It looks great but I am sure you are worth more than £5 an hour! Is that the going rate because it seems low to me?

CaptainKarvol · 28/04/2008 13:01

Tis very good - I'd be hiring you if I were anywhere near you (haven't been out with DH for 2+ years now...). Only thing I'd want to know is what are the youngest/oldest ages you'd sit for - couldn't find that, so assuming any, but you could say?

bringmesunshine · 28/04/2008 13:01

I think it looks great - you sound nice, experienced and above all professional. I wish you lots of luck with it.

schneebly · 28/04/2008 13:03

well spotted Yorkshire!

wordgirl - am just starting out so didn't want to price myself too high and we are oop north so can't charge as much as darn saff

Schneebly - it's nice, reassuring. There are a few bits that are a bit long-winded; if no one else points them out I'll do it this evening for you.

One typo: in 'services' you said 'make booking' instead of 'make a booking'.

£5 per hour sounds a bit cheap to me - is that the going rate in your area?

I would use you if you were in my area!

schneebly · 28/04/2008 13:04

and Captain Karvol! Yes any age welcome - will maybe mention that

OP posts:
schneebly · 28/04/2008 13:06

Janni - thanks I had a feeling that some of it was long winded just not sure how to cut it! Am a bit prone to long-windedness

I agree that £5 is cheap - do you think that would put people off? I just wanted to stand a good chance of getting jobs.

Well I'm up north too and would expect to pay someone at least the minimum wage so with all your experience and the extra services you are offering I would have thought people would be happy to pay more.

But I can see that you don't want to put people off by charging too much. I should imagine they will be beating your door down for that price to be honest!

Fullmoonfiend · 28/04/2008 13:13

wish you were local to me, I'd book you like a shot!

crackinggoodegg · 28/04/2008 13:15

Looks very good, just wish you lived in London

schneebly · 28/04/2008 13:19

aww thank you - very reassuring as I will be giving up my day job soon to go to university and could really do with the income!

I like it! You sound a lot like my babysitter whom I adore! Good luck! I agree you can charge a bit more.

LadyJogsAlot · 28/04/2008 13:32

how about a reference section?
is there anyone who can say something nice about you?!

schneebly · 28/04/2008 13:34

lapin - no not at all! I am totally open to advice from a pro.

eeny - thanks!

Lady - good idea will maybe ask

SheikYerbouti · 28/04/2008 13:36

I'd say more pictures are deffo needed.

Also, you are too cheap! I'd charge more personally.

SheikYerbouti · 28/04/2008 13:37

By the way, if you want, I can go through it all with a fine-toothed comb if you like for grammar etc (I am a proof-reader)
