About Me
***Looking for an ad-hoc babysitter!***
We are based in Crick and moved here in August 23, when we discovered we were expecting our son, Ewan. We are both working professionals, where I am a researcher in the emergency services and my partner works in the private sector. I mainly work from home with occasional travel, and my partner mainly works in London and travels abroad alot for work.
Our family:
Our son, Ewan is 1 and we are expecting another baby in April 2026 meaning a 2 year age gap. We have two maincoons and a cocker spaniel. We are strict on no pets being left with Ewan unattended. Must be an animal lover and happy to also do pet care when babysitting/nannying i.e feed the animals and let the dog out for toileting.
We like spending our weekends in our garden or out and about making memories with him.
Ewan:
Ewan is a fantastic eater due to baby led weaning and he sleeps from 7-6 every night and has done since he was 8 weeks old. We do gentle parenting (not to be confused with passive parenting!) and intend to raise Ewan with a sense of responsibility. When older he will be doing age appropriate chores towards pocket money, and learning manners. We are also passionate about teaching him about bodily autonomy and consent, and being kind to others.
We have very limited screen time in our house and at no point is Ewan allowed any devices and TV is used as a last resort. We encourage independent play.
During maternity leave he went to baby sensory, baby massage, baby yoga and active bears. On a Tuesday he now goes to a baby swimming class. Wednesday to Friday he is at nursery from 8-1800.
Our expectations:
We are looking for a professional baby sitter/nanny who is available on an ad-hoc basis. We have no village to help so this person will fill that gap. You must love animals! Ewan currently naps from 1100-1300 and bed from 1900-0600 and when Ewan is asleep we would expect you to do light house keeping and pet care, i.e emptying the dishwasher, folding laundry, feeding the pets etc. Cleanliness and attention to detail is vital. If babysitting during the day, we would encourage you to go out with Ewan as he loves the outdoors. We will of course cover expenses!
Ideally you will be available on an ad-hoc basis for when we need help or attending child-free events or need time to ourselves.
DBS is essential as well as credentials in childcare.
My Requirements
We are looking for an ad-hoc babysitter for childfree events and occasions where Ewan’s can’t go to nursery for whatever reason or we are both travelling for work. This may occasionally be a last minute request-sometimes asked a day before it is needed.
When babysitting, we want his care to be the main priority. However, when he is napping, we would welcome light housekeeping to be conducted. We also encourage the person caring for Ewan to take him out and about, as we certainly wouldn’t want him stuck indoors all day.
