Baby Sitting Circle

The North Waltham babysitting circle is a small group of parents who exchange babysitting services.   We work on a points system whereby you accumulate points when you babysit for others and use your points to "pay" when someone else babysits for you.  The advantages are:

• An available list of babysitters who are experienced in dealing with children, including a number of local young people (who will require payment)
• Free babysitting, although you must be prepared to babysit for others from time to time
• use of the Circle as much or as little as you like.

Although we are all currently living in North Waltham, we would welcome new members from the other villages.

Are you a young person who also offers babysitting?
We already have a few local young people who offer babysitting services, which is particularly useful when we all want to go to the same village event!  If you have experience of babysitting and would like to be added to the list, please let me know.  Please note that your contact details will only be shared with members of the Babysitting Circle and not passed to anyone else without your consent.

If you would like more details, or to join the Circle, please contact me on 397188 or rosemary.coulter6@btinternet.com
