Babysitter with Special Needs Experience Job in Wisbech
About Me
I am a recently single mum of 6.
3 teenagers and 3 young ones.
I have no friends or family for support. Very capable of managing myself but could really do with a babysitter for occasional appointments.
My Requirements
*Urgently needed for upcoming appointments*
Babysitter for 2 year old and 4 year old plus some teenagers floating around who don't need babysitting.
*11th August 10am to 7pm, possibly later.*
Will need some settling in sessions with me at home to get to know the children before the appointments.
I am in need of someone to get to know my younger children and be available for prescheduled appointments that would be easier for me to attend without the 3 younger ones. Nothing short notice unless that's an option in which case that would be amazing but at the moment I'm just looking for someone I can schedule weeks or months in advance. I would like to use the same person each time so my children feel comfortable with a familiar person.
It would be 1 to 3 teenagers depending on whether or not any are at their dad's, none need actual babysitting, they're very independent and well behaved, they just need an adult present in case of emergency.
I also have 3 younger children with a different dad who unfortunately have no contact with their dad and I have nobody else to help with them.
My 2 year old girl who is pretty easy going. She's never been left with anyone other than older siblings and has recently become a little anxious but I imagine she'll be absolutely fine once she's spent a bit of time with someone.
My 4 year old boy is autistic with some learning difficulties. He has some communication difficulties, it can be hard to understand what he's saying sometimes. He needs very close supervision as he lacks danger awareness. Safety wise he needs to be treated as a 1 year old, not left with toys labelled 3+, restrained at all times in public etc. He is very well behaved and a lovely boy. He is very sociable and will not have a problem being left with someone new.
My 7 year old boy is extremely high needs but I don't imagine being able to leave him with a babysitter any time soon. He will be the one most appointments are for so won't require a babysitter. I'll need a babysitter for the younger 2 and adult presence for any teenagers at home. There's no way I can take the 2 younger ones with me and it is extremely important that I can take my 7 year old to these appointments.
I need someone who has SEN experience. Ideally autism and learning difficulties experience. Must be DBS checked. We are in Upwell.
