Looking for: Casual Babysitting

I’m currently an Au Pair caring for three children (ages 1, 5, and 8) about 20–25 hours per week, so I have plenty of time! I grew up with two siblings and helped raise my two little cousins, so I’ve been around children my whole life. I studied Human Sciences in high school, focusing on pedagogy, psychology, and education. Over the years I’ve gained hands-on experience in different settings: working in a kindergarten (ages 3–5), assisting children from immigrant families while their parents handled documents, supporting children in a foster home, and participating in an inclusive theatre project with people of all ages and abilities. I’d describe myself as sunny, warm, creative, and responsible. I naturally connect with kids, love making them laugh, encouraging curiosity, and creating safe, playful moments where they feel valued. Patience and empathy come easily, and I always aim to bring good energy into everything I do. I can cook, I’m organized and reliable, and happy to help with meals, homework, or light household tasks. I speak fluent English and am a native Italian speaker, so I can share some of my culture and language if you’d like.

🌟 Caring, Experienced Support for Your Family Hello! I'm a vibrant father of adult children who now finds joy in supporting the next generation of parents. With my own parenting journey behind me (my youngest is now 19!), I’ve chosen to give back to the community by offering a warm, reliable, and trustworthy presence for children and families in need of an extra helping hand. 👶 Why I Do This In a world where many families no longer have a “village,” I love being part of that missing support system—easing the load and helping you survive the endless juggle of parenting. Instead of having more children of my own, I now care for children on my days off from my full-time role as a hairdresser. 🧠 My Background Before hairdressing, I worked as a youth worker supporting at-risk young people in out-of-home care. This experience shaped my passion for nurturing children’s emotional, physical, and developmental growth in a safe, stimulating, and fun environment. 🚗 What I Offer * School pick-ups & drop-offs * Supervision at extracurricular activities * Playdates & age-appropriate outings * A fun, energetic presence—just when you need it most! 💕 A Bit More About Me * I celebrate and include children from all backgrounds and abilities * I’m reliable, consistent, and have been in a loving same-sex relationship for 18 years * I currently support 2 families and would love to meet yours! * References available upon request ✅ Qualifications & Checks * Current Working With Children Check (WWCC) * Current Police Check * First Aid, CPR, Anaphylaxis & Asthma Training * Fully vaccinated: * Whooping cough, Tetanus, Diptheria * Measles, Mumps, Rubella * COVID-19 (JN.1 FDA-approved) * RSV vaccine 🚭 Non-smoker | 🚗 Own transport | 🐶 Pet-friendly
