Hello nice to meet you. My name is Aoi, and I'm from Japan. I arrived in Melbourne on January 20th. I can start working in February. I am very interested in becoming an au pair and would love to support your family. This would be my first babysitting role, so I don’t have parent references at the moment. However, I have experience looking after children in Japan. I have five cousins, aged 4 to 16, whom I look after regularly. I also have a younger brother who is four years younger than me, so I have been taking care of children since I was little. In Japan, I worked for four years as a dental receptionist and assistant, and for three years at a pizza restaurant. I also have experience working at a café, so I am comfortable with customer service and multitasking. I love children and sports, and I would be happy to play with your children and help with household tasks as well. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I’m Zaira, a caregiver with a deep love for children As the eldest of six children, caring for others has always been a big part of my life. From a young age, I naturally stepped into a role of responsibility, helping to look after my siblings, cousins, and extended family while our parents worked. Growing up in Africa, that kind of support within the family is second nature — it’s how we’re raised, and it’s something I’ve always taken pride in. After moving to Australia, that same love for caring didn’t change. I’ve looked after my neighbour’s daughter, and most memorably, a beautiful baby girl named Maya. I began caring for her when she was just three months old, and stayed with her until she turned one. She became like family to me, and being part of her early milestones, from her first smile to her first steps, was incredibly special. Working with children brings me real joy. I love watching their personalities grow, listening to their little stories, and being someone they feel safe and happy around. I’ve always been known for being patient, gentle, and reliable whether it’s keeping routines in place, helping with learning and play, or simply offering comfort when it’s needed most. Looking after children isn’t just something I do. It’s something I genuinely care about. Every child deserves to feel loved, supported, and understood, and I always aim to create that kind of space when I’m with them. I’m grateful for every opportunity to be part of a child’s life and to support families in whatever way I can.
