Mothers Help Job in Beckenham
About Me
We are a new family with a 4 month old son in S London and limited local support. We are seeking help 3-4 hours at a time, 2-3 days per week starting as soon as possible. We are flexible as to what times in the day. We are not looking for overnight care.
Please be aware that we also have small friendly dog (corgi) but no responsibilities for her are part of this role.
My Requirements
Looking for help at home while one or both parents are home providing extra support for 3-4 hours a few times a week, either watching after the baby (playing, doing tummy time, encouraging naps or giving an occasional bottle when necessary if mum needs to take some much needed rest); or doing light housework (putting baby clothes away, organising nursery things).
Mother is exclusively breast feeding or feeding expressed breast milk, baby is about 4 months old. We have previously had help from out of town grandparents but they have returned home, so we are looking for extra support as we try and transition back to being on our own and paternity leave comes to an end.
Please include in your reply a little about you/your services, your availability and your rate.

Seda started working for our family in mid February 2026 to support us with nights with our newborn. We hired her to provide support while I navigated breastfeeding nights with my first baby, her support was invaluable in this. She is a lovely kind person and I really felt she cared about our son; she took great care of him so I could get much needed sleep between feedings, handling all changing and settling of the baby. We had originally planned on a few nights a week for three weeks, then to taper down, but Seda was such a wonderful support we extended her as long as she was available.
Seda supported me in learning how to be more confident bathing our son, helped me with positioning for easier feeding and reassured me as the various sleep regressions happened. Throughout she was really warm and lovely to spend time with when up during the early morning hours. She is really knowledgeable and helpful and a very kind person. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for support after having a baby. I wish we could have her around longer she would be a great help to any new mums.
