Meet Emily: A nanny and babysitter in Melbourne, VIC

Hi families 👋 I’m Em

I’m a highly experienced nanny and household support worker based in Melbourne. I have over 20 years of professional childcare experience, caring for children from newborns through to teenagers, alongside being a mum to two school-aged children myself.

I genuinely love working with children and supporting families in a way that feels calm, practical, and nurturing. My approach is very hands-on — I don’t just “supervise,” I actively engage, support development, and help create a smooth, happy flow to the day.

I aim to be the kind of support that makes life feel easier for both children and parents.
