Looking for: Casual Babysitting

Hi there! I’m a recent Deakin Uni grad with a Bachelor of Early Childhood Education. I’ve spent time working with children in sessional kinders and childcare, so I’m all about crafts, stories, games, and turning messy play into learning fun! I genuinely love spending time with children and helping them grow their confidence while having a blast. I’m patient, reliable, and totally down for fort-building, sidewalk chalk, or reading 5 bedtime stories in a row 😊 Your little ones will be safe, entertained, and in good hands with me! Im ideally available to work casually Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays!

I have always loved working with children and naturally connect with them. I previously nannied for a family with two young children. I looked after them between ages 5 months and 3 years, where I cared for their day-to-day needs and supported the household. My responsibilities included meal preparation, light housework, engaging the children in age-appropriate activities, and ensuring a safe, nurturing environment. I bring high energy, a love for cooking, and a strong sense of organisation to my work. I’m confident navigating to parks, museums, or after-school activities and enjoy supporting children’s growth through both play and learning. Most importantly, I aim to help hardworking parents by providing reliable care so that both they and their children feel happy, supported, and well looked after.

Hello, I’m Cassidy, a local psychology student with a genuine passion for working with children. I’ve been babysitting for local families for several years, and currently do school pick ups four days a week for a family with four kids. This has given me a lot of hands-on experience managing multiple kids after school routines and keeping everyone happy and safe! I’m currently studying a Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) with an interest in child development, which means I bring both practical experience and a genuine understanding of how children think, grow and learn. I’m patient, energetic, and love making childcare fun. Outside of babysitting and studying, I’m an active social person that enjoys cooking, playing netball, and meeting my friends for coffee/walks. I’m particularly looking for regular before school or daytime shifts with young children. If you are interested, please reach out 🩷
