When considering a babysitter here on the Coast, it is important to consider whether or not you can trust them. This may seem like an easy decision, but in reality the most difficult part of trusting someone else with your children will probably come from our own mindset as parents and which of the various babysitting styles suits you and your children best!

When dealing with newborns through to adolescents there isn’t always enough hours between morning wake up calls until bedtime stories are finished just so that everyone has some “down” time – which makes a reputable babysitting service to important.

It’s a big decision to choose and trust someone you don’t know with your child, no matter whether you’re leaving for dinner for just a few hours, or need an extended care service. To help make the choice easier for you, we’ve compiled a list of things to consider when choosing your Gold Coast babysitter:

1) Use a reputable baby sitting service

A good place to start is to ask friends or family members who they use for babysitting. You may also want to choose a service with many positive testimonials (as we are so fortunate to have received here at Heaven Sent Help).

2) Call or email and ask your questions

A babysitter’s job isn’t babysitting, it is babysitter care. You should feel comfortable contacting the babysitter with questions and concerns about your child’s well-being. You will be able to get a better idea of the babysitter’s abilities and personality by having a phone call with Ann.

3) Trust your gut

If you don’t feel comfortable with the babysitter, there is a reason. No matter how much research you do or how much you like the babysitter on paper, if your gut tells you no, then it’s time to make a new choice.

4) Consider age

Babysitters who are close in age to your children will likely give them more fun, whereas a babysitter closer in age to a parent or grandparent will provide them with some more structure and routine.

There you have it! If you are feeling a little less nervous now, we’re glad to have helped. Please enquire about Heaven Sent Help baby sitting services on the Gold Coast by using the Contact form below. We’ll get back to you as quick as we can.

School holidays are certainly a fun time for kids.  They can forget about their usual routines and go outside, or stay in, and have a ball.  School holidays can be fun for parents too.  If you fancy a day or night out without the little ones Heaven Sent Help can certainly assist you.

The Gold Coast has a huge array of activities for all ages.  Restaurants, parks, theme parks, wildlife sanctuary and kilometres of fabulous beaches.

Make the most if them. Give us a call.

Ann and the Team

 

We are all aware of the saying, we see it on cards, carvings, wall hangings and the like and now more than ever as we put in place plans to survive our stay at home lockdown we should heed the saying more than ever.  These unprecedented times have suddenly changed our lives as we know it. To protect our families and friends we have been forced to do something that we have never in our life time had to do before.

Over time we have surrounded ourselves with stuff.  Stuff that we thought one day we will get on to that, or one day we will play that game.  Now is the time.

It is also a time to enjoy your family, to reconnect, get to know them again on another level, share the stuff, play that game and live in the moment.  Enjoy this time that money can’t buy who knows you may miss it when we get back to “normal”.

Heaven Sent Help babysitting agency is a family run business and has been operating successfully since 1983.

My husband and I are the current owners. We have owned Heaven Sent Help for 13 years and are only the fourth family to run the business since it’s establishment 35 years ago.  A lot has changed in our time at the helm as we enter the digital world. Yellow pages were the go to for advertising and everyone relied on their land line for communcation.  But one thing for certain during this time of change is our professionalism, duty of care and reliability has not faltered.  We have seen quite a few agencies come and go in our time.  Heaven Sent Help has remained at the top of the list as the most trusted and longest running agency on the Gold Coast.  We have a very long list of Hotels and Resorts that have been recommending Heaven Sent Help since they opened their doors.

If you are looking for a trusted babysitter to care for your young ones please contact us.  No doubt you may have a few questions, especially if it is for the first time that you are leaving your little ones.  I am a mother myself and completely understand and always available to assit you with any queries you may have.
