Hi all, first post on here so hope Im doing it right!
I am moving to Dubai in August to take up a teaching post, along with my husband and 18 month old daughter. My husband is going to stay at home for first few months and then start looking for job, probably in catering.

My question is we want to hire a regular babysitter for my daughter, probably for 1 night per week and couple of weekend days per month. Is there a facility for this in Dubai? Have looked in maids/nannies but don't need someone full time or live in. Not sure where we going to be living yet, am hoping will be able to ask people around us but just wanted see if anyone had any thoughts?

Thanks Stacey

We use an agency called busy bees for night time occasional sitting but think there are others on Market. Good luck with move. Where will you be based?

Things change in Dubai rapidly especially during the summer period. Suggest you check old threads or current one regarding babysitting on main board for contact numbers. Possibly ask in a new thread in late August / September when most people will be back. Good luck with your move
