How much do I charge for babysitting services?

My rates are competitive and reflective of my experience and the high-quality care I provide. Please get in touch for a personalised quote based on your specific needs and hours. You can reach me on 07842276570 or via email at sophiel2408@icloud.com .

Do I collect children from schools in Harlow?

Due to working in a primary school, I am not always available during collection times. However, sometimes due to after school care such as clubs, this can be arranged for one-off occasions. Please discuss your specific requirements with me when booking.

Do I make exceptions for different ages of children?

I am experienced with a wide range of age groups, from toddlers to pre-teens. While I generally cater to children aged 2 and above, I'm happy to discuss individual circumstances for younger children on a case-by-case basis to ensure I can provide the best possible care. Your child's safety and comfort are always my top priority.

What is your experience in childcare?

I have worked in various childcare settings, including school holiday clubs, and I volunteer as a Young Leader with different youth groups. I have been babysitting for two years and have a wealth of practical experience looking after children, including my eight younger siblings! Currently, I also work as an apprentice in a primary school, further enhancing my skills and understanding of child development and safety. I also hold an up-to-date DBS check.

Do I offer any deals or package options?

To thank my clients, I sometimes offer promotional deals throughout the year. You can find more information on my Facebook page: Sophie's Babysitting Services.

What makes your babysitting service a good choice for my children?

My extensive experience includes working in school holiday clubs, volunteering with youth groups, and two years of dedicated babysitting. I grew up helping to care for my eight younger siblings, giving me invaluable real-world experience. I also work as an apprentice in a primary school, ensuring I'm constantly learning and applying best practices in child development and care. I am fully DBS checked and committed to providing a safe, fun, and nurturing environment.

What are common concerns parents have, and how do you address them?

Parents often worry about safety, reliability, and their child's comfort with a new carer. I address these by maintaining an up-to-date DBS check, carrying references, and ensuring clear communication throughout. I always arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand so you and your children can get to know me. My experience with diverse age groups, including my primary school work, ensures I can adapt to different personalities and needs, making every child feel secure and happy.

How do I book your babysitting services?

Booking is easy! You can contact me directly via phone at 07842276570 or email at sophiel2408@icloud.com to discuss your needs and check my availability. We can then arrange a convenient time for an initial consultation. I recommend booking in advance, especially for evenings and weekends, to secure your preferred dates.
