Babysitter
Role: Weekly Babysitter
Location: Chelsea, London
Care for: B8
Schedule: Once per week, flexible evenings – ideally Monday, Wednesday or Thursday
Hours: Approximately 6:00pm–11:00pm
Salary: £20–£30 per hour
Start: ASAP
A lovely family based in Chelsea is looking for a friendly and engaging babysitter to provide evening care for their 8-year-old son once a week.
The family can offer some flexibility around the evening, although Mondays, Wednesdays or Thursdays would work particularly well. Hours will typically be around 6:00pm–11:00pm.
The role will involve spending time with the child during the evening, keeping him engaged and comfortable, helping with his usual evening routine and ensuring he is settled for bedtime.
Consistency is particularly important to the family, and they would ideally like to establish an ongoing relationship with the same one or two babysitters rather than having someone different each week.
This role would suit someone who:
• Is warm, friendly and naturally engaging with children
• Has previous childcare or babysitting experience
• Is reliable and comfortable working independently
• Can offer reasonably consistent weekly availability
• Is confident managing an evening and bedtime routine
This is a lovely opportunity for someone looking for a regular weekly babysitting position with a warm family in Chelsea.
