About Me

Hi! We are looking for experienced neurodiversity experienced childcare, mainly for our 9 year old daughter. Both she and our 12 year old son are currently out of school. Hours and responsibilities are flexible with appropriate hourly pay for the right person. We have a lot of fun but there can be outbursts that we roll with in a low demand way. If you fancy helping two amazing but occasionally complex children please get in touch!

My Requirements

Registered Childminder
After School Nanny
Special Needs Experience
Household Help

Mostly this involves being silly and chatting about music (detailed knowledge of O Rod a benefit), Wicked, Roblox, and bouncing on the trampoline with trips swimming and to the park etc. Our 12 year old is obsessed with Minecraft so knowing about that helps as well. Requirements are being fun and sometimes being a calm presence in the storm.

I am very tempted not to leave a review as it means Kirsty will be less likely to work for us again, but anyway. Kirsty is fantastic. She is extremely organised and competent. She immediately found out what our children (4 and 7) liked and planned a range of activities around them, which they really enjoyed. She formed an immediate rapport. She had a great balance between being gentle and motivating them to get on with things. I felt the children were completely safe with her. She was always on time and very professional, and needed very little input from us. We would all highly recommend her.
