About Lyn
Hello, I'm Lyn ❤️
I am a grandmother of six, four of them under five, so I am well and truly in practice. I have my daughter's two on Mondays and Fridays and there is plenty left in the tank for one more family.
I have done everything from newborns up to the ones just starting preschool. Bottles, nappies, settling, the lot. A baby crying does not worry me, they all do it and it passes, and I have never yet met one who would not go down eventually.
I treat other people's children the same way I treat my own grandchildren. Somebody told me that is a silly thing to put in an ad because everybody says it, but it is true, so I am leaving it in.
What I would really like is a regular family. I would much rather have the same little one every Tuesday and watch them grow up than fill my week with different houses. My last family I had for four years until they moved up to the Central Coast, and the mum still sends me photos at Christmas.
I DO NOT DRIVE ON THE M4 sorry, only the local roads, my husband does the long trips.
I do a lot of baking so there will always be something in the tin ❤️
Ring me or send a message. I check my phone in the morning and again after tea.

Ten years in early childhood, babies are my thing
Ten years in early childhood, most of it in the nursery room. Babies are what I am best at: settling, bottles, starting solids, the stage where they will only sleep on a person. Diploma qualified. First aid, CPR and WWCC all current. I babysit Thursday to Sunday. Two hour minimum please, it is not worth the travel otherwise.

Babies and toddlers, gentle with first time parents
Hello! I'm Jenny. I've got two of my own (3 and 6) and before them I worked six years in a long day care nursery room with the under twos. Babies are my favourite. Settling, bottles, the lot. If you're heading back to work and you're a bit nervous about leaving them, I'm very happy to do a couple of short visits first while you're still in the house. First aid and CPR redone in March.

Mum of three, school hours and Saturday mornings
Hi, I'm Robyn. I've got three of my own (14, 11 and 7) so there honestly isn't much I haven't seen by now, including the fortnight we had chicken pox go through all three of them one after the other. I'm free during school hours and most Saturday mornings. Happy to come to you, or to have them here at mine, we've got a fenced yard, a trampoline and a very slow old dog called Nugget who will let a
