AVAILABLE FOR ADHOC/CASUAL NANNYING AND BABYSITTING! Hello, my names Celia and I’ve recently just moved to Melbourne from the UK. I have over 10 years experience in childcare, with children aged between 0-12 years. I am caring, fun and experienced in ensuring children are happy and safe. I'm a qualified Early Years Teacher, and am constantly refreshing my knowledge and practice within childcare. I love being outside in all weathers and exploring new places. I also enjoy cooking, reading stories and messy play. When taking care of children I follow their lead, supporting their development and learning through their interests. My approach is very gentle, calm and loving. I focus on attachment and supporting children in becoming independent and navigating life!

Hi Families, I am a passionate care-giver looking to do some part time nannying/casual baby sitting! Growing up in a large family ignited my love for working with children, and prompted my employment at a Reggia Emilio style childcare facility. I now have extensive experience working with children from ages 6 months - 12 years old as well as a broad knowledge of childcare pedagogies. The specific values of play and creativity in order to explore independence is now instinctive to my care for children. I have worked as a part time nanny for a 1 year old and 3 year old, as well as having extensive experience in general baby sitting within my community. I consider myself a warm, fun, loving and creative carer, who genuinely enjoys being around children. Whilst I love to have fun, I am cautious of the safety expectations when caring for young children and will always make this my priority. I am competent in changing nappies, calming children etc and whilst I don't hold a drivers license I do know how to put on a good monster voice for a bedtime story!

Hi, I'm Poppy! I'm a 20-year-old Economics student and Chancellor's Scholarship recipient at the University of Melbourne. I live in the inner North and work a corporate job part-time (legal and policy research), and am looking for some extra income to support my studies. I have a Victorian Working With Children's Check and a First Aid Certificate (HLTAID010, HLTAID011) from St John Ambulance. I have 3 years+ experience private tutoring school-aged children through the agency KIS Academics, through which I have 9 x glowing 5-star reviews from parents, and I'm now looking to pivot into babysitting. I grew up with 2 longer siblings and 25 younger cousins so am well-versed in childcare, play and fun! I love music (especially Taylor Swift), dance, picnics, and baking.

Hello! My name is Abbie, I am a qualified Early Childhood educator and Teachers Aide with over 5+ years of experience. I have such a passion for working with children and love to learn and grow with them. I always strive to foster a fun, loving, and safe environment. Over the last 3 years I have been nannying whilst studying for a Bachelor of Psychology and Criminology. I have had the pleasure of working with 3 beautiful families. The children’s ages ranged from 5mnths to 12 years old. Throughout the last 5+ years I have thus gained experience in settling, making bottles, transitioning to solids, changing nappies, helping children reach their milestones and creating age appropriate activities that are fun, safe and loving whilst working with families to ensure their children are under the best care; tailored to their needs. I also have experience with older children after working in a primary school and of course having younger siblings of my own! I love taking the children out for adventures to the Zoo, Aquarium and Museum! But we also love creating at home, visiting local parks and exploring our own back yards! I am also happy to help around the house and ensure that the household runs smoothly. happy to provide excellent references.

I'm confident with all age groups and aim to create a fun and safe environment. I also have tutoring experience, so I’m happy to help with homework or learning activities.

hey everyone, I am lucy, a 22 year old female Scot living in Melbourne on a WHV.

Continuing my sisters legacy as the neighborhood babysitter, I have experience working with kids aged 4 -13 for over 10 years and have learned how to thrive during the everyday chaos. Every day I strive to create a fun and safe learning environment while managing daily schedules, running activities, providing tutoring, and attending to each child’s unique needs. Beyond babysitting I have some unique experiences working at a summer camp leadings kids in outdoor activities (hiking, field games, creek time, canoeing, gardening), indoor activities (crafts, theatre, logic puzzles, dance battles), cleaning the cabin, meal time, and preparing clothes for the next day's activities Beyond this, I have also volunteered with my local after school program doing math and english tutoring for children falling behind in school. Here I learned how to tailor lessons to each kid’s learning styles and help them build confidence they often lost from class. Lastly, over the past 8 years, I have taught guitar to both beginners and more experienced players over every age range. Personally, music lessons were a huge part of my growth as a young teen and provided me with both a creative outlet and many of my favorite life experiences playing on stage With my teaching, I focus on creating engaging lesson plans to keep kids excited and building up a musical foundation that they will have forever. Teaching guitar is one of my favorite things in the world to do and I’d be happy to conduct lessons additionally if wanted !!!

I was the babysitter of so many kids and I really value creating a connection with the kids and parents, so everyone feel comfortable, safe and enjoy their time with each other. If this description sounds like what you're looking for, shoot me a message!
