Tegan ~ South Yarra

Dear parents,
My name is Tegan and I am interested in either a baby sitting/ nanny position.
I currently live in South Yarra and am on intermission for a year from studies in my double degree of Nursing/Emergency Health (Paramedics).
I have an absolute passion for working with children. My goal career wise is to work as a midwife or in pediatrics.
Although I have no current references as a 'nanny/babysitter' outside my immediate networks, I have cared for children ages 1- 13 including nieces, nephews, and children of friends and am able to provide reference to clinical placements representing my level of care as a whole.
I have also worked as a Personal Care Assistant in an aged care setting enabling myself to well meet the needs of each person as an individual, including assisting with all aspects of daily living (bathing, meals).
Although I have worked in this slower paced environment, I have worked both energetically and passionately as a supervisor in a children's face painting business for over 2 years, gaining experience with working alongside children and their families.
I am currently studying childhood development with Uni of SA and will be able to tailor activities to suit you childs developmental stage that is both fun and educational.I am a quick learner, so I am great with picking up any schedules you may have for me. I'm more than happy to work house duties if the time permits!

I currently have a:
Fit2Work Police Check (Online)
Working With Children Card
Current First Aid Certificate
Clean drivers record
P2 (Green) Drivers License
Car accessible

Ann ~ South Yarra

I have grown up across four continents (USA; Arizona, North America; Vancouver, Asia; Singapore and Australia; Canberra) in the last three decades.

I come from a wonderful family of three children. Our parents taught us the value of education and strong moral values from a very young age. We learned to take care of each other and household duties with joy. Growing up, my mother was a nanny and I learnt from a young age on the "how-tos" of managing children, educating them, cooking, cleaning, and learning to be dependable, safe, and responsible. Before leaving Singapore a month ago, I helped take care of my nephew (12 months) in the day when I was not at work and during his overnight stays.

I received my BA in Business Administration in 2006 and built a successful career as a Marketing Communications Manager for 6 years. This year, I decided to make a mid-career change towards being an early childhood teacher because of a life-changing volunteer experience I had while on vacation in India in 2011.

Other information about me: I have my "Working With Children" check, I am in the midst of getting first aid training, I don't have any official nanny experience but I have worked in a childcare setting, in a sunday school setting. In addition, I love dogs, the bigger the better!

I also love to eat I can eat any kind of food and also love to laugh, which explains why my favorite type of movie is the hilarious romantic comedy. I love learning about new cultures and different ways of life, visit new places and meet new people, and love to do activities and sports. I always go to swimming and jogging.

I have had many enjoyable experiences with children. For example, when I was young, I helped my aunt to take care of my cousins a lot since he was infant. After, I graduated and go back home in Ayutthaya. I took care of my little neighbors. JaJa and NeNe are cousins together. NeNe is 1.10 year old and JaJa is 1.5 year old in currently. The two babies are very energetic, friendly and nice. Moreover, I used to be an assistant at the kindergarten. This place has 2 – 5 years old children and three teachers. All children call me “Teacher”. There were more funny times. I enjoyed playing with them so much. I didn’t get only childcare experience here but also made a friendships with all the people at this kindergarten.

I used to be Aupair in USA few month. The kids and I got along well with each other. I took care of 3 kids, a good boy Cameron (9 years old), a lovely girl Larkyn (19 months old) and a baby Ella (2 months old) I really have very great time with Cameron and his friends when they stay over at our house and always go to my room. We enjoy playing Hockey every day after back home from school, practice hard for next Cam's Baseball match. Watching Baseball game together.
Becoming an Au Pair is an exciting opportunity for me to get a new experience, have a great time and fun with host children, accompany and take them to activities they like and join them, share a good things together, to be a part of host's family and to learn about new culture and to improve my English.

P.S. I already received training in CPR and First Aid when I was an Au Pair in USA.

Warmest regards,
Pook

Danielle ~ South Yarra

My name is Danielle Matthews, and I am looking for occasional weekend employment.

About me:

I was born in Sydney in 1988.
When I was 2, my family and I moved to Hong Kong for 4.5 Years. After this, we move to Dubai, UAE. My parents are still over in Dubai however my sister and I came back to Sydney in 2000 at attended boarding school.
I was at boarding school for 7 years, PLC Pymble (SYDNEY, NSW). Whilst I was at boarding school I gained a lot of my independence having to wash and look after myself. In my final year, I was elected to be captain of my boarding house. This captaincy came with many responsibilities including; look after the year seven and year six girls, helping with homework, putting them to bed and comforting when they were homesick.
Once I finished school (end of 2006) I moved into my sister’s place in Balmain, Sydney.
Whilst I attended Macquarie University, I was nannying part-time.
At Macquarie, I completed a bachelor of International Business, and a Diploma of French.

Whilst I was a nanny, I looked after a few different families which allowed me to experience different routines, personalities, and I am comfortable with all age groups as I have had experience with new born up to 12 years of age.
Whilst I was a nanny, I was fulfilling duties such as; night time babysitting, dropping and picking the children from school/pre-school, helping with homework, creating activities for the children during the holidays, bath time, cooking and feeding and light housework chores.


Last year I was asked to move down to Melbourne. After working for a year with the company I have decided to head back to further study. I will be starting my Masters in Supply Chain & Logistic Management this week.
At this stage I am only looking for some casual babysitting, whilst I get comfortable with University and my work load.

