Looking for: Casual Babysitting

Looking for any weekend/evening babysitting opportunities. I am enthusiastic, energetic and very keen to eventually pursue youth work at some point in my career. Having returned from working with children in Canada, I find it rewarding and meaningful and am looking for available childcare opportunities alongside my current full time position. I am 25 years old and gained considerable childcare experience from a gap year placement working overseas in England in a boarding house caring for 18 ten year old boys. I am the eldest of 10 cousins and have been looking after babies and young children since I was 12 as well as doing various babysitting jobs for local families over the years. Most recently, I returned from Canada where I was working in a role with X Movement. We worked across primary schools in the greater Toronto area facilitating in-school extra curricular programs with an emphasis on mental wellbeing through mindfulness, movement and mateship. I have completed a significant amount of community service working in a after school care in Beecroft and have qualifications from lifesaving Australia as well as my first aid certificate. I also coached a young netball team for 2 years in 2013/2014. I feel confident working with children of all ages and have a substantial amount of flexibility in the evenings as I am currently working from home.

Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

In 2008 I came to Australia from Brazil to study English and Business at the Business College CBD and faculty of education and social work. 
 I am committed, polite and respectful of people's time and personal space. I'm punctual and always pay attention to different styles of parenting, as it helps me to be the best nanny I can be. I am passionate about the world of children and enjoy art, colouring, reading children's books and watching children's films. I have watched with a 36 month read one of Sesame Street’s story books in a rhythmic sing-song way. Children are highly inspirational; us adults can learn a lot by simply watching them play. I am able to cook and I love to cook great meals as soup heath snacks and nutritious meals. Ideally, I'm looking for a permanent position but will consider casual or part-time work. I have excellent references and will provide them upon request. Please feel free to contact me +61 448 326 975 Kind Regards Bella

I also work Thursdays and Fridays in a childcare centre. I have multiple great references from families in Sydney and am more than happy to pass them on. I am curious and passionate about children/ babies and their needs and development. I see myself as more than just someone to 'watch the kids' I like to become part of the family and help keep order in the house, someone the children can trust and go to for comfort, someone to educate little ones and look out for their well being and help them learn and grow in a safe environment. I enjoy being involved in children's day to day lives and the bond I get to form with them. I put everything I have into my job and every child I have ever had the pleasure to nanny, I have loved dearly. I have most of my full time nanny experience with children between the ages of newborn and 4 years. I am knowledgeable about all the usual milestones little ones go through during this time (starting solids, crawling, walking, talking, potty training etc) My specific knowledge with newborns includes sleep and settling techniques, reading babies cues, developing a feed/ sleep routine that suits your families needs. In 2025 I will have availability between 2 and 5 days with flexible hours. I have a police check, WWCC, first aid and CPR. That's just a bit about me and my experience, please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have! I look forward to hearing from you soon, Georgia

Hi! I am a Career Nanny with over 25 years experience in childcare. I am a Nanny/ Governess/ English Teacher/ Maternity Nanny (depending on the families requirements). I started out in Australia as a live-in nanny and an agency babysitter for 8 years, then moved over to the UK/Europe and Russia to more high-profile jobs over the next 13 years. 2010-2012 I worked in Australia with 2 different families full time and 2 babysitting agencies in my spare time. My most recent placement was in Singapore with a wonderful ex pat family and their young daughter. Since then I had a wonderful 3 day sole charge placement with 2 young girls in Sydney for a year. I am flexible to my days/hours but would like to do long days(9+hours), perhaps 2 different jobs or 5 days with one family. Please do get in touch if you are interested to talk about any position you think I may be interested in (I am also keen to secure regular evening babysitting) and I will reply promptly. On a personal note: I'm very friendly, fun, professional, youthful, optimistic, flexible, reliable, easy-going (disciplined when needed!),responsible, tidy and very experienced at my job. I love all ages of children, their development and education. I love animals also. I have a clean drivers licence.

I have many contactable references including 2 in Sydney. In the last few years I have been fulfilling Superannuation residency requirements in NZ, and running my own small business. I have now completed this time and really excited to step back into my childcare career and secure my next permanent long-term role. **Working with Children Check & First Aid Certificate I will obtain when I arrive back in Australia.
