Hi! My name is Cici and I’m 16 years old. I’m a high school student at St Mary’s College in Hobart, where I study Health Studies, Maths, Visual Arts, and more. I’m friendly, responsible, and love spending time with both kids and animals!

I’ve completed the Bronze Duke of Edinburgh’s Award in the UK, where I learned how to be a good team player, communicate well, and take responsibility. I’ve also worked as an assistant with a theatre company, which helped me build confidence and learn how to support others.

I enjoy playing with children, keeping them entertained, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I also love walking dogs, playing with pets, and making sure they get the attention and care they need.

I’m available after school and on weekends, and I would love the opportunity to help out with pet sitting or child minding. I’m caring, trustworthy, and always happy to help!

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Valentine's Day Babysitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a Valentine's Day babysitter so you can enjoy a romantic evening while knowing your kids are in safe hands.

1. Book early

Valentine’s Day is a high-demand night for babysitters, so secure someone well in advance.

2. Expect holiday rates

Babysitters often charge extra for special occasions, so budget for a premium.

3. Choose someone trusted

Go with a sitter your kids already know, or someone with strong references if it’s their first time.

4. Confirm late-night availability

Make sure the sitter is comfortable staying until your return, even if it’s late.

5. Share bedtime routines

Provide clear instructions for dinner, storytime, and bedtime so the evening runs smoothly.

6. Leave fun activities

Stock up on games, crafts, or a movie to keep the kids entertained while you’re out.

7. Plan a simple dinner for kids

Prepare or order something easy the babysitter can serve without stress.

8. Leave emergency contacts

Give them your number, backup contacts, and any medical details they might need.

9. Set house rules

Be clear on snacks, screen time, and bedtime flexibility.

10. Show appreciation

Since they’re working on a date night, consider a bonus, chocolates, or a thank-you note.

See our parents' guide to Valentine's Day babysitting for more detailed information.
