Seeking punctual child care for occasional afternoons

I’m looking for a reliable babysitter for occasional afternoon care for my two kids, aged 4 and 6. The job would involve supervising playtime, preparing a light snack, helping with a short, quiet reading activity, and ensuring safety until I return from work. I’d prefer someone with prior experience with preschoolers, able to engage them in calm, creative activities, and comfortable with bedtime routines if needed. Availability on weekdays sometimes on short notice, with a preferred start time around early afternoon. Location is in [City], UK. If you can provide references, bring a caring, patient approach, and have a valid DBS/residence check, please message me with rates and a bit about your approach to child safety and routine.
