Job details: Casual Babysitting

$35 per hour

Hello lovely babysitters!

We are a couple in Leichhardt looking for a casual babysitter that we can welcome into our home. We have a sweet, sensitive natured 4 year old boy and looking for someone who will be able to connect with him and look after him causally, thinking maybe one evening a month.

We haven't used babysitters before as our family have stepped in here and there, and as a baby, he was always very attached to us and ambivalent to go to new people. However, now that he is 4.5 years old and getting a little older, my partner and I would love to get out a little and enjoy the occasional date night, or night out with friends. We are thinking maybe once a month for 3 hours, and happy to make it a regular night (unless something urgent comes up for us or you) and possibly other random nights here and there. Happy to pay up to $35 an hour.

He's a very gentle, warm and happy kiddo but takes a while to warm upto new people, so we are thinking it might be an idea to have one or two playdates first (paid of course) where you could get to know him and us and our family before having an evening solo with him.

Please apply if you are interested. Would prefer someone with lots of experience working with 4-5 year olds. Would love parent references and a WWC check.

Thanks so much :)