I have a NSW driver's license. I have not transferred my license to a Victorian License as I have not needed to drive anywhere. I was not planning on transferring my license as I ride my push bike everywhere, and since I am centrally located, plus I do not have a car in Melbourne, I have not needed to drive.
I have fulfilled Duke of Edinburgh Bronze, and Silver level of First Aid. I was also the first aid officer at my previous work. I have looked after children whom have had severe nut allergies where I was responsible to carry around an EpiPen.
I have a Clear Police Record - I needed to have a background check for a visa to France when I studied there in 2008. I have not requested a recent police record however I am able to do so. I believe my old Police Check will be in Sydney, so i will ask for my sister to scan it through to me.

I have a CV/Resume that I am able to send to you if you’re interested in learning more about me.

- Mother of 3 whom I nannyied for. (Natasha is away at the moment, so I am waiting to hear back before I can pass on her number, however Rebecca is more than happy to talk to any future babysitting family)

I am very flexible and the hourly rate can be determined by yourselves I am very easy going. I am more looking for the enjoyment of being surrounded by smaller kids again. I am really active! Recently ran the Honolulu Marathon so I hope my age doesn't matter:)

Even if it is a trial please consider me as your children's babysitter! The pay is easily negotiable! I am just interested in caring for younger children again.

p.s i love dogs!

Alana ~ South Yarra

My first experience with children was as an English speaking babysitter to a 3 and 5 year old whilst I was living in France on a University Exchange. My main responsibility was to incorporate practical & fun ways of teaching them basic English, however I also supervised meals & undertook basic care duties.

During the final year of my undergraduate degree I was an after-school carer to a family of 4 children, aged 7 to 14. My primary duties were to collect the youngest two from school, supervise homework & after-school activities & dinner preparation & supervision.

On completing my undergraduate studies I worked in London for two years. Upon my return to Australia I decided to apply for graduate medicine. This process took well over a year, & during this time I worked 4 days a week as a nanny for various families across Melbourne. This included two mornings a week with 2yo identical twins, two full days with a 4yo and 2yo siblings, and one afternoon with a family of 4 boys aged 5 to 12.

I am now in my final year of graduate medicine. Last year I returned from Sydney to complete my clinical rotations in Melbourne. I have reestablished my working relationship with many of these families, as well as commenced some new relationships with other families in Melbourne.

I have thoroughly enjoyed all of my roles as a nanny/babysitter as they have been simultaneously challenging and rewarding. I have particularly enjoyed developing excellent relationships with the families I worked for, and still communicate with many of them all on a regular basis.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have, or if you would like to further discuss my availability.

I am an outgoing person, and have plenty of fun and interactive games up my sleeve that children will enjoy. During my year as a nanny I also developed a 'craft box' that was very popular with all of the children I cared for. I am an avid reader, still in posession of many of my favourite books from childhood, and am always keen to encourage children to read more! Finally, I love to bake - cakes, cookies, slices - and the children I have looked after have always thoroughly enjoyed getting their hands dirty and joining in...and cleaning up!

Chloe ~ South Yarra

I am an ambitious, hardworking and vibrant 23 year old female with a passion for organisation, teaching and looking after children. Raised in Switzerland and Germany, I am fortunate to have grown up bilingual and discovered my passion for languages at a very young age. At the age of sixteen I went to boarding school in England to complete my A levels where I discovered my love for the English language and have since completed a Bachelor Degree in Dramatic Art at the Victorian College of the Arts. Living and studying around the world has broadened my horizons and helped me to strengthen my communication, teamwork and problem solving skills.

Having grown up with three brothers I have had a first hand understanding of siblings relationships that I have been able to draw upon when working as a babysitter for families abroad and in Melbourne. I have had the opportunity of taking care of children between the ages of 8 months to 12 years and have been gifted to build strong relationships with families to date.

Stephanie ~ South Yarra

My name is Stephanie and I am 20 years of age.
I come from a wonderful family of three children. Our parents taught us the value of education and strong moral values from a very young age. We learned to take care of each other and household duties with joy. When I wasn't fulfilling family responsibilities, I often babysat other children in our neighbourhood. These children ranged from approximately 3 years +.
I am not only responsible, but I know how to have a good time with children through positive and creative recreational activities (I love going to the park, playing games, bike rides or anything else their little imaginations come up with). In short, any activity done in the company of children is exciting and enjoyable for me.

** I am looking for casual/part time work. I am currently studying, however my hours and days are fairly flexible and I do indeed have my licence/own a car.

**Non-smoker! (References can be given upon request)

Look forward to hearing from you!
Thank you :-)

Elle ~ South Yarra

I have been a babysitter since I was thirteen. I have always enjoyed working with children because I feel it is a gratifying experience to teach them and to watch them develop into their own person. For about five years I was a part time nanny for a family with three children. I was with them from when their first child was fifteen months, and through the births of both their second and third. I have had plenty of experience with children of all ages, from zero to twelve. Ideally I am looking for some occasional babysitting while I complete my hairdressing apprenticeship. I am happy to negotiate both with hourly rates and duties.

Helena ~ South Yarra

I am hard working, conscientious and willing to learn and improve. I enjoy working with children and consider myself to be empathetic, caring and kind. I hope that I will be able to have a good connection with the parents and children and will be able to provide a nice environment. I will instill the importance of play in a safe environment whilst making sure the child does not misbehave. I will listen carefully to the instructions of the parents and keep to their instructions to a tee.
