About Me
My wife Aileen and I are parents to lovely twin boys (Nate and Eddie, aged 4) and baby Benji (1 year).
We enjoy doing different activities with the boys and watching them grow. Each is at an exciting stage of life - seeing their love for fun and rapid development is rewarding and brings us lots of joy! That said, being outnumbered, we also recognise that we do occasionally need a break as we don’t have any local family
My Requirements
Occasional babysitting for evenings on ad-hoc basis. We typically stay from 1700-1900 and then head out once the boys are settled

Reviews I've Written

Colin had previously babysat our twin boys and hadn’t seen them for a while as we got used to going out less following the arrival of our youngest boy.
Despite this, our elder boys immediately felt comfortable with him and began babbling about ‘Colin’ despite the fact they weren’t even verbal last time he met them. This is a testament to how relaxed he makes children feel
Our youngest baby isn’t as used to strangers, but Colin doesn’t let that phase him and remains a calm and relaxing presence
I would highly recommend Colin to parents needing a night off from the kids!

Thank you for another lovely review. I enjoy coming to look after the boys.
Colin babysat our 8 month old twin boys one Friday evening, when we had our first night out sans kids in months.
He has a gentle, calming approach which I really appreciate (doesn’t overexcite them), and it was clear the boys felt very comfortable with him. The boys are mobile and too young to listen, so managing them was no mean feat!
In addition to looking after them while they played, Colin also changed and bottle-fed them, and put the boys to bed. He also let us know how the boys were doing as the night went on, which was really great.
This was the first time Colin had looked after our children, but he took such wonderful care of them that we’re already planning our next outing!
