My name is Schaunagh, it's been difficult for me to gain work as a babysitter due to my age (15) however I babysit within my family and for my mum's clients. I have gained experience through living in a childminder setting, my mum works as a childminder and I often help out in order to gain knowledge of caring for young children. I am mature as well as being in touch with youth, this gives me an advantage of being fun and approachable; I find this to be useful when babysitting because it allows me to develop a close relationship with the child which I am caring for. I can work all evenings of the week and I am available for late night work on Fridays and Saturdays if you are in need if a night out. I can also work on major holidays such as Bonfire night and Christmas.
In comparison with other babysitters locally, my asking rate per hour is affordable to most parents. As long as the money I receive covers my travel fare with some extra to spare then I am happy to work with your family, I currently need the extra money as I'm saving up for a laptop for my college and university work.
