Babysitter Job In Hereford

About Me
My 12 year old child and I live in Hereford close to Bishop's school. We're both very friendly, creative and probably a bit quirky too ?
My child is autistic and takes a while to warm up to new people, so ideally we're looking for someone who is happy doing their own thing and who can wait until they are comfortable enough to come to you! They are experimenting with gender, so open-mindedness is important. I would like a babysitter to explore ways of building a good trusting relationship, and to be able to gently hold boundaries around bedtimes.
My Requirements
I'm seeking one or more regular or ad-hoc weekend/evening babysitters to help with the following:
- some Friday/Saturday evenings (6-12pm) and the occasional overnight (6pm Sat-11am Sun)
- usually one afternoon a weekend (12-4pm)
- the occasional weekday evening (7-11pm)
It would be amazing if you are Ofsted registered so I can claim some childcare costs back, but my main priority is to have a few kind and reliable sitters to call on. Thanks for looking!

Melanie is such a warm, kind and reliable babysitter, and it is a real relief for me to know I can leave everything in her capable hands while I'm out. She has been patiently building a solid foundation of trust with my 12 year old autistic child, to the point where they can now go out together. Melanie is supportive and accepting when my child needs to retreat, and she'll quite happily take care of household tasks in the meantime - a real gift for a single mum! I would highly recommend her services.
