D&D 5E New Monster - The Silver Baba

I am building a parody of the Seven Sisters for my world, but using a lower cr guage.

I'm using this as a rough model.

I am open to any and all feedback.

Perhaps the Foresight might be permanent? Would she really have Simulacrum memorised for an encounter? And I'm not seeing any great escape spells.

Should the recharge for Foreshadow be 'casts a spell of 1st level or higher'?
 

ooh will treak foresight.

One second thought, I don't think it needs a recharge namely because it is random and circumstancial as it is.

What is a great way to escape using divination magic?
