About Me
I'm a single parent to my son who is 9. I became his mum in January 2022. Being an adopted child my son has trauma in his background and body, but no diagnoses other than hypervigilance and attachment disorder. He presents with ADHD and probably some PDA attributes too. He is brilliant with sitters who share my gentle PACE style approach and just wants to play! He loves anything with wheels, water and movement.
My Requirements
I need regular Sunday morning cover, ad hoc child care in school holidays.

Leonor stepped in when my son wasn't able to be full time at school. He has complex needs but warmed to Leonor's calm and fun style, and every time I returned home after a few hours to a happy, regulated and well looked after child. I had no problems asking for help for regular lunchtimes and afternoons several times a week, no concerns leaving him even when he was tired and grumpy and my son looked forward to being with Leonor.

Thank you so much for your lovely review. Your son is a treasure to look after and we always have fun together.
Annika helped when my 8 year was unable to attend school time as well as regular weekends sitting. She is the first person outside of the family that I've been able to leave him with for a significant time and return to him regulated, calm and having had a lovely time. Annika continues to sit regularly and I never worry about leaving while my son is 'having a moment' cos she knows how to make him feel safe, and my son adores and respects her!
