My Requirements

Babysitter
After School Nanny

Hi all :) We are looking for someone who wants to be part of our family. It’s a small number of hours during the week but there are also half terms, inset days etc where we would also need that extra help.

What we are looking for is someone who can help us with some chores around the house (tidy up girls’ books, toys, clothes), laundry folding/pick up and healthy meals prep for the girls. We are looking for someone who is genuinely passionate about cooking and who is happy to help around the house. It is very important for us that this person enjoys being around the kids and has initiative to keep them happy and entertained.

We are looking for someone who speaks Spanish or Italian.

The longer we stay with this person and the more comfortable the girls grow, there will be further opportunities to spend more time as part of daily family activities :)

Thank you and look forward to finding the girls a new friend!

Unfortunately I was contacted by Denise saying she could be a 'good fit' for our family.

After a 2 week trial we welcomed you into our home. You met our children, learned their routines, their personalities, their needs. You accepted the job, committed to us, and we trusted you.

The two things I emphasised the most when I met you: PLEASE honesty and transparency.

Once the trial was over and you were supposed to officially start with us came the excuses — last‑minute cancellations, week‑long disappearances, delayed replies, stories that never added up. And finally, silence.

You didn’t just waste our time. You hurt our children who had opened their hearts to you.

Caring for kids is not a casual hobby. It’s a responsibility that shapes their sense of safety and trust.

We now have to rebuild that trust — because of your choices.

Please rethink your path. This work is not for you.

Response by Avatar for Denise Denise on 30/06/2026:

I’m genuinely sorry that the situation ended the way it did and I understand your disappointment. However, I feel it’s important to clarify that the cancellations and communication issues were not due to a lack of commitment or dishonesty.

During that period I developed a severe case of laryngitis after working in extreme weather conditions, which forced me to stay home, and I then suffered a relapse the following week. Shortly afterwards, my phone was stolen, leaving me without a way to communicate properly or access the information I needed to get to your home. These were unexpected circumstances, not excuses.

I apologised for the inconvenience because I recognise the impact it had on your family, but I don’t believe it is fair to describe me as dishonest or imply that I intentionally disappeared. I truly enjoyed meeting your children and I regret that things unfolded this way. I wish your family all the best.
