My name is Laura Bartlett, I am 26 years old. I come from a small country town on the border of NSW and VIC. I have a passion for working with children, coming from a big family at home I have always cared for and babysat my young cousins from new-born to all ages. I have recently enrolled in early childhood education to begin my future career working in kindergartens and preschools. I have had 2 jobs previously as a private nanny. While I was living back home in the country I worked for a family as their private nanny. Matt the Father of the children employed me to care for his 2 children aged 4 - 6. I regretfully had to give up this position due to moving to Melbourne. Since moving to Melbourne I worked as a private nanny for a lovely family, Chantelle the mother of the children employed me to care for their 4 children aged 12 months, 3, 6 and 8 years old. I am currently seeking a future Nannying role in Melbourne to continue my passion for working with babies and children. I am skilled in safe use of car seats, preparing food and safe eating, sleeping routines, caring for newborns, helping with homework, medications and first aid, morning and evening routines. I am more than willing and capable to help you around the house with any chores or jobs you may need such as dishes, laundry and washing, housekeeping duties, or any preparation needed to help free up your time to spend with your family

Hey families, My name is Marnie, and I'm 35, and I have over 19 years of experience in teaching, childcare and nannying and find these roles both professionally rewarding as well as consistent with my personal values. In addition, I have a Bachelor of Education (Primary), Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, and a Certificate 3 in Children's Services. Over the past four years, I have been a classroom teacher at a primary school in Brighton East. My role as a teacher has encompassed various aspects of children’s academic, social, and emotional growth. Being a teacher is incredibly rewarding. Not only do you see students’ growth and progress academically, but you can build connections, make a meaningful difference and leave a long-lasting impact on these students' lives. I have a deep understanding of child development, learning styles, and age-appropriate activities. This knowledge allowed me to create engaging and educational experiences for children in my care. I have experience in managing various classrooms and working with diverse groups of students honing my ability to handle different behaviours and adapt to individual needs, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for the children I care for. But there is one thing I truly miss, caring for children in their home. Being that person in a household who is spreading kindness, care, and support. Before becoming a primary school teacher, I was a nanny. I have worked for several families within Australia and internationally (USA and Canada). My responsibilities included caring for newborn twins, and older children, following routines (including sleep patterns, feeding, and bathing), assisting with household cleaning, driving children to and from after-school activities, assisting with homework, and maintaining close communication with parents. Whilst I was studying for my Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, where I was successful in gaining a scholarship through Swinburne University of Technology, to go to Vietnam. During this visit, I was volunteering in Hanoi, teaching English to prep-aged children. It was a fantastic experience and extended my childcare experience, as well as providing learning experiences in another culture, and participating in their usual day-to-day life activities. Prior to this experience, I was a nanny in America. This position involved living-in with a family in New Jersey, USA where I cared for their two children (girls now aged 4 and 8). Living full-time in the family house meant that it was important that my approach and behaviours aligned with the rules and principles of the family. I've also taken on additional roles working with children, such as a Ski Instructor at Mt Buller Ski Resort and an Assistant Educator at Explorer’s Early Learning Centre. These positions showcase my proficiency and professionalism in the field. I have a mature, responsible, and professional way of caring for children and I pride myself on creating a positive, happy environment in which children can thrive. As I'm a primary school teacher, I would not be able to start exactly at 3:30 pm, as that's when our school day ends. However, depending on where you're located, I could get there by 3:45-4:00 pm on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. We have meetings on Mondays and Tuesdays, so I wouldn't be able to start until 5:00 pm.

Hey I’m Sophie! I’m 20! and currently studying a Diploma in Health Science (Naturopathy). I have over 4 years of experience caring for kids aged 1 to 13 Alongside babysitting, I’ve coached junior lifesaving, worked with NDIS surf programs, and supported a few lovely families over the years. I’m an easy going, kind and caring person who loves creating a fun and safe space for kids. I really value building a genuine connection with each child and making sure they feel happy and supported. I enjoy spending time outdoors, especially at the beach or going for walks. I’m happy to help with school pick ups, light cooking, tidying and other household support. I also have my Working With Children Check, First Aid, Bronze Medellin and CPR. I’d love the chance to care for your family! Sophie 🤍

I'm an experienced nanny with a calm, professional approach. I recently completed 9 months with a family who had twin boys. I worked with them from when the boys were 6 weeks old. The family moved interstate and the role came to a natural end. I have since started nannying with a family in Malvern and work Thursdays and Fridays but could potentially be free on Monday and/or Wednesday for a local role in Brighton. The current family I am working with have a 3 year old and a 15 month old. Apart from my current experience, I worked both as a live-in and live-out nanny in the UK for 2 years, where I formed close, lasting relationships with the families and children in my care. The children ranged from 9 months to 4 years old. I've also raised two children of my own, who are now young adults. Having been a working parent myself, I understand first-hand how much it matters to have a nanny who is reliable, consistent, and works in genuine partnership with the family. I take routines and parenting preferences seriously and bring both warmth and good judgment to everything I do. Earlier in my career I worked in complex HR roles, which has given me strong communication skills, discretion, and the ability to handle whatever a day throws at me with a level head. I have chosen to return to nannying because I genuinely enjoy working with children and supporting families. I hold a current Working with Children Check, a completed police check, up-to-date first aid certification, and am happy to provide references. We share our home with a border collie/golden retriever cross and a cat, so I'm very comfortable around pets and completely at ease in homes where animals are part of the family.

Hi, I'm Sophia! I have babysitting experience alongside several years in customer-facing and caregiving roles. I've just finished my Juris Doctor at Monash University, and I spent five years volunteering with Riding for the Disabled Victoria, supporting riders with physical and intellectual disabilities. I've also worked in hospitality for years, so I'm used to staying calm, organised and cheerful even when things get busy. I'm reliable, patient and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids. Outside of babysitting, I love horse riding, running and learning languages. I also speak some Mandarin and French!

Hi there, my name is Charlotte. I am a 19 year old, second year university student.

I'm a friendly, bubbly, enthusiastic, and empathetic babysitter with over 4 years of experience caring for children of all ages, from as young as 9 months to teenagers. I am comfortable with pets, preparing meals & school lunch boxes, chores, and even helping with homework. As a university student, I'm available to provide reliable childcare at your home. I'd be delighted to meet your family and learn more about your needs.

Hello, I am a Canadian living in Melbourne for almost 9 years. I have an athletic background as I represented my country in field hockey since a young age. I travelled and lived in many countries where I was an Aupair, coach and tutor and eventually committing full time to nannying. The last two years I was living in France to improve my French language skills while also working for families around France. I have worked with many families from all over the world and with children from the age of 6 months to 13 years. I have also experience working with UHNWF and fully staffed households for private families in Europe and on yachts. I have a high standard for my work with children and I aim to provide the utmost care for them. Please be advised my weekend rates are higher than weekday rates.
