Susannah ~ Acton

Hi I'm Susie. I'm currently a first year Law and Commerce student at The Australian National University but at the moment my study schedule isn't too hectic. I love kids and would love to be able to do some baby sitting work in my time off. Over the past few years I've done the odd baby sitting job (for aunties, neighbours, friends and the family I lived with in my year abroad in Italy) but nothing on a more regular / formal basis. Each time I've really enjoyed it and now that I have the time I'm interested in getting more experience. I also have experience umpiring children's netball. I have a natural affinity with children and have really enjoyed working with them in the past. I would be more than happy to cook healthy meals, do light housework and help with homework or tutoring. Please feel free to contact me! Thanks!

Seher (Sara) ~ Acton

I am a mature-aged female graduate student looking for suitable part-time employment in order to save my scholarship funding. I have had years of personal experience in babysitting/childcare, have qualifications in first aid, and have been responsible for raising one gorgeous girl with ADD for more than two years.

I absolutely adore children, have an abundance of patience, am very kind and dedicated, and believe all children are intelligent and fast learning.

I am also punctual, reliable and committed as I understand the importance of this for parents' peace of mind. I was absent in my previous employment for only two days in the entire year (only because I did not want to spread my cold/flu).

I was - previous to graduate studies - beginning a Graduate Diploma in Primary Education but left half way due to moving overseas (Denmark). I studied further studies at Copenhagen University and have returned to begin a PhD, but I am completing the final semester online and have had some teacher-training in primary schools. I will be a qualified primary school teacher by 2013.

I do not own a car as I am originally from Melbourne and decided to do without one whilst in Canberra, therefore if you have grown children I require to collect from school, I am more than happy to take public transport together. Otherwise, if you require my services only at home, I am more than capable of coming and leaving without the use of a vehicle.

I have previous had work experience in Daycare centres and Primary Schools and am excellent with children.
I am fun and love to play games, I am easy going but am not afraid to tell a child no. I am the master at the 'puppy-dog eyes' and therefore they have no effect on me what-so-ever.
I am smart with a love of reading and my previous jobs as a tutor have given me the experience required to help children with their homework.
