Hi there! My name is Madeleine and I would be so grateful for the opportunity to babysit for you. I absolutely love kids, I think they have such a fun and loving energy. I am reliable, easy to work with and responsible. I am currently studying a bachelors degree at Monash University, and have graduated from Lauriston girls School in 2021. Hope to keep in touch :)

Hi families, Welcome to my profile! I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful 28 year old of my own. I have a positive, upbeat & engaging personality. I was a School Captain & have the ability to get along with all types of people. I have done some voluntary work for Single Family camps creating programs for children at these camps & I was responsible for keeping babies, toddlers & even teens occupied while giving Mum or Dad some much needed respite. This was a fantastic experience & I resided at these 5 day camps solely to help out with the other camp leaders. I have also worked as a Swimming Teacher with the under 5's which I found very rewarding. In my last 12 years working as a Nanny I have cared for twins, multiple children (up to 8 at one time in total) & children with special needs such as autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, asthma, diabetes, eczema & other challenging health conditions. I'm experienced with new born babies up to teens. I am trustworthy & reliable & known for being punctual. I'm a very good communicator. I’m hard-working, diligent, energetic & enthusiastic and a whole lot of fun! I have trained in nursing and paramedic studies. I have had extensive experience with babies and children dating back to the age of 9 when I babysat the neighbours children (including a couple of newborns!).... in total 15 !! I have always been mature & responsible beyond my years. I have been surrounded by children my whole life including my 4 younger siblings and 30 1st cousins! I was a mother figure to my 4 younger siblings as my mother was working full-time as a Nursing Sister & my father was away from home a lot in his job as an International Airline Captain. I have had a lot of responsibility thrust upon me from a very young age. I am Aunty to 13 nieces & nephews & am close to them & we catch up on a regular basis. I enjoy the spontaneous and honest interaction that children provide and I find it immensely rewarding knowing that I am able to influence and help a child to learn and grow confidently. I'm fair with a gentle approach & can be firm while teaching boundaries. I believe all children require stability and need to know they are loved and lovable as a basic right. I never cease to be amazed at the lessons that children can teach us adults! I am inspired by the enthusiasm that children have when learning about the world around them. I tend to establish a good rapport with the young ones I care for which I find very rewarding. Children are so precious & truly a blessing to be cherished. Importantly, I am pro-active with a 'can do' attitude & I have a keen eye for detail so nothing goes unnoticed! I am very safety-conscious so your childs welfare is of utmost importance to me at all times. I can be flexible with time & I am more than happy to work with you to suit you and your childrens ongoing needs. Nb. I have had my car licence for 40 years & I'm a very careful driver with a full licence & faultless record so I've had no accidents or demerits! I look forward to meeting you and your precious children. *My rate is dependent on time of day & children needing care. As per industry regulations my rate starts at $30-35 per hour & I prefer to work a minimum of 3 hours. Thank you.* Thank you for reading & have a lovely day! Best regards Fionna

Hey there! I'm Prue, a 19-year-old with a zest for life! Originally from the beautiful countryside of Victoria, I spent my childhood surrounded by the love of my family of five. Later, I embarked on an adventure at Geelong Grammar for boarding school, and in 2022, proudly graduated. Now, I call the vibrant neighbourhood of Toorak home, sharing laughs and memories with my two fantastic housemates in our cozy share house. When I'm not hitting the books at uni, where I'm pursuing my dream of becoming a nurse, you'll find me spreading joy at Kidstuff, the ultimate playground for kids and the young at heart.

Hi! I'm Sofia. 21y old Brazilian living in Melbourne studying childcare - early childhood, and looking for some casual babysitting on friday after school or weekends. During the week I work as an au pair to a lovely family in Toorak, taking care of a 9 month old. Since I'm paying for my studies and I'll be staying in Melbourne for the next 2 years I'm looking for some extra work to help fill in my income. I love kids and have experience taking care of all ages from 6 months to 8 years old - but happy to watch older or younger kids as well, and I would be confident with newborns too. Back home I used to babysit my baby cousins to help out my uncles. I then went to university to study Pedagogy, and I took a few internships in schools/daycares, which is where most of my experience comes from. Here in Australia this is my second time being an Au Pair and I'm really happy with it. I am a very bubbly and chill person. I love arts and crafts and being creative. I am a big story teller and I love reading books and writing. Also incredibly passionate about music and dancing. Always have a smile on me and always trying to stay positive and optimistic.

