Gayle ~ Hawthorn

Dear parents my name is Gayle a mature aged very active lady. I am also a mum to 3 adults who have left home making lives of their own. 2 daughters and one son Jusin, a zooligist 30, his forte the Cheetah, renee 28 a part time model and teacher, and Jen our baby at 26 not long out of University.

This really has prompted me to fill in the hours doing what I do best and feeling I am doing something ever so Worthwhile looking after children cooking, and a general housekeeping. I am experienced in all 3 and have details of referees should they be required.

My number one priorty is always the children over any other requirements however I come with years of daily experience in all of these 3 areas and both pace myself as well as map my daily chores with the very best in care to the children whom I have looked after.
I am quiet an organized person generally, so I can offer the best in child care with cooking at least incorporated into my daily routine. I elected years ago with my husband that my career at the time with the airlines be put on the back burner while my husband climbed the corporate ladder. As a result I have been but a mum a stay at home one at that, but have not one regret after all these years. The children have grown to be stable confident and happy secure adults as a result.

My husband was away up to 9 months of every year from as early as 1981 when our son was but 6 months old.
I now find I have A lot of time on my hands now the family have moved on making important decisions in their own life. I feel I could make somewhat a difference possibly to all mums Dads by taking sole care of your children something I am very capable of doing and allowing you a little time out for yourself or making it that much easier after a hard days work possibly at the Office.

I am also at my age though not ancient by any stretch of the imagination that my work what I previously conteplated Law all those years back with loads of study expected in the years to follow, are now something of the past. I therefore realise my career opportunities are limited sadly, however having said that being realistic, house keeping duties, Cooking and Looking after your little ones are also important roles. I have worked both for a c.e.o. his wife with their 4 boys 3 who are triplets though they are but 11 years of age and their younger brother.
My duties were really laundering cooking and watching over the boys while mum and dad had a night out.y I worked but 2 mornings only in Parkville looking after and attending to both home management chores as well as looking after the children 16 weeks and 3 years of age.
I now realise that I would like to find other work to build my hours up though my hours will be shortened to 4 -5 hours a week so I need to find another position.
I have looked after a little man for 3 years and basically while taking instruction from his mum I basically felt as though I was part of their family and with brandon then 7 years old I took him and bought him home from school prepared a snack, clothes were changed and study homework time was undertaken no matter how little he had, house was cleaned over a period of time and dinner was prepared.
I helped him I with his study where I could, but he was generally very much brighter certainly smarter than his nanny.

We had a lovely time where at times we would go out possibly to a zoo in school holiday period take in a movie possibly with plenty of popcorn, or simply explored as boys love hoping to find something that moved anything, even a wriggly such as a worm or millipede with what I have been told have 100 legs. There is usually great excitement. for the young men of tomorrow.

Girls on the other hand would scream but curiousity would get the better of them and they would have to hide their terror from the boys and have a quick look. Girls love dressing up changing their clothes and being girly loving all the pretty things in life .
The pretty clothes the dollies the makeup but something I have realised that the boys and the girls love the idea of helping mums dads and even the nanny to help in the kitchen with making a meal or a snack. They love the idea of doing something special for mum dad and for their sisters and brothers even if it is only licking the bowl after the cake has been iced they feel very important as they are.

I will look after all children as if my own and would treat them well giving them the respect they so deserve with their well being always paramount to all else. Kiddies for some unknown reason have a tendancy to warm to me and the only reason for this i believe is that Im gentle and have been told more than not. I am non threatening to any child and would treat them with the respect they so deserve.

I am sincere and a very real person not perfect but real and honest. I value both openess and honesty, I feel that it is so important for you to know as a parent, or parents who exactly you have employed and to a certain degree what makes them tick and that in itself hopefully can put any worried minds at ease. It also makes you feel that much more confident that you can go out knowing that all will be just as it was when you left. While this is not a brief statement of myself it is but one that allows you the reader to gauge a little about me and whether I can make life a little easier possibily for your family..


I can cook and bake and am passionate about food having catered for family and business functions over the years.
I am also at home amid the steam pots and pans and with the freshest of ingrediants before me in what tends to be one noisy kitchen.
Certainly can cook our child healthy meals to your requirements if so required. I have been working for a director from Canterbury a c.e.o. his wife and their 4 boys 3 whom are triplets and at the moment I had been working work but only for a few hours for a young professional couple in Parkville.
They have 2 children a 3 year old little man and a 15 week old daughter but they have already located so I am looking now for a new family.I am willing to travel further should that be required and to make things somewhat easier all around I have family who live in Hawthorn and kew so quiet happy to move closer should a position that is looking
for help on a long term basis ever be offered.

Kate ~ Hawthorn

Hi! I am looking to work casually or on a part-time basis, as a nanny/ babysitter while I study at University full-time (studying a Diploma of Education in Primary teaching). I have gained invaluable experience through 11 years of babysitting and have worked as a nanny full time for a period of eight months. The children I cared for were aged 11, 5 and 1 respectively. In this role I was required to organise dinner for the children, pick them up from school, take them to after school activities, entertain them while at home, help with home work and ensure the baby was always well cared for. I love interacting with children and I feel I have the right amount of energy and creativity to make it an enjoyable experience for your children as well. In year 10 I did work experience assisting the Grade one teacher at Ballarat and Clarendon College Junior school. I was often responsible for keeping the class engaged and well-behaved and although this was challenging I found it to be a rewarding experience. I am caring, responsible adult with a strong interest in entertaining and looking after children. If you would like a reference for any of my previous nannying or babysitting jobs please do not hesitate to ask! Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to hearing from you!
Kind regards,
Kate Ducardus

Kate ~ Hawthorn

Hello there,

Im a 26 year old English girl currently in Australia on a 12 months working holiday visa seeking work as a nanny.

I am a fully qullified teacher and whilst nannying is not my profession back home I have several years of experience working with children ranging from ages 1 to 17 on a professional, volunteer and personal level.

I have previously worked with young children in nurserys and reception classes throughout England and throughly enjoyed my time there.

In addition to this I worked as a volunteer reader with a registered charity helping children of all ages from underpriveleged backgrounds to enhance their literacy and social skills.

More recently I have taught and worked with children between the ages of 11 to 17 in a secondary school/college.

I love my teaching job and working with children and young people and feel that working as a nanny in a foreign envirnonment would be a fantastic and exciting opportunity to continue to work with children on a completely different and more personal level.

I am a kind, caring and compassionate person and feel that I am able to develop a great rapport with children.

I'm fit and healthy, energetic and creative, so having fun with your children after school(and of course helping them with homework!)will be an absolute pleasure.

I also love animals, so working with them will be a great bonus.

I am currently living in the Hawthorn area and whilst I do not have my own transportation I do have my UK driving licence with me and I am willing to drive any available vehicles should this be required as part of my role.

I look forward to hearing from you

Kate :-)
