I’m here to help out, keep things fun, and make sure your kids are safe and happy! ?

Hi, I’m Penny!

I’m nearly seventeen and currently studying for my A-Levels (English Lit, Politics and Film). I have experience with children from nursery age to Year 2 through volunteering at my former primary school. I absolutely love spending time with children, and I believe that being a teenager gives me a unique advantage in connecting with them.

My mum was a childminder, and being older than the kids she cared for, I often helped out. This definitely built the foundations for my passion towards caring for children.

I’m outgoing, friendly, and always aim to treat young people with respect and dignity. I believe that building trust and mutual understanding is key to working well with children, and being close in age allows me to relate to them in a natural way. I also have very universal interests - like video games - which often become a shared topic of conversation!

I currently have a part-time job at McDonald’s, where I interact with children and families every day. This role has strengthened my communication skills, time management, and ability to stay calm and efficient in busy environments.

I live on the outskirts of Plymouth, but traveling around the city is no issue. As I’m currently in school and also working part-time, I am available at specific times. I can work evenings on Mondays and Tuesdays, as well as Saturdays and occasionally Wednesdays. Depending on the week, this may change, but Mondays and Tuesdays will always be free.

I’m hopeless at maths, but I’d consider myself to be skilled in English as I’m studying it as an A-Level and have hopes to continue it in university. With this knowledge I can help out with homework or any other literature-based activity. I also have no issue with small meals or snacks.

Overall, I really enjoy spending time with kids, whether that’s playing games, tidying up, or just keeping them company. Babysitting is something I take seriously, but I also like to make it fun and relaxed for everyone involved. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, I’d be more than happy to chat or answer any questions! ?

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Sitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a pet sitter to ensure your furry family members are safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

1. Check Experience

Ask how long they’ve been pet sitting and what types of pets they’ve cared for. Experience with your specific type or breed is a big plus.

2. Verify Credentials

Look for pet CPR/first aid certification, pet care training, or memberships in professional pet-sitting associations.

3. Ask for References

Speak with past clients to confirm reliability, trustworthiness, and quality of care.

4. Meet in Person

Schedule a meet-and-greet to see how your pet reacts to the sitter and ensure a comfortable connection.

5. Discuss Duties Clearly

Define whether they’ll walk, feed, administer medication, groom, or provide other services. Be specific about expectations.

6. Check Availability

Ensure the sitter can meet your schedule, including holidays, weekends, or overnight needs.

7. Understand Rates & Payment

Clarify fees, overtime charges, and any additional costs (like travel, supplies, or emergency care).

8. Review Emergency Plans

Ask how they handle medical issues, accidents, or other emergencies, including access to your vet.

9. Communication Style

Confirm how often and in what form they’ll provide updates—texts, photos, or reports.

10. Start with a Trial

Consider a short test visit or day before leaving for an extended period to see how your pet responds and assess the sitter’s reliability.
