Hi, I’m Mia! I’m 19 years old and a law student at ANU and I absolutely love playing with kids of all ages as I have two younger siblings. I’ve been coaching netball and swimming since I was 16, working with children as young as 2 and up to 17 year olds which I teach swimming to now, and have found it super fulfilling and fun. I have also done volunteer tutoring, and will be able to help the kids with their homework in the afternoons. I love doing sports - especially netball, and love to cook all foods especially Italian.

Hi parents! I’m Issie, and am a student studying Commerce and Asian Studies at the Australian National University. I graduated from Geelong Grammar in 2023 and am 20 years old.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi, my name's Georgia! I am in my third year of university, and have experience both as a babysitter and a tutor! As a babysitter during the covid era, a lot of my initial babysitting experience came from offering to take the children in my neighborhood to the park or to other outdoor activities during the day to give their parents a break while they had to work from home. I learnt a lot from this experience - I sometimes was looking after upwards of 5 kids from the ages of 4 to 12, so learning how to keep them all engaged, safe and happy was very essential. Most of my experience post-covid was mostly looking after the children within on family. I've mostly babysat for families with 2+ kids, and am comfortable with getting dinner on the table and putting the kids to bed. One of my favorite things about babysitting is getting to know the children over time, so if you're looking for a more consistent babysitter rather than a one-off, I'm happy for that as well!
