Babysitters in Petersham, NSW

Hi! Im Vye, I am currently studying my medical undergraduate with plans to pursue a future postgraduate in Paediatrics, and my Philosophy degree simply for a passion of understanding humanity. I have had many jobs during university and high school and found that nannying is the one that feels most suited to me and my personality. I am kind, bubbly and outgoing, but am the eldest sibling in my family and have inherited a stern nature when it comes to knowing whats right and how to go about it. I have three years of experience with ages between 6 months - 5 years old. I am a big advocate for creative play without the need for screens (:

I am a 29 year old looking for casual babysitting work alongside my studies. I have spent the last few years working in media and community services and am now undertaking a nursing degree. I previously studied fine arts so am big on any creative endeavours and equally love cooking and the outdoors. I spent most of my teens and early 20s babysitting for kids ranging from 12 months - 8 years old and have really missed it over the past few years. Looking forward to meeting your family!

Hi! I'm Cassidy. I have five years' experience as a nanny working with children of all ages as both a day and night time nanny. I'm especially confident with newborns and babies having supported many families as a birth and postpartum doula. I'm warm, empathetic, reliable, and playful. I have a deep respect and admiration for children and enjoy exploring their interests. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions. I am currently only available on Friday and weekends for casual babysitting as well as across the holiday period as I work with a wonderful family I’ve been with for four years.

Hello, my name is Giovana, I am 26 years old and I am from Brazil. I moved to Sydney in November 2024 to experience a new culture and improve my English.

I am a caring, patient, and responsible person, and I enjoy supporting children’s learning, development, and wellbeing.

Hi parents! My name is Aliyah, I am a 21 year old second-year uni student studying a Bachelor of Nursing at UTS. I have had previous babysitting experience with children ages 1.5 - 10 years old and have worked for 3 different families. I have also worked as a volunteer assistant at a school, working in the preschool and first grade for 2 years. During my time at the school, I learned that it is most important to immerse children in creativity and also involve them in tasks such as cooking and baking, which I have found promotes development. I also grew up in a house full of kids, as I have three nieces and one nephew who are between the ages of 1 - 5 that I frequently babysit. I can do laundry, house chores and cook meals. I am currently available 2 - 3 days a week and can work on weekends; however, my schedule is subject to change on certain days. Please feel free to contact me for additional details and relevant documents.

I’m Elyn, a warm, patient and reliable nanny based in Petersham. With experience as a babysitter, teacher assistant and volunteer in orphanages, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from tiny babies to curious toddlers and school-aged kids. Childcare has always been a meaningful part of my life. I love creating calm, engaging and safe spaces where children feel supported, valued and free to explore. Families describe me as nurturing, responsible and very communicative. My approach is grounded in respect, empathy and positive guidance — always following each child’s rhythm, needs and personality. I’m also studying Early Childhood Education, which helps me bring fresh, development-focused ideas into my work. I’m comfortable with pets and happy to assist with light household tasks to make your day easier. My goal is simple: to care for your little ones with the same love, patience and intention that I would want for my own future children.

Hi, I’m Harper! 😊 I’m 23 and a caring, reliable and friendly babysitter with a genuine love for working with children. I’ve been looking after children my whole life, starting with my younger siblings and continuing through babysitting for families. I also have experience working in support work, which has taught me how to confidently manage a household, prepare meals, keep children safe and create a calm, positive environment. I’ve studied psychology, youth counselling and mental health, which has given me a strong understanding of children’s cognitive and emotional development and how important it is to support each child as an individual. I’m happy to help with school runs, meals, homework, playtime, bedtime routines and keeping the house tidy. I’m creative, patient and love getting children involved in fun activities rather than just putting them in front of a screen.
