About Me
I live in central Stratford upon Avon with my daughter (15) and son (12).
My Requirements
Flexible Family Support Needed – Stratford-upon-Avon
Local, ad-hoc help needed with childcare, light household support & lifts
Hi, I have two amazing children – a daughter (15) and a son (12) – in Stratford-upon-Avon. I’m looking for some flexible, local support to help life run more smoothly and give me the occasional space to recharge, or get to work meetings.
I don't need a full-time nanny (and not looking for a cleaner) — but some extra support from one (or multiple) people who can step in when needed, get to know us, and help in a few key areas would make a huge difference to us.
What I’m looking for:
Ad-hoc childcare, mostly for my son (12), so I can nip out for a meeting, grab a coffee, or run errands without needing to bring him along. This might look like just being around the house whilst he games with friends - it doesn't necessarily mean doing something with him or needing to fill the time.
Occasional evening or overnight babysitting, ideally once every 4-6 weeks probably just to stay at home here with my son.
Maybe lifts for my daughter to get to horse riding or meet up with friends. A clean driving licence and access to a car would be a big bonus.
Helping prep a few snacks or basic meals if you enjoy that kind of thing.
Even if just one or some of these things is applicable to you - please do get in touch.
About our family:
My son has made huge strides recently in overcoming strong separation anxiety. He’s now much more independent and even heads into town on his bike or stays with a trusted friend. I want to build on this so that his confidence (and therefore fun!) grows.
My daughter is very self-sufficient, but needs a trusted, safe adult around to be a base if I need to be away.
Both children are very active and love things like horse riding (my daughter), cycling (both), animals and meeting up with friends.
We have two cats!
It's really helpful if you have strong emotional intelligence or experience around children with anxiety or sensitive situations (basically SEN), but it’s not essential.

Asmae was able to help me out on very short notice recently. She took the time to come and meet my son the day before so that he'd feel comfortable with her the next day.
Great communication, on time and pro-actively wanted to help with other jobs around the house which was unexpected but I was grateful for. Asmae kept me up-to-date throughout the day and was very understanding of my son's needs.
I felt very comfortable leaving him with her and wouldn't hesitate to book Asmae again, or recommend her to others.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a real pleasure meeting your son and spending the day with him. I’m so glad he felt comfortable, and I really appreciate your trust in me. I’m always happy to help wherever I can, and it means a lot to know you felt supported. I’d be delighted to help again anytime.
