Babysitters in Balgowlah Heights, NSW

Hi, my name is Larisa and I’m a 17-year-old who is reliable, caring, and excited to babysit for local families. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids—whether that’s playing games, reading stories, or helping with simple homework. Safety is always my top priority, and I’m happy to follow any household routines or special instructions you provide. I’m punctual, organized, and easy to communicate with, making sure parents feel confident while they’re away. I’m also comfortable preparing snacks or light meals and tidying up after playtime. I’m keen to help your family and make sure your children feel safe and happy.

Hi! My name is Abbey, I'm 22 years old and currently in my third year of University studying Psychology.

Hi! My name is Maddie, and I am highly passionate about fostering a safe, nurturing and exciting environment for young children to flourish in. I graduated from Redlands School in 2024 and have since been gaining experience in childcare as a babysitter, school sports coach, while also gaining experience in retail. My childcare experience began in 2022, when I volunteered as an assistant in the Redlands pre-school OOSH (Out of School Hours). For many years of my life, my hobbies have involved health and fitness, travel, dance, netball, and touch football. I am currently studying politics and marketing at University, with a large interest in human rights and diplomacy. In my experience as both the child and the worker in childcare, I believe reliability, communication and mentorship are at the epicentre of a positive babysitting experience for both families and the babysitter. Many would describe me as possessing these traits, along with humour, creativity, ingenuity, kindness, and an attention to detail. I approach all tasks and activities with confidence and an eagerness to learn more about others while simultaneously learning more about myself in different roles. I cherish any opportunity to become a mentor for a child, as I believe it can take just one person during a child's development to bring out something so special in them!

I’m confident with dinner times, bedtime routines, and keeping things running smoothly so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to bring a bit of fun, structure, and care to your household!
