I'm a young and outgoing brazilian girl, aged 22. Im absolutely passionnate about children, I love what we can mutually teach each other on a daily basis. I like to renew and refresh my point of view and I truly believe that spending time with young minds can bring me that. Of course, I am conscious of the boundaries and limits that children need in order to fufill themselves, and I am perfectly capable of making them clear when it is necessary. To sum it up in a nutshell, I think that I understand children fully, which is why I wish to be a nanny.

Nicholas ~ Manly

To the adoring parent seeking a quality nanny;

Hello there, my name is Nicholas, but throughout our correspondence you can call me Nick. I have not long moved back down to Manly from the hinterland of the Mid North Coast where I was studying Permaculture and Sustainability and carrying out much needed renovations to my investment property. Please allow me to introduce myself and provide some insight into who I am, what I do and briefly outline my experience working with children.

As a young boy I helped out at a pre-school with my grandmother, and then later volunteered in the children’s ward at the Coffs Harbour Base Hospital. I soon began babysitting/nannying in high school, primarily for a professional couple Will and Heather to enable me to save and travel. Heather is a busy family law specialist and is quite active in the community. The boys, Jock and Angus, were just 6 months and 2 years of age respectively when I began taking care of them, and so they grew up considering me a family member of sorts, still inviting me to their eisteddfods, school plays and performances today. Whilst Angus and Jock were able to play and ‘be kids’, I developed a manner of relating to them such that we communicated maturely. This proved to be incredibly beneficial to Angus and Jock’s development, both now showing social skills and maturity beyond their years. It also meant that I was able to say ‘that’s enough’ and the boys would directly respond owing to the mutual respect we developed.

Over the years I kept a journal for Will and Heather; lyrical, comical, poetic and at times illustrative. Each evening when they returned from an event I presented them with an A4 booklet filled with stories, quotes and activities from the day, afternoon or evening. We’d put the kettle on and while the boys slept we would chuckle around the kitchen table over the things they’d come out with, queries they’d forwarded or comical things they had done. I have the collection safely stored away with photos and will present the package and tell some of the stories for the boys’ 21st birthdays. The boys had an inclination towards gaming and television but I preferred to engage them in other activities that would develop their coordination, motor skills, and creativity. When they were a little older I would occasionally meet the family at the beach and send Will and Heather off for some much needed time together. I would then take the boys with our little backpacks and a picnic on an adventure over the headlands, exploring, climbing, making up games with driftwood and collected items from the shore.

When I was last living in Manly in 2006 I worked as a ‘manny’ (male nanny) for Robyn, a single mother who is a Doctor/Naturopath and owns a busy practice on the northern beaches. Robyn was extremely run down at the time and was in need of support in the many facets of home life. I worked 4-5 hours each evening, Monday-Friday for Robyn for approximately 5-6 months, up until she showed strong signs of recovery and I left for Central America to travel for a year.

Robyn has three children who were at the time twelve, fifteen, and seventeen (or thereabouts) so didn’t require babysitting, but rather sound support, reliability and organising. I picked the kids up from school, cleaned the house, prepared meals for a very health conscious mother, designed, planted out and maintained the gardens, ran errands, washed and shopped and generally just filled the shoes of a … house husband… big brother… father…?

I am 29 years old, active, health conscious and spirited. To keep fit I like to swim, surf, free-dive, hike, take Pilates classes and ride my bike. I have studied at Griffith and Southern Cross Universities in the past, focusing primarily in the arts, film, photography, humanities and design. Growing up on 130 acres left me with quite a strong connection to the land and travels often led me to remote villages where I learnt more about self-sufficiency and further deepened a growing interest in sustainability. This I think is what led me to study Permaculture.

I have just recently graduated from Landscape Design and horticultural studies and have been working for a local company doing design, costing and estimating. After gaining further experience in this industry I intend on doing post grad studies in town planning and urban design and taking my interest in sustainability and design to a larger audience and begin to affect public space.

If you have any further questions or would like to arrange a time for me to come and meet your family you’re welcome to call at any time.

Warm Regards,
Nick.

P.S: I have done my St Johns first aid course as a part of the dive masters program, but I am interested in taking the refresher course prior to commencing work or on an ASAP basis.

Gaby ~ Manly

Hi, my name is Gaby (37) and I am a mum of 2 smart boys(3&6).

I am looking for an extra income doing work that is natural to me. I do it everyday with my sons and I love it.

I mainly look for night time babysitting and I would love to care for your treasure/s so you can enjoy your night out in peace and quiet. I also do night sitting if you want to book a night in town and have a break from those early mornings. :)

I am also available to do some daytime babysitting. Fri is a day when I care for my 3 year old so your little one would have someone to play with.

And Wed, Thr I am free to do occasional daytime work.

I am kind, loving & experienced.

I have babysat kids for years now and I cared for kids with allergies, breath-holding spells, sick children, babies,school kids, teenagers, you name it...

I am educated, well spoken, non smoker, mature, grown up. I would protect your child/ren in case of any emergency be it a fire, intruder, natural disaster...a mother's instinct reaction.

I know it can be hard especially for the little ones to be left with someone else then their mum but trust me, I know how to make them feel safe, loved and happy.

I can follow your already established routine or go with the flow. I can help with the homeworks, do arts & crafts, playtime,read books, sing songs, cook dinner, feed and bath, cuddle and settle them so they fall asleep safe and sound.

I am tidy, I always clean up after myself, pack toys away, tidy the kitchen, so when you come home you do not have to face the mess yourself.

I live in the area and am happy to drive anywhere from Mosman to Avalon.

I can provide references on request.

Please do not hesitate to ask me any questions, I will be happy to answer it.

Thank you
