Eve

My Requirements

We are looking for an occasional babysitter to care for our two children so that my husband and I can enjoy the occasional evening or day out, knowing our children are in safe and capable hands. It’s important to us that the same person is available on a recurring basis so our children can build a sense of familiarity and trust with them.

Both of our children are autistic and have sensory needs, so we are looking for someone with experience in working with children with special educational needs. Ideally, the babysitter will be patient, understanding, and confident in supporting neurodivergent children.

Evening babysitting would take place at our home, where our children feel most comfortable and secure. For daytime babysitting, care would mostly be based at home, but we’re open to the babysitter taking the children out for suitable activities if appropriate.

(We’ve ticked a range of days and times to reflect when we might need occasional cover, rather than a set schedule. We don’t require babysitting on all of these days regularly. It would just be as and when needed, depending on plans. We're mainly looking for someone flexible and available for the occasional evening or daytime support.)
