Hi families! I am a Japanese Brazilian language tutor working also as a part-time nanny. I have more than 4 years of experience in providing care for children aged 3 months to 8 years old. In North Melbourne, I assisted a lovely family with 3 children (ages from 1 to 8) for 2 years, 4 days per week and occasional weekends, and babysat for the family's friends over the weekends too, so I can provide great references. My duties included preparing breakfast, morning and afternoon snacks, lunch and dinner, dressing, changing nappies, bathing, taking them to the park or library, reading books, preparing craft activities, supervising them during playtime, organising toys, unloading/loading the dishwasher, and an occasional childcare/school pick up or drop off by foot. In South Yarra, I assisted a couple of doctors with a 3-month-old baby, 4 days per week and occasional weekends, for 1 year. My duties included preparing and cleaning bottles, feeding and preparing solid food, dressing, changing nappies, taking him to the park, reading books, organising toys, unloading/loading the dishwasher, and occasionally preparing meals for the parents. I have been working as a language tutor for more than 14 years, teaching mainly Japanese, but also Portuguese and English to people from different countries. Being an enthusiast of languages, I have also studied French to manage a trip to France and Italian to live in Rome for almost a year. I studied Arts at university as well, so I enjoy some crafting too.  As a South American, I value family and communication, so I consider that home should be a place where we feel loved, safe, and supported. As a Japanese descendant, I believe in the sense of community and being socially responsible to the people around us and the environment. I take great pleasure in explaining things to kids and have a patient personality. Looking forward to meeting you :)

Hi there! My name is Steph. I have been babysitting all ages for nearly 10 years now, and working with kids is truly my passion. I have been working in OSHC and kindergarten school-readiness programs for the past 3 years. I have experience with children with a wide range of ages, abilities, medical conditions, and neurodivergence. I am confident with planning and running a variety of activities, catered to different interests. Though, I highly value child-led play and I am always happy to go with the flow and see where the game takes us. I absolutely love working with and playing with kids. They are my favourite people! I am always up for a story, a song, dress-ups, art, or sport. I'm not afraid to look silly if it makes a kid laugh! My absolute favourite part of working with kids is building a genuine connection, and watching a once shy kid come out of their shell. Last year, I graduated from a Bachelor of Biomedical Science, and I have now begun a Master of Teaching, with the goal of working with neurodivergent kids in the future. I have a current Working With Children Check, First Aid, Anaphylaxis and Asthma training, Food Safety Certification, Child Protection training, and Police Check. I also have a full Australian Driver's License and my own car, plus lots of experience installing and using different car seats. I would absolutely love the opportunity to get to know your family, help you out, and have some fun!
