Samantha
Babysitter Job In Morpeth
About Me
In our family home is myself and my husband Matthew, our 2 boys, Jenson 3 and Tobyn 1. We also have 2 indoor cats, 2 geckos, an African land snail and a few fish.
We moved to Morpeth from Northamptonshire in 2023 to be closer to my husband's family. I'm originally from Cambridgeshire where my family are still based. This is part of the reason we find ourselves looking for occasional help with the children as we don't have loads of family in the area to lean on for the odd night off.
My Requirements
We are looking for someone who can do occasional babysitting to enable my husband and I to have the odd evening out together or attend events. We have previously relied on family for the very few times we've needed childcare, however illness means this is not as possible now. Tobyn our youngest son is much better at sleeping and going to bed now so we feel a bit more ready to find someone who can build up a relationship with both the boys over time and be a long term babysitter. We've never gone out loads so it won't be like every week, however we would very much like the opportunity to have a bit more time as a couple and build this up a bit more with the confidence of a stable sitter that the kids love.
We're mostly looking for mid-late afternoons I to evenings, so having a babysitter who can put the kids to bed too would be ideal, they go to bed really well.

Lisa was brilliant when communicating and arranging. She seemed really keen and understanding when she came to our home and met us all as a family, got on really well with the kids and was great asking details about anything they particularly like etc.
Then on the day of first actual job where we were due to go out and leave Lisa with the children she didn't show up with zero communication and nothing since.
