Nannies in Kensington, VIC

Hi there! 👋 I’m Marielena, and I speak Spanish/English. Living in Kensington, I’m looking for casual babysitting jobs. I really enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, or just keeping them safe and happy while you’re out. I’m responsible, friendly, and easygoing. I can also help out with simple meals, bedtime routines, and light tidy-up if needed. I’m available during the mornings, weekends and happy to chat more if you’d like to know about me. 💫 Looking forward to meeting some lovely families

Hello hello! My name is Annie. I’m a 23 year old student studying biomedical science at Deakin University. I have plenty of experience with working with kids in both professional childcare environments and private babysitting. I have experience with newborns and babies and am trained in first aid. I would describe myself as friendly, outgoing, mature, honest & reliable. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! I currently look after a few families however my calendar has opened for a new family in 2025. I commit to long hour and long term commitment for the year with all of my families. It's important. Currently I cover ages 8 months, 12 months, 2.5 years, 4.5 years and 9 & 11 years olds. I understand the variety of changing developments in children and adapt to these needs. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my entire life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old and up until now as a professional nanny for parents who are doctors, solicitors, engineers, school teachers, marketing specialist and even a CEO. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with human development, of which I have covered extensively. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress and anxiety is about the energy from the nanny/babysitter. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age carer can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I follow routines and set boundaries, (initiated from the parents) for all children because it creates security and trust with them. I participate in both home and outdoor activities and excursions. I can drive my own car (petrol charges incur) or use any parents' cars. I cover household cleaning (light house work: all things kids mess, upkeep where possible in the laundry area, keep kitchen clean) to take the burden away from parents so they can come home to a cleaner environment than perhaps they left it. This is always discussed in detail for any family because I am not a 'house cleaner' I am a Nanny. I am extremely reliable and punctual to enable all parents to relax knowing I will always be there for them. I look forward to hearing from you. Nanny Clare
