Babysitter who had sex with 11-year-old admits: 'I fall in love too quickly'

Guilty: Jade Hatt, 21, had sex with an 11-year-old boy

A female babysitter who had sex with an 11-year-old boy has admitted: "I fall in love too quickly."

Jade Hatt, 21, was looking after the youngster as he had a day off school when she stripped off, removed his clothes, then straddled him and had sexual intercourse.

However Hatt was defended in court by the boy's father, who has also had a previous sexual relationship with the woman.

The court heard the incident in November lasted around 45 seconds, and afterwards the boy admitted he had not enjoyed it as he knew it was wrong.

A judge demanded that Hatt must register as a sex offender for seven years, but she avoided jail.

Speaking for the first time since the case, she told The Sun: "I fall in love too quickly.

"What made me sleep with him? I’m not sure. He told me he was older and I believed it. I thought he was 16 or 17 because he is taller and acts older."

Hatt, who is unemployed, added: "I know what I’ve done is really, really wrong but it’s never going to happen again."

Passing sentence Judge Tim Mousley QC said it was an exceptional case allowing him to step outside the rigours of the sentencing guidelines.

He imposed a six month jail term suspended for two years with supervision and said she must register as a sex offender for seven years.

Judge Mousley also imposed a sexual harm prevention order banning her from having unsupervised contact with young boys for two years.
