Nannies in NSW, port macquarie

Keryn ~ Port Macquarie

Hello my name is Keryn. I am a 27 year old registered nurse/paramedic. I have for the past few years been working as a nurse in Tamworth, NSW. My partner has been transferred to Port Macquarie for work and I am hoping for the opportunity to work with children again. Before attending university I obtained my certificate III in children's studies and worked in a district preschool with 3, 4 and 5 year olds. I also babysat children from newborn to 13 year olds. I completed 12 months of an early childhood degree before completing my nursing and paramedic degrees. Whilst studying I was a nanny for two boys aged 9 and 11. I also babysat casually for a few families with children aged 3 months to 10 years old. I have also worked with children and people with disabilities and as a nurse have cared for people of all varying ages.

I am able to and enjoy cooking, cleaning, arts and crafts, sports, reading, swimming and walking. I was brought up on a cattle farm in Orange, NSW and love the outdoors and am hard working, willing to learn and a fast learner.

I haven't included a rate of pay as I think it important for the family I am employed by to be involved in determining that figure.

dianne ~ Port Macquarie

I am a mature mother of two school age children. I have cared for two 3 year old boys at separate times, both are now at daycare & school. I am available for day or evening at short notice.
I have cared for baby boy, at short notice. Which was most enjoyable. Over the past few months I have babysat a 2 half yr old girl several times, which also included a sleep over. We read books & made lots of play dough ice creams. We had fun! In February the family added a baby brother for their little girl. I have had the honor of also caring for him, while mum & dad enjoyed a few hours out to celebrate their anniversary. Can't wait to see how much he has grown next I see him.
Currently caring for an 11yr old boy on casual basis.
I have added a new family with 2 children (nearly 1 & 2 & half) to my casual sitting. They are cute & lots of fun.
Looking for more casual positions.

Lorna ~ Port Macquarie

Hello Parents,
My name is Lorna. As I am not sure how parents access the nanny profiles I have pasted mine in here for your perusal.

I have been a Nanny/Babysitter for over twenty years. It has been my pleasure to nurture many families of children caring for bruised knees to broken hearts, nappies to nightclubs including nursing crying teething babies, potty training toddlers, making learning into playtime for pre-schoolers, pacify primary schoolers and navigated the world of tortured teenagers.
I have cared for families with one child and up to five children. One of my families had four boys one with Aspersers and one with Autism which I handled for 10 years about four days each five weeks plus a few multi-weeks stays whilst the parents went overseas.
My live-in positions have taken me to Japan and New Zealand plus Port Douglas and other parts of Australia.
I consider children to be your most precious possession and care for them as if they were my own family.
Helping out with the housework, laundry, ironing and cooking is not a problem; however I am not offering my services as a housekeeper.
I love caring for children of all ages and they like being around me.
I am a very young at heart, strong, fit and healthy.

OTHER SKILLS:
I consider my "skills" are my ability to help your children learn about life, keep them happy and make sure they have fun along the way.
I have a lifetime of experience! I am well educated with a diploma in business/computers and a common sense approach to life.

I offer positions for children aged 6weeks to 12years of age.

I feel that children need the structure of routine activities and I have developed a daily routine plan which is based upon The Early Years Learning Framework for Australia BELONGING, BEING & BECOMING. I implement activities from my program to support individual children's strengths and encourage them to learn and expand in different areas.

My aim in working with Children is to provide a safe, supportive and nurturing environment allowing children to learn and play while still having the security of an "at home" atmosphere.

I complete a Weekly Book and have this displayed in my service. This allows you a look at what your child has done during their time in care, and provides you the opportunity to ask questions or add comments. I also gather information - artworks and record observations on each individual child and present that to the families at the end of year.

Thank You! :)

Jessica ~ Port Macquarie

Hi there!
I have worked in a long day care setting for the past 10 years - since completing my Certificate 3 in Children's Services - and have been a regular babysitter for various families over the past 15 years.
I have worked with children from the age of 6 weeks to 7 years, and also have a 15 year old sister and 18 year old brother who I frequently cared for as they were growing up, including over nighters.
I have always enjoyed spending my time with children - helping them to develop, learn through fun experiences, and grow into mini adults. In my time at centres I have set programs to assist in children's development and planned and implemented activities to encourage their skills. I have also worked with children with varying levels of disabilities in my years and am confident in caring for all children of all ages
I moved to Port Macquarie from Sydney recently and I am available for occasional babysitting and weekend overnighters.
In 2011 I took on a nanny role twice, as two different families I regularly baby sit for went over seas. Both families had two children and were between the ages of 14 months and 5 years. During this time I was doing drop off and pick up for all children, and took them to after school activities etc.

I am a non smoker, hold a current Senior First Aid certificate, full driver's licence, and have my own car.
