Hi, I’m looking for a reliable babysitter for occasional after-school care for my two kids, aged 6 and 9. The role would typically involve picking them up from the local school, helping with a snack, a bit of homework, and keeping them calm and engaged until I’m home around 6:30–7:00 PM. Flexible days, with at least 24 hours’ notice when possible. It’s important that the person is patient, enjoys activities with kids, and has a recent DBS/Disclosure check or is willing to obtain one. We have a small family-friendly environment with lots of board games and crafts. Please share your availability, hourly rate, and any experience you have with younger children.
