About Me
We are a family of 4, with a six year old boy and a three year old girl. They are happy, healthy kids who enjoy all the normal things like playing in the garden and in playgrounds, lego, drawing and craft, and den making. My husband and I work 4/5 days a week, mostly remotely. We live a few minutes drive from the school that the kids are at.
My Requirements
We are looking for a babysitter/nanny to provide afterschool care (from 3pm) for our 3 year old girl, and from 4.30 for our 6 year year old boy. This would preferably involve picking them each up from School, and looking after them either at our house which is 5 minutes by car from the school, or by taking them to the local playground, for example. So timing's-wise, childcare from 3 to 5pm.

Charlie looked after my 6 and 3 year old after school a couple of days a week. Our two children had a lovely time - Charlie would support them to play in the garden, have messy play, indoor play, drawing and colouring, jump around on the trampoline and take them to the local playground. Charlie is super reliable, she never let us down in terms of pulling out of looking after the kids at the last minute. She was also really easy to communicate with, and would send photo updates of what the kids were getting up to. My two were really well looked after and enjoyed their time at Charlie's house. We use the school wraparound now because my little one is old enough for that and it's more convenient for us in terms of pickup, but wouldn't hesitate to ask Charlie to take again if and when there is no school wraparound.
