Nannies in West Melbourne, VIC

*Available for full days in first week of July school holidays* Hello, I am a fully insured, qualified and experienced early childhood and primary school educator. In 2024 I worked at an outback station as a live-in governess teaching and caring for three children under 6 years old full-time. I am skilled at creating imaginative play-based and physical activities for children and helping build their self-confidence and resilience. I believe that being outside and interacting with nature and the community is an important part of childhood development (as is routine and healthy food!)

Hi! I'm Rose, I've just graduated from Melbourne University with a degree in Fine Arts. I've been working in the childcare industry for many years now, having nannied and babysat since I was in high school. My work with children has also allowed me to spend a year as a gymnastics coach at Footscray. My experience in these areas means I'm ready to help in all areas of household chores and activities. I can help prepare meals for the family and tend to laundry and other cleaning needs. I also have my license and would be able to do pick up and drop offs, as well as extracurriculars. Having just completed a degree in a creative field I would love to have the opportunity to create engaging outlets using these skill-set, as well as help with homework needs.

I am an easy-going, friendly and trust worthy individual, that loves to interact build reliable relationships with families. I have over10 years on and off experience with nannying. Currently working as a part-time Acupuncturist in the area of Fertility, Pregnancy and Paediatrics, looking for rewarding work to support my available days not treating.

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

I’m a 23 year old Uni student currently studying Visual Arts. I really enjoy doing arts and crafts with kids as I think it’s such a fun way to connect and share creativity. In my own time, I love baking, crocheting, and getting lost in a good book. I find a lot of joy in simple, hands-on things that let me slow down and express myself. I have experience nannying and babysitting children anywhere from 4 to 14 years old.

I am Ayelén Rodríguez, I am 37 years old and I have more than ten years of experience in art education with children. Currently in Melbourne I am working in the care of a two year old child, as a support worker with an elderly person and giving art workshops for a company called Art-Ish. Throughout my career I was dedicated to leading educational teams in different museums, creating educational content for children and diverse audiences, with an inclusive and accessible perspective. I came to Australia on a study visa which I recently upgraded for three years to study a Diploma in Community Services. I do not have a certificate in childcare yet, but I am more than willing to obtain one if it is important to any family. Personally, because of my artistic background, I have many playful and pedagogical strategies to work with children and I love to go outdoors, to parks and museums and even to play sports.

I am an excellent babysitter. In my family, all my cousins used to give their children to me whenever they were busy or had something else to attend to. And I can say with pride that I can handle babies. Regardless of their age, I treat them as if they were my child. If my job includes cooking for the babies, I will do that with so much care, and I will feed them. At the end, I can say that, dear parents, you can feel relaxed if your baby is with me.

My name is Erika. I'm 36 years old. I am an illustrator, visual artist, and graphic designer. My background is in Mexico; I am funny, creative, happy, and active. I am also a fan of literature, cooking, and the arts. I love working with children. Back in Mexico, I was the Art director in charge of the children's Pavilion at the International Book Fair of Guadalajara. My work involved teaching art to kids and creating a suitable pavilion for them and their parents; my team and I made the Pavilion following standard safe procedures and incorporating creativity into it. I have worked as a nanny and have experience with different age groups. I have been working with children in Melbourne since 2022. I started with a family of two unique children (3 and 5 years old). I have been working with them for 3 years; I am still with them on Thursdays. You are more than welcome to contact me and ask for references. I'm looking to engage with a new family and start working for you two days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I would also be happy to teach them art too.

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.
