Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

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.

Hi, my name is Maya. I have just recently moved from regional Victoria to North Melbourne for university. I would like to start babysitting/nannying 4-5 days a week although I am available Monday to Friday until the end of April when my university course starts. I have had lots of experience in the past babysitting. I've previously worked with various families from newborns to 13 years old. But I have also grown up with a huge family so I'm constantly surrounded by little cousins and kids. I have always loved playing and interacting with kids so nannying/babysitting seems like a fitting job :) My hobbies and interests are sports, exercise, water-skiing and just spending time with friends and family. I also have my license and happy to help out with cleaning and jobs around the house.

Hi, I’m Judy, I’m 23 years, Profesional in culture management. Proudly Colombian and I would like to be your next babysitter. Firstly, I came to Australia with my partner 13 months ago, both studying. I have been studying general english and I’m going to start to study Certificate III and Diploma in Childcare the next September, however, in the professional aspect I’m a tradional dancer from Colombia and there I did my bachelor in culture management. In addition, I like the sports, take care of children and animals, I enjoy outdoors and I like the bakery. Since I have memory, I have always been good with children. About my experience with them, my first opportunity was in a kindergarten in Colombia, teaching traditional dance to children from 3 to 5 years old. I was working there for 8 months and It was a great experience, after I was working in different colleges as well teaching tradional dance to children from 5 to 12 years old for 3 months, also I have experience look after of children, specially with babies because I was a nany to siblings, a baby of 6 month old and his sister 6 years old for 3 years, during my free time when a I was studying my bachelor at university in Colombia. My tasks were drop them off and pick them up from school or child care, meals prep, clean after kids, supervised the bath/shower time, do homework/homeschool in case we have another lockdown, basically taking care of them every moment. Also I can be a personal shopper/assistant with other duties or errands. When it comes to activities I like to improvise I also fit into their routines which can be going to the beach, park, library, museum, sports training, picnics, competitions, crafts, drawings, movies, cooking, learning spanish, board games, contests. All that and more! With me, you will never lack photographs and videos of your children. Sharing with children has been the most enriching of my life, and I would like to get a opportunity in Australia, because I have the skill, I enjoy so much the children and I think that it’s the best opportunity for improve my English and also for start my professional career. Please, do not hesitate to ask for more details and references. I consider myself responsible and honest. Feel free that your children are in good hands.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello parents! My name is Bek. I am currently nannying for an 8 and 11 year old twice a week and would love to meet another family to add to this current role on my other available days. I love kids and I'm very comfortable with all ages, especially young babies, and I have looked after relatives' children for as long as I can remember! I have spent the last 12-months volunteering casually with a local 'homework club' with primary school children from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, helping them work through basic numeracy and literacy exercises (as well as play games, read, and share healthy snacks). I have also previously volunteered as a teachers' aide at a Specialist School, working with primary-aged children with differing abilities and needs. I love reading, crafts and music (I always have a harmonica and egg shaker handy), and I would love to do these kinds of activities with your children! I'm more than happy to work with parents to prepare snacks and meals + help around the house when needed too! I have an up to date Working With Children Check and have recently had my police check. I have my driver's license (on my green Ps), have a 5-seater car and am more than comfortable commuting / transporting through Melbourne's CBD, inner and outer suburbs.

I simply love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage of their young lives. I am available to discuss further details at your convenience and provide any additional information you may require.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi, My name is Val, I am 25 years old and I live Melbourne, but I am Colombian I arrived in this beautiful city 11 months ago because I want to improve my English and have a cultural exchange, I have always loved children and take care of them, I usually took care of my little brother, my cousins and the children of my friends when they needed it. My family and friends say that I am a very motherly, responsible and loving person, and I also love children. I am responsible person to have the opportunity to improve my English, learn about your lifestyle, your habits and your country, which I admire very much. And what better way than doing what I love! I love spending time with children and learning everything they can teach me every day. They learn a lot from us, but we learn more from them than we think. For me, it is wonderful to see them grow with us and learn, little by little, to be more independent. I have experience in caring for children from 3 years to 11 years, girls and boys too. In 2017 I took care of a girl named Monserrat Tovar, who was 3 year old, and a 4-year-old boy named Samuel Tovar, then in 2018 I took care of 7-year-old boy named Juan José Pinzón and with him I shared until the 2020, later this year I had the opportunity to share with a six-year-old girl named Amelia Cardozo. The experience was great. I used to wake the children, have breakfast together, help them dress, take them to the Garden or help them with their homework when they were studying virtually or sometimes, we did activities and games for a pleasant and fun time with the children, however, these Activities varied depending on the child he was with as he adapted the activities according to their ages. Besides the experience in babysitting, I also love listening to music when I have free time, watching movies or series, traveling and learning about other cultures and ways of life, meeting new people, talking and sharing experiences, going out with friends or preparing lunch or dinner with my family or with my friends too. I am very excited about the opportunity to get to know you better and be a member of your family. I hope to hear from you! Best wishes, Val.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello, I'm Francesca, a 27-year-old Italian currently residing in Australia since September 2022, embarking on my third year of a working holiday visa adventure. In my approach to life, I prioritize positivity and an open-minded outlook. I'm known for my hardworking nature, a trait that comes hand in hand with a strong sense of responsibility. What truly fuels me, however, is the joy of bringing happiness to children's lives. During my time in an Aboriginal community, I had the privilege of imparting art lessons to children, an experience that deeply enriched my understanding of their world. Cooking is another avenue through which I express my creativity and passion. With a knack for Italian cuisine, I love involving kids in the kitchen, turning meal preparation into a delightful and interactive activity. Above all, my heart is happiest when I'm spending time with children, nurturing their curiosity, and creating cherished memories together.
