Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi my name is Sarah and I'm a 46 year old mum of three (nearly) grown up kiddos Angus 24, Ellecia 19 and Abbey 17. I am a part time retail merchandiser which I love, but what I need to be doing and what I'm wanting to do is be back in my community engaging with new people (especially new little people 😃) hearing and sharing life and and how we experiences it and hopefully learning a few new things as well. I love being creative and brought my kids up in that environment. I have an amazing of crafting ideas and projects which can be tailored to the age/s of the kiddos, but don't worry I always clean up after the project and make it a rule I don't use glitter as you will probably appreciate unless you love to live in a shiny glittering ball 🪩 lol. You will probably find me singing out loud badly and dancing like nobody's watching at any time, I like to have smiles and laughter in my world and I promise you will definitely smile and undoubtedly laugh with or at me... whatever it takes to keep us happy and and joyful I'll have a go 🎤🕺😺. I loved going on little adventures with my kiddos when they were younger, keeping them entertained riding bikes, walking on the beach collecting shells, flying kites in the park and blowing bubbles and I hope to continue to do those things as a carer for your little (or big) kids. I understand I don't have any early childhood education but I do have a quite a lot of personal experience caring for my children and their friends, my niece's and nephews, family and friends and their children and in over 25 years I think I have a pretty good track record and I hope you will consider me in your decision and hopefully reach out for a connection ☺️

Confident, energetic, and genuinely empathetic. I work part-time at a kids tumbling gym and I’ve learnt how to balance fun with structure, handle big personalities with patience, and keep even the most energetic little ones engaged and smiling. I connect easily with kids of all ages, stay calm under pressure, and always bring a creative spark to playtime. Families can trust me to communicate clearly, show up reliably, and care for their children with genuine warmth. I hold a Working With Children Check, a cleared Police Check, recently refreshed CPR/First Aid, and have experience supporting neurodiverse kids and adults.

My name is Joy and i'm located within the South Coast, NSW. My career in the Early Childhood industry began in 2022 which fuelled a strong passion of mine through teaching the children and experiencing their joy! I have found I learn just as much from them, as they do from myself. The career in which I pursued was indeed rewarding. As years progress, I find my ambition in search of a change with similar values and qualities that I admire, which also incorporates interesting elements. Having experience working in Early Childhood services, I have no problem with 38hr wks and am flexible regarding shift times. That being said, I have no issue in regards to commute, thus allowing me to care for children and their families across the illawarra/sydney area. I hope you consider me for this wonderful opportunity!
