Hi,

I am not aware of the Legal needs...i think there are none required infact to start baby sitting at home.But the only factor needed is patience and more patience. It is work and only work from morning.. brushing, bathing the kids, feeding them, making them study(if they are school going), picking and dropping them to busstop.No holidays except friday.The only advice is please take advance payment from parents without fail. I think you would have charted out better plans. I poured out only some basics for help. Best wishes.

Parvathi.

hi,keerti

all the very best wishes for ur forth coming plans
there are certain things i an doting down which may be helpful
1) inform ur neighbours and get an approval so that these people may not make an issue once u start.
2)if ur in a 1bhk better to have all safety measures ie. balcony grilled, doored kitchens...............
3) better to have some playworks like foldable swings ans slides if there are more than 2 kids
4) hygiene and patience are more important

babysitting at home wont have any problem till any parent or neighbour wont make it an issue and register a complaint. but if things wont workout u very well know the rules and laws of UAE.

u might be very well aware of the new rule .if any kid below 5 if left in the house alone and found by CID they would charge parents with 50000 dhs fine & with 2yrs of imprisonment.so are u planning to have an extra nanny

i have just listed things so that u plan well before u start with it
hope everything goes well for u

regards
navis
