Babysitting

When do we recruit new babysitters?

We require babysitters for most times of the year, but we do not recruit during the Easter school holidays, the month of March and July, the first two weeks of August, the February and October half-term, or between Christmas and January 6th. At all other times of the year we are looking to take on more babysitters.

To qualify

You will need to be over 18 and currently employed as a nurse, nanny, teacher or similar or be able to verify considerable recent babycare experience and live in any SW, W or SE postal area. Outside London or if you live in an outer SE postal area a car is also essential.

Where and when to register in London
(London postal district area)

Our London address is 17 Nottingham Street - 5 minutes from Baker Street Station - you only have to come and see us once for the interview - the babysitting assignments will be local to where you live.

We register new babysitters between 2.15pm and 4pm weekdays - but not on Fridays. [If you are in full-time employment as a nurse, nanny or teacher only, it is also possible to register for babysitting (but not nanny work) on Saturdays at 1.30pm.]

In all cases no appointments are required.

Bring two references (at least one should be a written childcare reference) and if you are from overseas, we will need to see your passport too. Please also bring your CV if you have one and a passport size photo. If you have a 1^st Aid Certificate, police check or evidence of any childcare qualification or teaching diploma, please bring them too.
