About Me
Hi!
We’re Amanda and Elliot, originally from the U.S. and now living in London for three years. We both work full-time, though I’m currently on maternity leave until August. We love traveling, staying active, trying new foods, and experiencing different cultures.
We recently welcomed our first daughter in February 2025 and are looking for an experienced, caring, reliable sitter to provide recurring care for 2-3 hours in the morning on Tuesday-Thursday while I’m on maternity leave, as well as for the occasional date night or event. Ideally, we’d love to find someone who can be a consistent presence in our daughter’s life and feel like an extended part of our family.
If you think you’d be a good fit, we’d love to connect!
