Nannies in Carlton North, VIC

Hello, I'm Lotta! I'm a Australian-Finnish babysitter and textile artist based in North Carlton, where I've lived for 14 years. I'm responsible, playful, creative, warm, and nurturing with a gentle diaposition. My experience with children ranges from birth to 11 years old, including caring for 2 under 5 for three years. I love supporting parents (new and seasoned) by providing a safe and stimulating environment for their little ones to grow and flourish. I priortise learning each individual families needs and offering tailored support, especially when it comes to sleep and learning styles. My expertise includes: • Sleeping and settling, overnight feeds, handling EBM/formula, introducing solids. • Bathing, nappies, administering basic medications (coloxl, vitamin D drops, panadol etc...). • Sensory, nature, musical, sport, and art activities. • Supporting milestones (rolling, crawling, walking, introduction of solids). • Excursions (museums, parks, gardens, story-time, farmers markets, Ceres). • Happy to capture special moments throughout the day 📷 to share with you (only if wanted of course). If you work from home or need downtime, I'm also available to care for your children at my child-safe, Montessori-inspired North Carlton terrace house. I'm comfortable with all pets (no allergies) and I have two half Devon Rex cats called Atlas & Sol. 🐾 I have a WWCC, and completed a Pediatric First Aid training course at The Royal Children's Hospital several years ago (planning to take again in July '25). Happy to contribute to the running of your household by cleaning up after play activities, meals etc... and other light housework (laundry, dishes and surfaces etc). I enjoy organising, so also very happy to help if there is an area or room that needs a fresh pair of eyes or special attention. As I don't have my full drivers licence, all excursions and pick-ups will be via walking or public transport, which I am well experienced navigating while with little ones. As my refrences can tell you. 📅 Feel free to reach out to me with any enquiries, including time/day requests not currently listed. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! 🌞🏳️‍🌈

Hi, I’m Jazzy! I’m have experience working with little people of all ages. I have been babysitting for over 10 years, as well as nannying, au pairing overseas, running home-schooling for local families during lockdown, tutoring primary school-aged students in English and maths, as well as 7 years experience as a gymnastics coach for all ages (babies up to adults)! I have a degree in psychology and I’m very interested in the way young minds work, learn and grow. I’m a big fan of getting out in fresh air, arts and crafts, colouring and reading! Ideally I’d be working for a local family one or two day a week ongoing. Please reach out if you think I could be a good fit for your family!

Hello! My name is Sara. I'm based in Melbourne, and I'm a Red Cross Certified babysitter with over 10+ years of experience caring for children of all ages--from infants to teens! Originally from the US & France, I've grown close with numerous families around the world, and have enjoyed every second of it. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi there! My name is Maia and my professional background is in primary teaching. I have 6+ years experience working as a classroom teacher, specialist teacher, casual relief teacher, art educator and program facilitator at a few art galleries in central Melbourne. I’ve been looking for some time to pursue some further study and working as a nanny to your lovely children will give me the flexibility needed to do that! I am very confident and comfortable around babies and toddlers also, having grown up the eldest daughter with 5 siblings!

I’ve cared for a diverse range of families including age/values/background. I own a car in Melbourne so am able to do drop offs and pick ups or go on little adventures/outings. I’m very comfortable with nights spent inside and winding down preparing for bed but am just as happy to venture outdoors and explore the day. Love going for walks in the park/garden while also love time inside watching movies/reading/playing games/making art. I love animals and am no stranger to mess or a chaotic environment! I absolutely love to bake and craft even in my own time so I’m happy to bake or meal prep if that is something the family would like. Whether baking is an activity I share with the family or an exciting surprise I bring to the table (no pun intended). I can easily adapt to the families lifestyle and quickly figure out what works best. I’m confident with any tasks thrown at me, especially if shown how the family likes things handled so I can fit into the household smoothly. I’m all for random but effective idiosyncrasies! I’m very patient and.I can adapt easily to new situations or new changes in a family’s life. I see myself as a generally calm person and don’t tend to panic if something goes awry.

Hi, I am Ava, I’m living on residence this year in Parkville for uni. I am studying at ACU in the first year of my degree, looking to go into pediatrics.

I am a 20-year-old currently studying Social Work at RMIT, with plans to further my studies in Primary Education. I have a genuine love for working with children of all ages and bring a calm, sensible, and nurturing energy to my care—while still knowing how to have plenty of fun! I have experience with casual babysitting, have worked at camps supporting boys aged 10–25, and have facilitated children’s programs in a previous role at an allied health clinic. I’m confident, patient, and able to manage a variety of needs and personalities. I’m also very comfortable with routines like playtime, bath and bedtime, and light household tasks. I live independently, so I’m responsible, mature for my age, and well-organised. I’m also a big animal lover—so happy to help in a household with pets! I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, caring, and fun environment for your children. My hourly rate is negotiable depending on the role and needs. I am looking for a role beginning end of year or starting next year.

Hi! I’m Isabel, but I usually go by Izzy. I’ve always loved working with kids and consider myself a kid at heart—playful, creative, and a little bit silly when the moment calls for it. At the same time, I know how to create a space where children feel safe, respected, and understood. In my free time, I enjoy reading, cooking, gardening and spending time outdoors in the sunshine. I have full availability, including during school holidays, and I’m excited for the opportunity to connect and help out! Love, Izzy. (Baby in profile pic is my gorgeous nephew!)
