Tori ~ Brighton

Hi, I'm Tori Etherington, a friendly and experienced nanny and babysitter. I believe that having a babysitter should be a "treat" for your children and I endeavour to ensure your children really enjoy the time they spend with me. I pride myself on being reliable, responsible and honest, and have an understanding of how much families’ depend on their nanny or babysitter. I have a wealth of experience in terms of working with children; I have been nannying for 4 years and babysitting for 6. I have also worked in other jobs such as ballet teaching, lifesaving, as a fairy for children's parties, a manager at a children's toy shop and in a children’s clothing store! I have worked with all ages, from newborns to teenagers. I am hoping to work with children as an educational psychologist, but I am currently looking for temporary work from February to May, before I go away to work and volunteer with children in the United Kingdom. This means I have plenty of availability and would be happy to work on a as-needed basis. My situation might particularly suit families with newborns or children who need care over the April holidays or just an extra day of help here and there! Plenty of evening availability for night time babysitting too! I have extensive first aid qualifications which I am continually building upon; including EPIPEN, level 2 first aid, asthma management, and more. I have a recent police check and "working with children" card. And, most importantly, I LOVE KIDS! Over the years I have developed great relationships with the families I work for. Please feel free to contact me anytime- I will respond to all emails :)

Hi Are you feeling exhausted and not able to cope I would love to give you an extra hand. I am an experienced nanny who has cared for newborns through to young teenagers. I am currently available various days during the week and would be willing to help out with a
mum needing some time out or an extra hand around the home. I am happy to just work for a couple of weeks to help ease the burden whether you have a newborn, busy toddlers or a large family. I understand that someone

I love caring for young children as we seem to have heaps of fun either playing at the park, running around in the backyard or just sitting quietly reading loads of books. Currently I am caring for a family with 3 children 9,5 and a 1 year old two afternoons a week. I am also looking after a young baby two mornings a week. I am a caring and responsible mature person who prepared to carry out
everyday chores being shopping, cooking, washing, driving the children where necessary and tidying the house (of course there are many more). I have had loads of experience and have worked with six separate families. I would love to hear from you and I can provide you with excellent references.

Georgie ~ Brighton

Hi there! My name is Georgie and I am 23 years of age. I have been babysitting since I was 15 years old and adore working with children. Growing up with many younger cousins, it was clear that I enjoyed taking care of children. This led me to pursue my first job in babysitting. Whether it is day care, afternoon or evening babysitting, I continue to help out families around Brighton.

Although I have kept a few casual babysitting/ nannying positions, I have also had many office workplace experiences. These experiences have also enhanced my ability to communicate and deal with numerous personality types and behaviours. As a result, I am very patient and listen carefully. These skills are important in babysitting/ nannying as children begin to develop their own ways of dealing with situations and expressing themselves!

I also have a keen interest in fitness and nutrition. This led me to pursue a part time degree in fitness in 2010. Throughout this degree, I learnt how to teach children to enjoy healthy living. Thus, in nannying and babysitting I understand the importance of nutrition and am able to cook on a regular basis.

That being said, I also enjoy baking and my yummy cupcakes have received many compliments!

I have had years of experience working with families and babies/ children of all ages.

Willing to apply for a police check and certificate II in first aid if necessary.

I feel that I am a kid at heart and that is the key to entertaining and connecting with children - being relatable.

I have my own sturdy and safe car, with many years driving experience.

I am very domesticated and willing to help out around the house.

I enjoy drama, arts and crafts and baking!

Working with children is such a rewarding experience- I look forward to speaking with you soon!

Kind regards,
Georgie

Steph ~ Brighton

Fun, honest and responsible kiwi nanny looking for a full time nanny position in Australia. I'm happy to relocate to anywhere in Australia...I'm not picky!

I worked as a Nanny in America for 18 months. In this role I was in sole charge of 3 young children – ages 6, 4 and 1yr. I enjoyed going out and about with them or staying at home with them doing crafts and baking or playing games and watching them grow and learn and just generally having fun.

I am currently living in Melbourne working for a family of 5. I am the day time sole carer for two 6 month old girls.

Both these roles included light household chores which don't bother me at all.

Kristiaan ~ Brighton

Hello, My Name is Kristiaan, I am a Twenty One year old female looking for work within the Bayside area! With over 7 years of experience in babysitting along with nannying I have also been involved in several afterschool care and Holiday programmes (Brighton Beach Primary, Brighton Grammar, Elsternwick Primary & Firbank Grammar.)
I have my Working With Children Check, Drivers license- along with a safe car, many references and Anaphylactic Training. I have also had my First Aid & Bronze Medallion but has now expired and have not been renewed. I am willing to renew these for the right candidate!

