Babysitters in Canterbury-Bankstown, NSW

Hi, I am Pranee. I am friendly, patient, and good with children. I have a younger brother who is now 4 years old. I looked after him back in my home country before I came here one year ago. I am reliable and can help keep your kids safe, happy, and busy with fun activities while you are away.

I am a caring, experienced and passionate educator with over 23 years of experience providing quality care and education for children. I began my career in early childhood education and have spent the past 20 years working as a primary school teacher. I have experience supporting children with additional needs, as well as children who speak English as an additional language. As a mother of three, I understand how important it is for families to feel confident that their child is safe, understood and genuinely cared for. I usually provide last-minute babysitting from my home, but I am also happy to travel when needed. I believe every child is unique and deserves the opportunity to feel valued, develop confidence and thrive. My care is built on meaningful relationships, engaging experiences, flexibility and strong partnerships with parents. My goal is to provide nurturing, reliable care that supports each child’s learning, wellbeing and development, while helping them grow into confident, lifelong learners.
