About Me

Hi! We’re a family of 4. Looking to meet someone/multiple people in order to have some help in regards to emergency care and potentially start a regular date night/over night stay for the future.

My Husband works in London and I am an SAHM. We do not have much support outside of the family and I need help in getting to appointments and such like for myself and/or the children.

We are a SEN family, being that our eldest Son is diagnosed autistic with speech delay & sensory needs. Our daughter is also awaiting diagnosis but more along the lines of ADHD and sensory needs.

Both children have proven to be very easygoing with sitters in the past, once the initial upset of their parents leaving has passed!

Preferably looking for someone with SEN experience but not wholly expected if it’s the right person for us. Am happy to discuss more about our family. Please get in touch if you’re interested …

Sami and Alex

Ana has been an exceptional babysitter for our two autistic children, one being more profound than the other. With her experience she approached every interaction with patience, understanding, and genuine care. Ana has taken the time to learn both our children’s basic routines, specific sensory/regulation needs together with varied communication styles. Our children have felt immediately comfortable with Ana, especially as it can take a while for strangers to be accepted, which means the world to us. She has been great to talk to, prompt with responding to messages as well as arriving to our house on time. She has kept things tidy in the home and is happy to do bath times, meal times when asked. Ana helps us to have date nights and we are working up to an eventual ‘overnight stay’ once our family is ready. We highly recommend Ana to any families looking for someone who truly understands a SEND family dynamic but also to any other families who want a genuinely lovely baby sitter!
