If you are intending on following me on Twitter, thanks heaps!
It's a little hard to say a lot in the 140 character bio on Twitter so I've created this page to tell you a little about me and how I use Twitter.
Forgive the dot points below it is a little sterile I will admit but thought it would be quicker.
Babysitterdirectory.com.au was launched in May 2008 and we are Australia's leading online social community connected parents directly with babysitters and nannies across Australia. We also host Babysitterdirectory Community a place for nannies and babysitters to connect.
Because Twitter don't seem to allow usernames longer than 11 characters I had to shorten Babysitterdirectory to @babysitterdirec. Less than ideal I know but hoping they see sense and change this restriction sometime soon

If you think there is a way your business, website , idea could work with Babysitterdirectory.com.au please feel free to tweet me or DM. Better still email me.
I am a vegetarian and don't have a pet (unless you count my three fish)
Have worked as a community development worker, journalist, writer and independent filmaker at different times in my life.
Mum to three gorgeous kids who inspire so much of what I blog and write about.
In Feb. 2010 I launched a new online business called Generous Party, which allows parents to plan and host a child's charitable birthday party.
In terms of my rules of who to follow / not to follow well its slightly whimiscal.I will generally not follow you back if you don't have an avatar, have no bio about who you are or have a lot of followers but no tweets. Also probably won't follow you if your bio and/or websites indicates that what you do or are interested in is totally unrelated to what I do or am interested or if I believe you are just following me to increase your followers numbers. Finally as this is a family targeted website I also won't follow inappropriate links or websites (porn oriented etc).
Now, if you know someone who you think I should follow then please tweet or DM me so I can check them out.
If you see '#ad' in a tweet it means that the organisation /company/service is a paid advertiser on Babysitterdirectory.
