Teen Baby Sitters?
By aprilfamily •
We are moving to Doha next month (wow, it's wierd to say that - it's so close now!).
I have a daughter who is kept very busy babysitting here and she is wondering if people use teen babysitters there. Not only does she love being with kids, but she loves the money too!
We have family in the Middle East and know that many people there use maids or such to watch children when they go out. Is it a similar situation in Doha? Should I prepare her for disappointment from now?
I'm 18 and looking for a summer job, I love kids and would love to be a babysitter; I study medicine and hence know first aid, I have also participated at a nursery before. I can plan activities for your kids,to keep them entertained through the summer. I will not charge a lot.
I have a lot of love and care to shower your kids with! I can do anything from changing diapers to playing with them.
For those of you who are interested send me a PM :)
My name's Van Anh. I'm from Vietnam, 22yrs old. I have a lot of free time so i can be a babysitter. I have many experience in taking care and playing with children.
This is my tel number 55033108 and [email protected]
Plz feel free to contact me if you need
Thanks
teen baby sitter could be a great one to handle our babies but we must have to look forward on their age if they are allowed by our LAW to work such like that. :)
I am a 21 years old girl, married and from Bosnia. I speak 5 languages (Bosnian, Swedish, Danish, English & German), currently learning Arabic as well.I am very familiar with taking care of kids and baby sitting them. I have got a lot of experience with it and i love it. I have one baby brother in Sweden that I took care of all the time,
I'm loving, caring and very kind, specially around kids. I will babysit kids in the morning (typically around 7 to 4 but I am also flexible) after you drop them by my house (I'll take care of the kids and their hygiene and meals as well in my house) as advised by the mother of the kid.
I would like to communicate with the mother of the child, or any other female member of the family. Upon agreement and arrangements you are always most welcomed to visit me initially at a time agreed on.
I am a religious Muslim, and very familiar and accustomed to many different traditions and cultures as I lived my whole life in Denmark and Sweden and just stepped out of Europe, for the first time in my life, to come to Qatar. Feel free to contact me on my email: Mekii90/-a-t-/gmail.com for any further details. Note: I am flexible with the charges and im living in Al-Gharafa area, also I only want WOMEN to call, NOT men :)

I got through my training whilst babysitting...it brings alot of quiet time to study...when the brats finally go to sleep that is!
Life is differente here, you might read post like boriiiing, it's true, because the parents in some cases are not involved. With activities and good communication with them, they can be very busy, and the time in this region pass very fast, if your kid is enrolled in a good school than let see if there's time for baby setting, and also she will have a lot of friends overhere let her enjoye and experience a multicultural society, she will grow stronger, this is from a mother to mother welcome to Qatar.
LoL Arien
my thougts too FS. I have a 11 year old brat who is struggling to find time for his club activities.

Listen to Many..Speak to a few.
I agree with formatted soul, how they can managed on week days, My son was asked for music lessons, first he was excited, than after one month he started to worry about revisons, time consuming already on the traffic . plus the sport evening, I will suggest to all parents to think about it only for the week ends.
Friendly
How old is she, Nov??
babyblofish, my sitter is my husband working's collegue (spelling?) daughter.
Not sure about younger one, I can pass you her dad's number and you can ask him/her yourself?
Nov, who is your sitter? Is she good with younger ones? Mine is an 18 months old. Would you recommend her?
april,
where do you live exactly? i have a 2y/o son
=Dura Lex Sed Lex=
We are not used to concept of teen baby sitters in our place...am just wondering how they manage their studies if they baby sit during weekdays.
I think aprilfamily's daughter (if i am not mistaken) charging QR 35 an hour plus taxi cost. Her dad is a doctor and mum is a nurse (excuse me if i am wrong, it been a while since last time I am inquiring about her), so in case of emergency she have a good backup.
My sitter cost QR 25 an hour plus taxi, or you can pick her up and drop her back at her house. She study in Doha College.
How much is it to pay a babysitter per hour? My baby is 18 months old.
Can anybody recommend somebody, I just do not want to drop or let anybody come into my house to look after my baby without recommendation.
Can i have your contact number ... mine is 6002804
im near in bin ombran if you still need a baby sitter.you can drop by your baby to my house anytime and you can pick her/him anytime also.just PM me.thnk you!

aprifamily ... not far from my house. I leave somewhere off the C ring road ... opposite the Muntaza Park.
Hi there,
I have a little one too, who will be 6 months by then, and would love to have someone to take care of her!
Do let me know when you are here,
Cheers!
Wow!!
I'll share the good news with her. I know she'll be happy to hear she will be able to babysit so much there. Sometimes I think she'd rather do that than hang out with kids her own age.
Hubby found housing for us. All I know is that it is near D-Ring Road and Nijmeh (sp?) Street, near a mall. Hopefully that will be near to some of you.
april ... it seems you will have work line up for your teen
I'd love a teen babysitter for my 2.5 year old daughter. Send me a pm!
Hi April...
Please let me know if you're here ....
My kids is 6 & 7 years old...
Thanks... :)
hi Aprilfamily,
Me and my wife are ooiking for a good baby sitter to our two lovely kids 6 and 8 years old. Therefore, when you have satteled in Doha would you kindly drop us a note.
Best regards.
Qazeiha family
I'm always on the lookout for a good babysitter for my two year old and I know my friend is too, so theres plenty of work! My old babysitter went back to UK recently and haven't been able to find one since!! I live in Al Waab if you're moving anywhere near there!!
Hi Aprilfamily
I am a single mom in Doha and i have lots of evening work responsibilities so i would also def look for a babysitter i can trust, i have been here for three weeks and i am still desperatly trying to find a nanny and babysitter , please contact me when you get here and maybe we can make arrangements
thanx
hello...
i will move for living in qatar starting on April 2008
looking after children is my daily activity in indonesia during off duty
i'am looking for a part time job
and also looking for friendly people that can help me so
as house-maid, gardener, child keeper and anything that i can do
i dont really need money from this part time job
i just need foods to keep me alive without using my primary salary
it seems you will be staying around my house area. Do drop me a PM when she is here ... i more than happy to ask her to baby sit my 6 yrs old.
But anywhere in Doha is not that far anyway ... so we will see.
And i will take her home ... so you dont have to worry about how she get home.
- N -
She'll be glad to know that people do use teens there. I've seen so many requests for domestic help involving babysitting that I didn't want to get her hopes up.
And, Novita, I hope I didn't come across as advertising!! LOL!! She'll be 13 when we get there (in late-March/early April), but has gone through the Red Cross's Safe Sitter program, learning CPR and all kinds of safety stuff. Unfortunately, I'm not sure where we'll be living. My husband is still trying to find housing for us. I think he's looking at a couple of places in the Al Muntaza (sp?) area.
April,
Along with what Novita said, if you will be living in a compound there are always lots of opportunities for teens to babysit. I like it because our daughter doesn't leave the compound while babysitting and we generally know everyone she is babysitting for plus we are close incase their is a problem.
Hey April ... how old is your teen? My son's baby sitter used to be 14 yrs old boy who now moving back to the UK for his study.
If you dont live very far from my place i dont mind to use her. My deal usually my friend dropped her son for baby sitting then i take her son back to their house. I can use the same deal with your daughter i guess. And i normally pay QR 15 an hour.
Drop me a PM when you get to Doha :D