I feel I have a lot to bring to the table with young Children as I love Sports, exercising and Arts and Crafts. I have previous experience in coaching Tennis to young Children and have my own small Jewellery business that I do in my spare time. I am also extremely animal friendly and pretty much had every pet imaginable growing up so I am more than sure I will fall in love with your pets as much as your children!

I am currently working Full time in the city doing Reception/Admin work. I originally only started to help out a friend and have ended up staying a lot longer than expected! Having said that, I would like to find a full time Nannying job along with outside hours of babysitting on weekend days and nights and even the occasional over night stay if required!
I am a very easy going person so can be quite flexible with times as I know not everything always runs to plan!

I am willing to run errands, light house hold cleaning, food preparation and I am sure to try basically anything that is to be thrown my way. I also love cooking and experimenting with new recipes! I have recently found out I am allergic to preservatives so my meals are based on everything natural and organic! I am an extremely clean person, especially living with two boys and two messy cats!

A little bit more about myself:
In the year 2009 I became a full time Carer for my mum who suffered a major Stroke. This made me realise how much family means to one another and made me a lot more cautious of the surroundings around one another. I feel that I am a lot more mature for twenty one as I have experienced and been through a lot more than most people would at my age. Being a full time carer is a very full on and a very busy job. My duties were a lot similar to Childcare at times as I would have to assist with showering, changing of clothes, help with walking, running errands, making sure food was prepared and served on time and giving out the correct level of prescribed medication. Thankfully my mother is a lot better today and she is more independent. I still look after her but not full time.

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile, if it seems that I may be the right person to do your job please contact me.

Georgia ~ Brighton

Hello! My name is Georgia, I am an 19 year old female with 5 years casual babysitting experience and a year of nannying. I completed my final year of VCE at Firbank Grammar in 2010. This year I decided to take a year off from studying to go travelling in western and eastern Europe and have just returned after 6 months. With my passion of caring for children and enthusiastic nature, I am again seeking families who are looking for a responsible, trustworthy and fun individual to entertain your children on a long, short term or casual basis. Over the past years I have been casually involved with a variety of families who contact me when they require babysitting. I have also in the past few years been doing nannying with a few families, so along with my reliability and engaged attitude, I feel very competent in caring for children from ages of 1 upwards, and helping to maintain a smooth running household. My 2 years experience working at a busy Café in Hampton highlights my ability to work and stay focused and calm in a highly stressful situation. As I already assist with my own household duties, and my neat and organized personality, I am very happy to assist with any errands and meal preparation. I'm a very easy-going person, and I have my licence and my own car which makes me very flexible. I also have my working with children check, can provide references and will be completing a certificate in first aid in the near future. I would love to hear from you if my profile suits your needs.

Kate Taylor, 21 year old from Brighton.
I'm currently studying Arts/Law at Monash University and interested in finding the perfect family to nanny or babysit for! I have been babysitting and nannying since the age of 16, both casually and consistently for many families. I completed a 3 month placement as a volunteer in Sri Lanka during 2009, living in an orphanage and caring for over 60 girls aged 1-15 full time. Thus, I have rich and exciting experiences in child-minding and demonstrate a passion for child-care. I'm enthusiastic and vivacious, qualities which i hope rub off on children! I have a police check, driver's license, a safe, reliable car (VW GOLF), and I am certified in first aid and teaching english as a foreign language, (also useful for children's language skills!). I am also able to engage in tutoring with your children - having had 2 years of experience tutoring English at all levels and Philosophy and History at VCE levels.
I have no qualms doing housework and absolutely LOVE to cook and imbuing children with a passion for fun and healthy food. I also don't mind cooking dinner for mum and dad for when they get home!
I hope to hear from parents seeking a responsible and fun nanny for your children!

Jessica ~ Brighton

Hi everyone!

My name is Jessica, and I have grown up with younger children around me for my entire life, loving every moment of it!

I have just completed my first year of university this year (Biomedical Science), and am starting a Bachelor of Health Sciences/ Master of Speech Pathology in 2012.

From the beginning of the year, I've been working as an afterschool care nanny three days a week for a beautiful family with two children, a boy aged 6 and a girl aged 8. I've also done casual babysitting work in the past for family friends, younger cousins, and my own younger brother (8 years old now).

I LOVE animals (have a 5 year old Labrador Retriever), so have absolutely no hesitations with pets!. I'm also more than happy to help kids with any homework, as well as any household chores.

Look forward to hearing from you soon!
