Babysitters in Dawes Point, NSW

Hi! I am Zoe, currently a student at University of Sydney. I ice-skate as an active hobby and love being around adorable children! I grew up with 4 younger siblings and have been tending to them when my parents were busy with work. I have 4 full years of paid babysitting/childcare experience with external families beyond my own, and am awesome with kids (I have several parent testimonies from children ranging from a couple of months old all the way to age 5, upon request). I am a patient, nurturing and gentle person and will be more than happy to help where needed. I was educated up till high school in Singapore and graduated with all A’s and B's! I also volunteered in several school programs where I was a childcare assistant and tutor to kindergarten and preschool children. We did all sorts of arts and crafts, games, and other mind-stimulating experiences for little ones. A big chunk of the families that I help babysit for, are long-term going above 3 years, and the rest are referrals to their friends from the families that I babysit for. I recently moved to Sydney and hence am looking for friendly families that I can offer my value to! I am earnest to be your go-to babysitter, be it ad hoc or as frequent as my schedule allows, and am totally ok with spontaneous bookings (emergencies and date nights are inevitable!)

27 years old, currently completing a Bachelor of Midwifery. I have 5 years experience caring for newborns, babies, toddlers and pre-school/primary school aged children as a nanny (2 years full-time care of newborns, babies and toddlers and 3 years experience of after school runs for a family with pre-school/primary school aged children). I love working with children and mothers. I am passionate about the work I do, which is always in service of promoting healthy early childhood development, and secure child-caregiver attachment. I have a gentle personality that I find always puts little ones at ease. I enjoy playing games with children, reading, singing, going on walks and completing homework together. I am comfortable looking after children both outgoing and introverted and understand each child has their own unique set of needs. Safety, privacy and empathy are at the centre of my care. I particularly love caring for babies and have experience caring for newborns both as a nanny and student midwife. I am confident with bottle feeding, settling to sleep, carrying, changing nappies, bathing and the million other things to do in that beautiful baby bubble! I like cleaning and tidying up so you'll enjoy me making things easier for you when you get home without needing to ask. I only speak English; however, I did take care of children who went to bilingual school for 3 years, and have taken lessons in French and Spanish, so am very capable of helping your kids with language homework/games. I am currently teaching myself French on Duolingo :) Fully vaccinated (NSW Health compliant), current Police check, Working with Children's Check, full unrestricted driver's licence holder with car (10 years experience), pet-friendly, and I am a non-smoker. I completed an unaccredited First Aid for Babies and Children course with the Australian Red Cross in 2021, and received training in baby and adult CPR with my midwifery studies earlier this year. I am happy to undertake any additional/refresher training for your peace of mind. My rate is $35+/hr as per award minimum for my experience and education. My rates are negotiated, as every family situation is unique regarding number of children, ages, times of day, hours, travel etc. Message me for a meet-up so I can get to know you and your family. Can't wait to meet you!

Hi! Im Megan, a 27 year old nursery and primary school teacher from the UK. I will be arriving in Australia on a WHV in July and will be hoping to stay for at least 12 months. I have two university degrees (Psychology and Primary Education) and I have been a Reception class teacher (pupils aged 4 and 5) in the UK for 4 years before then spending this past year working in a private nursery setting with babies and toddlers ranging in ages from 5 months to 3 years old. Prior to this, throughout my studies, I worked as a key member of a care team providing educational and social support for a beautiful little boy who was non verbal, autistic. I am extremely sporty and enjoy spending time outside and in nature exploring as much as I can. I have a Level 2 swimming teacher qualification and in my spare time have coached the local swim team development squad (children aged 8/9/10) and provided 1-2-1 swimming lessons for children ages 3 onwards. I currently have a UK DBS certificate ensuring that I am safe and able to work with vulnerable groups and children but would also be more than happy to complete a WWCC qualification once I arrive in Australia. I currently also have a Level 3 paediatric first aid qualification. I would love to hear from you and if you have any questions at all please do not hesitate to ask! Thank you!
