Hi, Iโm Sarah.
I am a professional private nanny and household manager with over 10 yearsโ experience as a nanny and 15 years in the corporate sector. I am a mother to a now 23-year-old daughter, who has graduated with honours from Deakin University, allowing me to genuinely empathise with parents and understand childrenโs developmental needs across all stages.
I have spent the past 8 years nannying long-term for one family, caring for their children from infancy through to school age (now 10, 8, and 4). I supported the children through night routines, childcare and school transitions, extracurricular activities, and major milestones. As the youngest child has now commenced kindergarten/daycare, the family and I have reached a natural and heartfelt transition point.
Alongside this role, I am currently supporting a corporate single father, where my responsibilities include overnight care when required, international travel, and full household support. I am also engaged two days per week with an additional family, working 12-hour days, and pre-booked in weekly batches to support their son on an ongoing basis.

Experience & Duties
My experience extends well beyond childcare and includes:
โข Full-time and long-term nannying (0โ10 years)
โข Household management and running private residences
โข Acting as EA support to a corporate single father
โข Domestic and international travel with families
โข Overnight and sleepover care
โข School and activity pick-ups/drop-offs
โข Weekend and extended-hour care (including 12-hour shifts)
โข Post-hospital care and recovery support
โข Creating and implementing educational and developmental activities
โข Swimming lessons, gymnastics, homework support
โข Cooking for children and families, including specific dietary requirements
โข Meal prep, batch cooking, laundry, ironing, cleaning and full household organisation
I am highly organised, punctual, flexible, and calm under pressure, with a strong understanding of discretion and confidentiality, including working under NDAs with high-end families.

Personal Approach
I am warm, nurturing, structured, and gentle, always following parentsโ preferences and routines. I strongly believe in open communication and working collaboratively with parents to ensure children receive consistent, high-quality care.
I am equally comfortable supporting single-parent households, understanding the additional flexibility and individual considerations required. I also have experience caring for children with special needs, including autism.

About Me
Outside of work, I enjoy Pilates, spending time with family and friends, and daily walks with my Moodle, Murphy. I am energetic, empathetic, kind, and genuinely love what I do. In over 8 years of professional nannying, I have never once not enjoyed going to work.
To put it simply, I adore children. They are our future, and preserving their innocence, safety, and happiness is something I deeply value. I hope to be someone children remember fondly as they grow olderโwith warmth, joy, and beautiful memories.