Hi! My name is Sophie and I’m 21 years old. I love working with children and have been a nanny for over 2 years and have worked in various primary schools since graduating. I am super creative and love art I use my creativity when babysitting. I’m extremely active and enjoy being out and about. When I was growing up I had an amazing babysitter, I would love to one day be that for a young family.

As a compassionate and dedicated babysitter, I bring an abundance of warmth and empathy to every interaction with the small humans I hang out with. My bubbly personality ensures that I create a lively and engaging environment where kids feel comfortable expressing themselves. I approach each child with an open mind, embracing their unique personalities and interests. Whether it's playing games, reading stories, or simply listening attentively, I prioritize building strong connections based on trust and understanding. With a keen sense of responsibility and a genuine love for children, I strive to provide a safe and supportive space where young minds can flourish and thrive. (Albeit cheesy :)

I am 19 years old and have just moved to Melbourne from North East Victoria to study. With a compassionate nature and a knack for creativity, I am an ideal candidate for babysitting. My patient demeanor fosters a nurturing environment where children feel safe and valued. Possessing excellent communication skills, I can easily engage with both kids and parents, ensuring clear understanding and trust. I am reliable and adaptable, capable of handling unexpected challenges with calmness and efficiency. My dedication to childcare extends beyond supervision; I strive to be a positive influence, fostering growth and happiness in every child I care for.

I am originally from the country now living in Melbourne at university and would love to help a family in need of a babysitter! I have 5 years + of experience babysitting with children of all ages and I have grown up in a family of 5 children as the second oldest, so have plenty of experience in childminding and across the things kids love (who doesn't love bluey). I am an enthusiastic, happy, and caring person eager to find a family to work with that suits my schedule!

I am currently a part-time kinder teacher which means I've had the pleasure of working with children of various ages and backgrounds (from birth to 5 years). I absolutely love spending time with kids and creating a safe, nurturing environment where they can learn and have fun. Whether it's engaging in creative activities, helping with homework, or simply being a supportive companion, I'm dedicated to providing top-notch care for your little ones. I understand the importance of trust and reliability when it comes to childcare, and I'm committed to exceeding your expectations. As a teacher, I am knowledgeable about contemporary research and best practices in early childhood. Trust that your children would be in the best care 😊 I'd love the opportunity to chat further about how I can be a great fit for your family. Please feel free to reach out at your convenience. Looking forward to the possibility of working together!

I have more than one year of experience working with children of all ages. I am a third-year university student studying a bachelor of education (early childhood and primary), and currently working in an early learning centre. I love to work with children of all ages by supporting their development, and watching them grow.

I'm a mummy-nanny looking for a few short shifts a week. I have experience nannying a family of 3 kids (8 months, 2 years and a new baby) for 3 years total and have loved watching them grow up! Now that I've got my own little one, I'm looking to slowly get back into nannying by helping out a family for a few short shifts a week. What I like about nannying is seeing the positive impact I can have on kids and their families. I get a great sense of satisfaction out of seeing mum and dad relax with the knowledge that their kids will be well taken care of in their absence. I like taking my nanny kids outside on walks, to playground, do baking, and giving them lots of opportunities for play. Because playing is how kids learn! Other experience I have: - au pair for a 2 year old for 6 months - babysitting since 12 years old, many different ages (2 to 12 years old) - short term nanny job with a 4 week old baby - director of a children's choir (main responsibility for a group of around 20 12-year-olds) I'd love to hear from you and discuss how I can be of help!

Dear parents, I am Esma and currently working as an Early Childhood Teacher in Elwood. I completed my Master of Teaching Early Childhood and Primary at Deakin University.

I like going to the parks, spending time outside, reading, playing, art crafting with kids. I have quite much experience with kids and references are also available. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you, Esma
