on the days I am working. The daycare is walking distance from my house. My hours can be quite variable and some days I may not be home until the evening. I also will need occasional help during the day (days may vary week to week), particularly if Harry is unwell and can't attend daycare. Harry does not attend daycare on Mondays so I am also looking for someone who can care for him for 3-4 hours on a Monday.
It would be great if I can find someone who can help with some general jobs in the house too etc. washing, cleaning, cooking for Harry.
I have 2 greyhounds at home too. They are very calm, quiet and friendly dogs. I live in a 2 storey house in Strathmore which is walking distance from the local shops and cafes on Napier St.
