Hi parents! I’m looking for occasional work, ideally in the evening or some weekends. I am comfortable caring for children/teenagers of all ages, including young babies and twins. I have close to ten years of experience caring for children and can provide excellent references. I’m happy to take the kids on outings and am comfortable driving either my (modern) vehicle or yours. I’d love to hear from you!

... and live-out nanny. WWVP card registration no: 96757 exp's 14/07/2029. Equivalent to NSW WWCC. Mature with long term experience educating & caring for my own children, other's in childcare centres or in my/their homes. Currently caring for a young baby a few hours in the middle of the day on Tue's and Thu's. Previously worked as a qualified/childcare educator in childcare centres mostly 2007-2023. Wishing to increase my hours working as a nanny/day-time babysitter. Desiring up to 4 whole or part time days per week. Have previously started as early as 08:00, willing to start earlier, for school drop offs or finished as late as 20:30 after school pick ups. Not necessarily seeking to finish that late. I have transported children to & from after school activities in my or supplied by families cars with supplied child car seat/s. Earlier this year I did school pick ups & cared for 6yr old & 9 yr old sibling a few afternoons a week similar to my (lower down the page) 2022 family. Over the 2022 school year, I regularly worked as a live-out nanny for a 4yr old & 6yr old siblings. I cared for the 4yr old at least most of one day a week & drove her to her daytime activities, some days dropped off/or picked up both from pre/school & drove both to daytime/after school swimming lessons. Was approx 20 hours/week. I encourage/join in with card/board games, make available indoor activities such as art, sewing & craft. Able to bring my sewing machine to your home heavily supervised. I discourage screen time. Very open to your ideas of extracurricular activities & once I know your family & your local area I am confident to make suggestions to you to extend local outdoor activities I could be involved in with your child/ren. Very capable & willing to assist with homework. I have parent, personal & work referees. Still on call to do the odd school pick up/Fri or Sat late afternoon til late evening care for my 2022 family. We have remained close friends. My family & I are still very outdoorsy. We have a large vegetable garden. At the time took our children, now adults, camping, bicycling, on picnics on remote river banks & on long caravan road trips. As far as I am concerned there is no such thing as bad weather as long as you have the appropriate clothing (except of course the extreme outdoor sun & heat of summer.) Would do indoor activities in these instances. Love to jump in puddles or mud, go for long walks to local playgrounds or transport children to outdoor destinations. Would love to hear from you to discuss the care of your child/ren
