Nannies in Western Melbourne, VIC

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.

Looking for: Full-time, Part-time, Casual Babysitting Hello parents, My name is Tracey, and I am a vibrant, energetic 54-year-old with a lifelong passion for working with children. From an early age, I discovered my love for caring for babies, toddlers, and young kids, starting as a babysitter at 13 in my hometown of Castlemaine. In my 20s, I worked in childcare centres before transitioning into a career as a professional singer, alongside raising two wonderful sons who are now 27 and 19. Over the years, I’ve remained deeply involved in caregiving—helping raise my nieces, babysitting for families, and working in aged care and disability support. For the past two years, I have been a regular babysitter for three children under the age of six, further strengthening my hands-on experience. My Approach to Childcare I strive to create a nurturing, fun, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and engaged. I believe in the importance of routine, ensuring children are well-rested and happy. I love incorporating creativity and learning into daily activities, whether through reading, music, arts and crafts, puzzles, or imaginative play. With my background in music, I enjoy singing lullabies, teaching songs, and use music as a calming tool. I also have a strong focus on health and well-being—I love cooking nutritious meals (I come from an Italian background and am confident in the kitchen!), and I encourage cleanliness and appropriate dressing for all weather conditions. Light household duties are absolutely fine, as I work best in a clean and organised space. Why Choose Me? ✔️ Over 40 years of childcare experience (personal and professional) ✔️ Background in aged care and disability support, specialising in dementia care ✔️ A warm, friendly, and adaptable personality—great with kids of all ages ✔️ Love for reading, singing, creative play, and making learning fun ✔️ Honest, reliable, and flexible with scheduling ✔️ Animal lover! Qualifications & Certifications Cert IV in Leisure and Health Diploma in Music Current Working with Children Check Police Check First Aid & Anaphylaxis Certificates References available upon request I would love to find a family where I feel welcome and can make a positive impact in your children’s lives. If you’re looking for a responsible, engaging, experienced mother and caring babysitter, I’d be delighted to chat further. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! Warm regards, Tracey

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.
