Welcome message:

Hi, I am Katy! I am 25 years old and a happy and social person. I have wanted to work with children for many years and was previously part of a Brownie troupe that helped me learn more about children. As a child I went to a child minder and spent lots of time around other children, this is when I realised I enjoyed interacting with younger children. As a teen I babysat local children while I was doing my GCSEs, one of which was in child development.

My passions are cooking/baking and outdoor sports, both of which I would be able to teach and encourage within your children. I am a very organised person who loves halloween and christmas, I would be able to plan themed activities for your children.

I have 2 cats, which I have had for 2 years, they are a brother and sister who are just over 2, called Tinkerbell and Toothless.

I would love to hear from you.

I have completed a masters of science in food consumer marketing and product development and a bsc in Food Marketing Management. I am looking to expand my career possibilities as I love working with kids, but was encouraged to follow my passion for food. I volunteered with children at a brownies troupe for over a year and massively enjoyed this, I would have continued if it was not due to a house move, due to this I have had a DBS check, however it will be specific to the brownie organisation. Like many people, as a teenager I was a baby sitter for local children, this was supported by my GCSE in Child development.

I am a very organised person so your home would be kept neat and tidy.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Wedding Babysitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a wedding babysitter to make sure the little guests are happy and the adults can celebrate stress-free.

1. Hire early

Secure babysitters well in advance, as weddings often fall on busy weekends.

2. Check experience

Choose sitters with proven childcare experience, ideally with multiple children and event settings.

3. Run background checks

Verify references, qualifications, and certifications (like CPR and first aid). See our guides for more information:

4. Ask about ratios

Make sure there are enough sitters for the number and ages of children attending. You may need to hire multiple wedding babysitters.

5. Clarify duties

Define whether babysitters are supervising during the ceremony, reception, or in a separate childcare room.

6. Provide entertainment

Ensure babysitters bring or can organize age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities.

7. Discuss meals

Plan ahead for kid-friendly food and snacks that babysitters can easily serve.

8. Set boundaries

Decide on locations where kids will stay (kids’ corner, separate room, outdoor space) and communicate rules.

9. Plan for bedtime

If the reception runs late, arrange a quiet area or sleeping setup for younger children.

10. Keep parents informed

Make sure babysitters have contact numbers and a system for reaching parents quickly if needed.
