Anyone have any recommendations on an agency for babysitting services? Names of individuals at said agency?
Re: Babysitting exchange; basically we would take turns babysitting.. For example if you would like to go out on a thursday evening- I might come over to your home to babysit. In exchange you would come to my home on another evening. Alternatively we could bring baby to the person minding the baby (nap or sleep in cot) during day or evening, etc. Sort of like what an extended family member might do.
This does not involve money- rather trust that we would care for your baby as lovingly as our own. and vice versa.
I'm also interested in this information.
I'm happy to reciprocate babysitting in exchange for babysitting. We would love an occasional night out!
We had a lovely lady who was a mum of a friend who used to do it for us and said it was the easiest job she had ever done. DD was in bed by the time she came round at 7.30pm and she never wakes through the night so she was paid to watch the TV!! Unfortunately being new to dubai we dont know anyone yet so having to resort to agencies. Not too sure how babysitting exchange would work but like the idea!
Kayastar did you find anyone? I would like to find a nanny to look after my DD while me and DH have some "date nights" :) It would only be once a month on say a Friday night but need to know DD is in good hands so we can relax and enjoy our night. Its time like this that living so far away from my mum really sucks :(
Anyone else used an agency that they can recommend and any particular person to ask for? TIA
