Babysitting vs Nannying

Reviewed

Thought a babysitting job didn’t need background checks.
Whether it is a day or a month or a year. I expect a nanny, babysitter or childminder to want to have more care as I was trusting an individual with my child but you thought you didn’t have to show that.
Very unprofessional tone, wouldn’t recommend.

In response to this very unfair review ( even though this parent closed their account immediately after writing this) I had explained that there was a possibility that my passport would arrive and I would be unable to do this small babysitting job which in fact is exactly what happened! I had also explained that I was in the middle of updating my DBS check. I offered to meet this mother for a coffee with the child also to see if we liked each other but she didn't want to do that. I was doing other childcare jobs also at the time as well as caring for my elderly mother for many hours so I had explained that I had limited time to complete paperwork in the next couple of days before the date she needed help. Actually I was doing my best to help this person out as nobody seemed to want to do this job.
