Hi parents! My name is Aliyah, I am a 20 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.

Hi! I'm Claudia and I'm a uni student at University of Sydney doing a Bachelor of Primary Education. I have reactivated my profile in my penultimate year of study to offer services of ad hoc babysitting and primary age tutoring. To sum my career path; I was inspired to switch degrees (from an Arts/Sciences degree) after spending time with my regular nannying family, working with the kids doing their online schoolwork during the first lockdown. I had been babysitting and nannying for nearly 5 years at that point and I decided I didn't want my career to diverge from work I loved so much. I also had wonderful nannies and babysitters growing up so I understand the importance of a wonderful carer and would love to provide that. I finished up working for a lovely family with two boys in the inner west in 2022. I started looking after them when they were just 7 and 10 in 2017; being grown and in high school it was a joy to see them grow up and outgrow me. In 2023 I started with a family in Lane Cove, with two lovely boys. I left in 2024 to pursue work as a Teacher's Aide for students on the autism spectrum. My availability is a little in flux with my university timetable from semester to semeste. I am open to ad hoc work, casual babysitting, and day time childcare as needed. My availability does also increase drastically for daytime hours during semester breaks from June-August and November-February, so there is usually some flexibility in what I can offer. With regards to tutoring; I studied Maths, English, French and Art in high school, and furthered my science and languages studies for several years at university before switching to Teaching. In my education studies I have completed core units in mathematics, english, and science and I am current on curriculum materials and teaching approaches. For additional pay per/h I can do Laundry - Vacuuming - General tidy up - Kitchen/Bathroom clean. I have previously regularly babysat for ages 4+, including siblings. I have had some experience with 10 month and 2 year old, mostly in the evenings. All of my past babysitting has involved cooking dinners, doing bath time, bed time stories and runs to the park to keep them entertained :) I'm more than happy with pets. As well as being up to date with COVID vaccinations, I have my licence (and am looking to purchase own car in the near future).

I'm 26 years old and am responsible, reliable, trustworthy, energetic, nurturing and patient. I have had experience in babysitting with a range of children from infancy to 10yrs as well as an ongoing live-in job (3.5 years). I am enthusiastic and love making connections and friendships with the children, helping them grow, caring for, teaching, playing and getting creative with activities so they can learn and have fun! I would love to create a friendship and bond with your child, helping look after them when you need it! I can do light house work and some cooking, however, I am vegetarian and will not prepare any meat but am willing to reheat food and feed the children. Thank you, I hope you consider me! Don't hesitate to contact me with any further questions or concerns.

I have extensive experience in the early childhood sector, including long day care and managing educational programs. Currently, I’m supporting the national restructure of ECEC training resources with an RTO. Alongside this, I’m an artist and run children’s workshops during school holidays with Bayside Council. As work and university commitments ease over the holiday season, I’m looking for something extra to keep me busy. If you and your partner have special events coming up, I’d be happy to care for your little ones so you can relax and enjoy yourselves.
