Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Bringing up a family is a big job and I have lots of time and energy to give to help you provide a bit of extra care, support and fun with raising your children. I can help your family by lending a hand when you need it or on a more permanent basis. I have experience caring for children of all ages and am prepared to help with extra tasks wherever and whenever it is required. I also love pets and enjoy cooking too. I have had tonnes of experience in community pharmacy and in hospitality and have raised two children of my own who are now fully grown. I am a genuine down to earth sort of person and have a can do attitude and feel happy to be able to ease the pressure a little on the very stretched time parents grapple with when raising children. Please feel free to contact me and figure out a plan that suits for your family.

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

hi parents! i have been babysitting since i was 16 years old, and this led me into doing qualifications in early childhood after high school. Worked at the royal children's hospital early learning centre for 2 years. i was a room leader in the toddlers room, i also looked after a Down syndrome once a week. The reason i left RCH was to travel and work overseas in italy as a nanny/tutor. i was there for 6 months then went back to italy again the year after with the same family for another 4 months. Went back to study and completed social work and am now working as a case manager in foster care. I currently work with complex foster young children and adolescents with extensive trauma backgrounds and challenging behaviours. I also case manage with children who are on NDIS. Have a lot of experience with children who have ASD and intellectual disabilities. i see myself always smiling, reliable, honest, fun, and respectful, and i have a friendly approach. my passion for children continues to grow every day. I am looking for some casual/weekend babysitting as i love being around children (toddlers especially) and happy to help out parents who need a break!

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

I’m 20 years old and I’ve loved getting the chance to work with kids in different settings. I’ve worked in education support with ages 5–12, including supporting children with special needs, helping them learn and grow. I also recently spent a summer in the U.S. at a camp with kids aged 7–12, which was such a fun and rewarding experience. Working with children has made me really interested in understanding people and what shapes who they are, and that’s a big reason why I want to study psychology in the near future.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello. My name is Rebecca. I have been a stay at home mum for the past 10 years caring for my son who is now 10 yo. I have been in a relationship with my husband since 2004. We live together with our son in Kalorama which we have lived since 2017. Prior to being a full time mum, I worked as a Registered Nurse for almost a decade in metropolitan Melbourne as well as in various rural settings throughout Victoria, both in the hospital and community setting. Im a qualified Natuopath and use herbs, nutrition and homeopathics to maintain the health of myself and my family. I am interested in the role the mind has on health, and I have been studying meditation and Buddhism for over decade. I also volunteer at a local Buddhist temple. As well as experience caring for my own son and his many cousins, I have provided before and after school care in my home for children from my son's school. I'd love to help and support parents in caring for their home and their children. I can help with cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, sport drop off, pick up, gardening and more. I understand parenting is a big job and I'd be delighted to help where I can. Having a nursing background, I am very practical and skilled with hands on care and emotional wellbeing. I love children of all ages, indoor and outdoor activities including bushwalking, sport, craft, puzzles, games and reading with children. My son is Steiner educated so I am very familiar with this method of education and our family adopts a lifestyle that safe guards childhood and promotes wonder in the natural environment. I love nature and respect the environment so would feel uncomfortable using heavy duty cleaning products and contributing excessively to environmental waste. I look forward to connecting with you. Thanks for reading!
