Hello to all Mums & Dads, I have been in child care for 30 years & thoroughly enjoy looking after children. I'm currently employed as a nanny/housekeeper 2 days a week & am looking to find another wonderful family to work for on the other days. I offer a balance of professionalism, discretion, organisation, fun & warmth. Please contact me if you think I might fit in with your needs.

Hi, I’m Sara! I’ve been a babysitter for the last few years, and am doing a Bachelor of Early Childhood and Primary Education. Previously, I worked as a gymnastics coach for 3 years, where I was responsible for 6-10 children aged 4-12 years. At this club, I’ve learnt how to interact and work with many different children, so would love to further develop my experience. I am currently working at a local childcare, mostly in the 12-24 month room, at the same centre in which I have volunteered at from June 2024 to December 2025. I currently have a Working with Vulnerable People’s card, and am First Aid and CPR qualified. These accreditations are kept up to date to ensure that those I work with are safe. If you have any questions or would like to book, feel free to reach out!

Hi, I’m an 18‑year‑old first‑year university student and a casual teacher with a genuine love for working with children. I’m reliable, patient, and energetic, and I bring both practical experience and a caring attitude to every family I work with. I enjoy creating fun, engaging activities and supporting kids’ learning and routines. I’m confident with all ages and always aim to make children feel safe, happy, and understood. I’d love to support your family whenever you need an extra set of hands. Right now, I’m looking for casual, once‑off jobs or occasional work — things like helping out every second week or whenever you need an extra set of hands. My schedule changes week to week because of uni and my café job, so I’m not able to commit to regular mornings unless I have plenty of notice. The best way to organise something is to contact me for specific times, and I’ll let you know my availability. P.S., I am also a great cook!

Hi, my name's Georgia! I am in my forurth year of university, and have experience both as a babysitter and a tutor! As a babysitter during the covid era, a lot of my initial babysitting experience came from offering to take the children in my neighborhood to the park or to other outdoor activities during the day to give their parents a break while they had to work from home. I learnt a lot from this experience - I sometimes was looking after upwards of 5 kids from the ages of 4 to 12, so learning how to keep them all engaged, safe and happy was very essential. Most of my experience post-covid was mostly looking after children within one family. I've mostly babysat for families with 2+ kids, and am comfortable with getting dinner on the table and putting the kids to bed. One of my favourite things about babysitting is getting to know the children over time, so if you're looking for a more consistent babysitter rather than a one-off, I'm happy for that as well!

I am looking for part time or casual work to begin now. Ask me about hours because I may be able to help you out. I love children because they teach me to value the simple things in life and it's so wonderful to help them develop and learn new things. I love to be apart of all their growth. I am passionate about developing a positive self image. Emotional development is especially important I believe to support them to grow into healthy adults. I have references available for you. I provide a 50% discount on every 5th casual babysit or referrals. Conditions apply. Rates negotiable
