My credentials

I'm happy to provide written documentation of my qualifications and credentials:

  • 3 years experience working with children
  • General credentials:
    • 18 years old

I am a dedicated and bubbly person with a passion to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for children of all ages. I take my responsibilities seriously and parents can trust that their children are in capable hands. I also believe that babysitting isn’t just about supervision but also creating a fun and engaging experience for kids. My bubbly personality also helps me to connect easily with children. I also speak English and Romanian Fluently, as well as French at an Intermediate level. I have also just finished my A-levels in French, Psychology and Criminology. Criminology has helped me with Safety Awareness and Problem Solving skills, French has helped me with cultural exposure and Psychology is the perfect subject suitable for becoming a babysitter that has helped me with learning about Child Development Knowledge, Behaviour Management and Emotional support. Therefore, I’d be the perfect candidate with my studies and personality to start a career in babysitting.

I have had quite a lot of informal experience from raising my little brother, who is 5 years younger than me, to even neighbours’ kids. I have also taken part in some work experience that was needed for University, one of which was a program called Oppidan, which consists of helping year 7 students to flourish in school. I have developed many skills through this, such as increased confidence as well as being able to be patient, but have also been able to help them through this too. The two children that were assigned to me were incredible and so lovely, and I am so glad that I was able to help them to be more confident and help them with whatever they were struggling with, that made it just a bit harder to properly fit in and integrate in such a large secondary school. Also, because I have been growing up and surrounded by children like siblings and cousins, I genuinely love kids and love being around them.

My skills and interests:

  • Music
  • Reading/storytelling
  • Drawing/painting
  • Arts/crafts
  • Nature
  • Foreign languages

Jump to section:

Why hire a babysitter

In this section we look at what services babysitters typically provide, how they're different to other carers, and the many benefits your family can enjoy when hiring a babysitter.

When to hire a babysitter

Every family is different and so are the requirements for hiring a babysitter. In this section, we explore the many factors that can influence when, and how often, you choose to hire a babysitter so you can have a better idea of what may be best for your family.

How to find a good babysitter

Often the biggest challenge with hiring a babysitter is finding good candidates, to begin with. In this section, we reveal many secrets that you can use to attract the best local babysitters, we also explore alternatives to hiring babysitters that you may not have considered.

What makes a good babysitter

Finding a good babysitter is not an easy task, in this section, we highlight various qualities to look out for while you're gathering candidates for your open position. We also cover less commonly considered candidates such as male babysitters and answer commonly asked questions that parents have about them.

Babysitter interview tips

How you conduct your interview process is critical to identifying the most appropriate babysitter for your family. In this section, we run through a recommended babysitting interview format and provide tips and tricks that you can use to learn the most about your candidates. We also offer a huge list of good interview questions and how best to utilize them depending on your unique circumstances.

Babysitter pay

One of the most common questions parents have about babysitting is how much they should pay their sitter. In this section, we look at the many factors that influence babysitter pay including your geographic location, age and experience of the sitter, age and number of children, and specific job requirements.

How to vet babysitting candidates

Once you have a shortlist of the best babysitters you can find, the next step is to vet them further to make sure they are who they say they are and the skills and qualifications they claim to have are valid. Follow our guides on checking babysitter references and running background checks.

Babysitting job expectations
