Baby sitting

Alesha from Maeroa

Hi everyone, I am a 21 year old university student, in my final year. I am looking for some work around the place. I have a lot of experience in child care and can give you some excellent references. I have just moved to the Maeroa area so I don’t know many families around. 


If you're looking for someone to take care of your children while you enjoy a night out, or have some errands to run during the day, or need before or after school care, you can rest assured knowing that I am the right person for the job.

I know how to cook and bake, so I can make your children healthy delicious meals or even do some baking activities. I have done all of NCEA i studied English, Biology, Graphic Design, Art and Enterprise studies through out high school (and have a good knowledge of NCEA math before 5th form or year 11) so I can also offer homework help and tutoring.

Please contact me if you're interested, 02102439101. 
I have my own vehicle and full license.

Poll: Would you help your kids out with buying a home?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

OPINION: Over the past year, I’ve had the same conversation with many Waikato families again and again.

A child has found a house. The market feels like it’s moving. There’s pressure to act quickly. And before anyone has really had time to think it through, parents are being asked to step in with cash, guarantees, or equity from their own home.

Would you help your kids out with buying a home? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
