About Me
I'm an actress, writer, and singer who works freelance. I'm originally from the states, but I've been living in Edinburgh for 8 years. My son is four years old and has lots of energy and is overall a happy wee boy. Both my husband and I work FT and travel quite a bit so it's much easier to have someone steady in place for pick-up/drop-offs and possibly more hours during school holidays.
My Requirements
I'm looking for a childminder/babysitter for after-school care from Mon to Thur for pick up from the Duddingston area. Willing to pay slightly more because of the short hours. Also willing to add mornings before school - please contact me if you have availability.

My son has been going to Amanda's for a few months now, and it's the highlight of his week. He attends with one of his best friends, and he loves all the adventures they go on; from parks to museums, soft plays - so so many places. My son is super active as well, and she manages to keep him stimulated and we never have to argue about heading to her home on Wednesdays and Thursdays. She gives loads of photos and an hourly report of their full day - so you know the exact times they ate, went to the loo, and the toys they played with throughout the day. I'm so happy we found her and always love hearing about the fun adventures that my son has with her every week.
