Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting,Au pair,Au Pair

Bonjour! My name is Océane, I'm 29 and I'm from France 🇫🇷 I am currently a nanny for a 1yo lovely busy boy 3 days a week (I know him since his 3 month old). I am available all day on Thursdays and Fridays and for occasional afternoon, evening or weekend babysitting. I am going to start studying Early Childhood Éducation and Care in July 2026 and I am so excited about that! I was a nanny in Wellington, NZ for 1 year and work for some wonderful families! I was looking after an adorable 1 year old girl 3 days a week and a 2 and half year old boy the other 2 days of the week. Occasionally, I was looking after his little sister who was born in December 2024 and whom I have been watching develop since she was born. I was also a nanny for a 1 year old boy last year in full time. I have also done occasional and regular babysitting for children aged 6 month to 9 during weekends and evenings. I was an au pair in the United States for a year and a half. My first year was in Seattle, WA, where I looked after 3 children aged 5 months, 2 and a half years and 6 and a half years when I arrived. I then spent 6 months with another family in New York, where I looked after a little girl who was 7 months old when I arrived. It was an extraordinary experience and I learnt a lot! I did a lot of baby-sitting while I was studying. I've also babysat for several families with children of all ages, from 5 months to 12 years. I've always loved children and sharing time and activities with them. Looking forward to hear from you, A bientôt 😊

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

Looking for any weekend/evening babysitting opportunities. I am enthusiastic, energetic and very keen to eventually pursue youth work at some point in my career. Having returned from working with children in Canada, I find it rewarding and meaningful and am looking for available childcare opportunities alongside my current full time position. I am 25 years old and gained considerable childcare experience from a gap year placement working overseas in England in a boarding house caring for 18 ten year old boys. I am the eldest of 10 cousins and have been looking after babies and young children since I was 12 as well as doing various babysitting jobs for local families over the years. Most recently, I returned from Canada where I was working in a role with X Movement. We worked across primary schools in the greater Toronto area facilitating in-school extra curricular programs with an emphasis on mental wellbeing through mindfulness, movement and mateship. I have completed a significant amount of community service working in a after school care in Beecroft and have qualifications from lifesaving Australia as well as my first aid certificate. I also coached a young netball team for 2 years in 2013/2014. I feel confident working with children of all ages and have a substantial amount of flexibility in the evenings as I am currently working from home.
