Nannies in West Melbourne, VIC

I am a compassionate and responsible individual with a genuine love for children. Having cared for children in various settings, I prioritize safety and nurturing environments. My experience includes 1 year+ working in long day care services. I have experience working with children from 6 months - 5 years old. I understand the importance of engaging children in age-appropriate activities that promote their development and well-being. I communicate effectively with both children and parents, ensuring clear expectations and trust. As a babysitter, I am committed to creating positive experiences and building lasting relationships with families. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute my skills and enthusiasm to your childcare needs.

Hi Parents! I'm Joanna. Originally from the UK & have been living in Melbourne for 13 years. I absolutely love spending time with children, they bring me so much laughter & joy. I am friendly, patient and energetic. Left my corporate job in Sales 5.5 years ago, to pursue working with children. Worked as a full-time nanny since and never looked back! I would love to build relationships with parents & children and get to know each other on a long term basis 😊

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! After working for a family for just over 3 years their little one is going to preschool in 2024. I now have an opening to join a new family and welcome interest from anyone looking for commitment, kindness, nurturing and success. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my whole life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with age. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress or anxiety is about the energy from the babysitter as well. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age babysitter can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I recently completed working with 3 children 5-6 days a week with their mother. Two children has special needs. In a short 8 months I was able to create new routines and boundaries that all three children, as well as both parents and four grandparents all had enormous benefits from and still implement these routines. I have a love relationship with this family. The mother is really eager to be a phone reference for me to share her experience with anyone who would like to consider employing me. I was a children's swimming coach when I was in my 30's and in the last 3 years also worked with children, as a club netball coach too. In the last 12 months I have been looking after two children under 5. I did this for free because I wanted to have a life with children aside and after two successful careers. Now that I am a child's book author, I want to be around them more. I learn from them while they are cared for by me. From breakfast through to dinner and bed time this year, I was able to develop an emotional bond with both children. We laugh a lot. I understand their behavior patterns as they grow through different stages. I've been an Aunt for nearly 20 years but they've grown up. I've been a guardian to my best friends children but they live interstate. I love getting to know each individual child and creating engagement with them and their particular interests. Sharing interests is a great start to building confidence within the child's self esteem. I want my life to also support young parents too. Being a parent can be a relentless experience when life throws up other challenges. I would be a great match with parents that have set routines and ethical structure for their children to learn within. I wouldn't be a good match for families that don't create boundaries to learn within and have structured routines to give them definition and security in their day. It's always going to be about the child and their daily development. They grow up so fast and each year has an impact on developing them into young adults. Additionally I live a very honest ethical life and hold strong to this personal philosophy. I have lived a life of integrity. I am extremely reliable and punctual as I understand leadership on many levels and the need to support people who are also learning in new areas in life and in their jobs. It has developed a deep level of understanding within me. I have my own car so collecting and driving to and from activities is a usual step for me. I just need children car seats to borrow for safety in travel etc. I am regularly available for Ad Hoc babysitting including weeknights and weekends.

With a rich background spanning 5 years, I have honed my childcare expertise, particularly with children aged 3 to 8. My skill set extends to orchestrating engaging extracurricular activities and fulfilling the role of a dedicated nanny. Through years of hands-on experience, I've cultivated a deep understanding of the unique needs and dynamics of young minds. From facilitating educational play to ensuring a safe environment, I am committed to fostering holistic development. As a versatile caregiver, I bring a blend of patience, creativity, and responsibility to the table, striving to make a positive impact on the well-being and growth of the children under my care.
