30yo, mother of two, looking for weekend or occasional evening work
Hi there, I'm Kaycee, Mum of 2, wife and small business owner. There's a running joke amongst friends that I'm Mary Poppins with other peoples children! My 2 daughters are now 8 and 5, both in school and therefore I have a little more freedom for myself. Currently we are trying to save money for an extended trip home to Nz. It's been over 2 years since we saw anyone in person and with the Travel bubble opening soon I would love to get there for an extended trip.

I have years of child minding experience, going way back to helping with younger cousins as a kid. At 14 I landed my first real babysitting job with a beautiful family that iw ent on to work with for 6 years! including many trips working as their full time nanny.
Since having my own children I have often babysat in my spare time, purely because I really enjoy it! I am "aunty" to many of my friends kids and enjoy spending time with kids of all ages.
I understand that sometimes affording a babysitter can be hard, so if you're experiencing any financial difficulties, but really want a much deserved night out, touch base and we'll see what we can do :)
I also have experience working with individuals with mild disabilities.
Note: Fees are negotiated according to various factors including weekday/weekend, daytime/evening, number of children, age range of children, one-off/regular booking, last minute

What parents love about me
Being a parent myself I have first hand insight into parenting life, the struggles and the joys. I can relate to kids of all ages, am firm but fair and fun.
What kids love about me
I'm not afraid to be silly but also provide clear guidelines around expected behaviors and what is and isn't allowed (according to both your rules and mine).
What I love about this work
There is nothing quite like the knowlegdge that you've just helped a kid learn, or do, something new. I also love being able to provide parents with an affordable solution to get some "me" or "us" time. It's really important to have that time available.
