Alanna
Registered Childminder Job in West Linton
About Me
I am a very happy mom to our little boy (he will be a year in December). I am a solicitor in Edinburgh and will be going back to work full time in January 2027. My husband is an engineer. We both do a mixture of hybrid working patterns.
We are a very active and busy family, having just moved to Leadburn where we are currently building our family home!
My Requirements
We are looking for someone fun and active for our little boy to spend his days with! I will be going back to work full time from the middle of January 2027, so will need support Monday - Friday throughout the work day. My husband and I will both be doing some days from home each week, so can be flexible on whether late pick up is required or not. We currently have a full time place secured at a nursery, but we would prefer to use a childminder instead as we prefer the home environment and more familial experience. We can be flexible on doing a split of nursery and childminding if the dates don't work out.
Ideally, we would like someone who is keen to take our little one out for activities most days - he has very rarely seen a screen (other than facetiming with family) and we would love to keep him busy without them for as long as possible.
Our boy is very interested in nature (loves plants and animals - especially cows and bunnies). He is a very chill little guy, quite thoughtful at times and likes to take in his surroundings before jumping right in. He's very busy - always on the move (currently learning to walk) - and enjoys playing and singing. He also has a very good appetite (he could definitely keep a raspberry farmer in business!) and so far is happy eating the same thing for meals that we have as a family - lots of fresh fruit, vegetables and meats/fish.
