Skilled Babysitter - Yorkshire Based!

My name is Alicia, I’m 17 years old, and I’m a passionate, friendly, and responsible babysitter with one year of experience caring for children from newborns to toddlers and preschoolers. I’m currently working hard to save for university, and babysitting has not only helped me do that—it’s also something I genuinely enjoy and care about. I’ve looked after babies who need feeds, nappy changes, and naps, as well as energetic toddlers and curious preschoolers who love to play, ask questions, and explore the world around them. Whether it’s a quiet bedtime shift or an active afternoon of games, I adjust to meet your child’s needs with a calm, confident, and caring approach. Kids can be unpredictable, and I’ve learned to stay calm, patient and gentle through tantrums, tiredness, and mess. I create a peaceful and positive environment that helps little ones feel safe and heard. I love coming up with activities that make time fly! From inventing silly songs to creating obstacle courses or DIY crafts, I keep things fun and imaginative (without the screens). Reading books is one of my favourite things to do with kids. I make stories come alive with voices, actions, and questions that get them thinking and laughing. I know how important consistency is for young children. I follow your routines and rules closely, so your child always feels secure and in good hands. I believe in leaving things better than I found them. I’ll tidy up toys and dishes after meals so you can return to a calm, clean space. Parents often say I’m mature, kind, and great with kids and I always aim to be someone both you and your child can trust. I’m available on weekends, evenings and for emergency or last-minute bookings if I’m free. I can also help with preparing light meals, bottles, and snacks, assisting with toilet training, tidying play areas, and sticking to nap/bedtime routines. Thank you for considering me.
