I have 36 years experience working in Childcare as well as babysitting and nannying with occasional overnight stays. I work full time in a Centre in which I have been employed for 20 years. I have cared for children 0-12 years of age and particularly enjoy caring for babies and toddlers. I have 3 grown-up children of my own.

Hi, I’m Robyn. I’m originally from England, although I have been living here in beautiful Sydney now for nine and a half years. I have been providing Child Care as a career nanny for just over 14 years (since Feb 2011) - my job has led me to work across the UK, some places in Europe, the States and Australia! I have looked after babies from as young as 4 months old to pre-teens . I have a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care; which I obtained in 2019 at TAFE, Petersham. I am currently working in a role that is outside of school hours, so would love to find something that fills in my time during the day, plus potential for weekends! (:

With over 10 years of experience across Australia and internationally, I specialise in infant care and supporting families during the postpartum (fourth) trimester. I hold certifications in Infant Sleep Training and Newborn Care, and bring a calm, nurturing, and evidence-based approach to my work. I’ve supported families through feeding, settling, sleep routines, and the emotional adjustment to life with a new baby. My passion lies in helping parents feel confident, informed, and supported—offering both practical help and reassurance during this special, and often overwhelming, stage of life. I tailor my care to each family’s unique needs with kindness and professionalism.

Hi, I’m Soha — a caring, compassionate, and empathetic caregiver currently pursuing a Bachelor’s in Psychology at Macquarie University, with a strong focus on child development. With over 7 years of hands-on experience caring for children aged 0 to 15, I bring both practical knowledge and academic insight to the families I support. I have Police check, WWCC and good references from earlier babysitting jobs. I’m confident working with infants, including feeding, soothing, and nappy changes, and with toddlers and older children, I love engaging in meaningful activities that promote learning, emotional growth, and positive behaviour. I can assist with light cooking, cleaning, and creating structured, nurturing environments where children feel safe and valued. Whether it’s helping with homework, building routines, sparking curiosity, or simply being a warm and encouraging presence — I strive to support your child’s development holistically. I believe early childhood is a crucial time, and having someone with a background in psychology can offer your little ones not just care, but the kind of thoughtful interaction that supports healthy growth. I would love the opportunity to bring my heart and knowledge into your home.

I’m a professional nanny and I’ve been looking after kids of all ages for 10 years (started when I was 19). I have undertaken different types of child care as well combination of roles such as sole charge, overnight nanny, holiday and weekend babysitting, housekeeping, personal assistant and child care I’m looking for a long term role, my longest role was 3 years. It’s important for me to form a bond with the kids I’m looking after and to be a positive influence on them. I still keep in contact with looked after over the years and I like to check in on them, it’s a lovely connection to have♥️ I am confident in looking after multiple children at the same time and keeping an eye on my surroundings, making sure the kids are safe. I looked after after three kids under the age of five at the same time! My previous role I had sole charge of a 2 year old full time and also managed her siblings ages 7, 11 and 13 I’m hands on and like to engage with the kids, do activities with them and provide a safe and fun environment I enjoy the outdoors, baking, reading and music, going for walks. Anything outdoors and active! I have a list of activities I like to do with kids of all ages and modifying the activities when necessary to suit developmental stages I have a firm and fair approach. I try to balance gentle, kind and loving with providing structure, routine and boundaries for kids. I think that balance is important to keep them grounded and teach them to be well rounded. I Believe in providing acknowledgement and validation for their feelings and experiences but also appropriate consequences when necessary and to place boundaries. I like to encourage kids to be independent, curious, get them thinking and learning, building self esteem and to instil strong values I’m a safe driver with a clean driving record. I can send you all my relevant documents including driving record. I enjoy driving even in crazy conditions of Sydney traffic! I’m confident driving big cars, I’m used to driving other peoples cars I’m organised (I’m not a fan of chaos!) and I like to plan things out like a routine for the day, including meals, sleep and activities. I enjoy cooking and like to do meal planning for the week. I study health science majoring in nutrition and exercise and like to apply what I study into my life and work I think it’s best to work with the parents as a team to make sure the kids are thriving. Open communication and keeping updated on what’s happening is important to me as well as being transparent, assertive and honest I have references who’ve known me for a long time since I’ve been working with kids for 10 years! I still keep in touch with my most loved nanny families for babysitting and catch ups. If I sound like a good fit for your family, please feel free to reach out and we can chat more.

Hi! My name is Caitlin and I am 31 years old and have been nannying/babysitting for 12 years now whilst I complete my studies (two degrees later!). I am currently in my final year of my second degree, Bachelor of Health Science (Clinical Nutrition), whilst helping out a beautiful family with their now 19 month old boy two days per week. I actually don’t think there’s a better job then spending the day with the little ones I care for, whilst I complete the practical element of my course which requires me to attend college once per week. I am currently looking for a role with an additional family in 2025 1-2 days per week, and am available for casual evening babysitting where needed as well. Over my many years of nannying and babysitting, I have cared for 20+ families, including babies as young as 3 months, right up until 14 years of age. I love kids spontaneity, honesty, creativity (and hilariousness!) ...and just plain CUTENESS! Most of my experience has been with babies and toddlers between the ages of 6 months and 3 years, as I find this age to be the most rewarding, helping to support their development from such a young age, and melting my heart at the same time! I am more than happy to help around the house including washing, cleaning up the kitchen, tidying the house, whilst of course reading a bedtime story (or 5), and putting the kids to bed. I have a current working with children’s check, police check, full drivers licence, first aid and can provide as many parent references as you like! I am an outgoing, friendly, caring person and I am committed to providing a safe, fun filled, kind and caring environment for your child whilst helping you as super mum or super dad juggle life with little ones! Looking forward to meeting you and feel free to send me a text, or give me a call, if that’s easier for you too. 0488 022 465 Caitlin x

I am 33 year old British citizen in Australia, currently on a Working Holiday Visa and will be studying a Graduate Diploma in Early Years Teaching from September. With many years of experience in education and childcare back home in the UK, I am currently working as a casual educator at Mona Vale Kindergarten and looking for a new opportunity to supplement my working hours. I have always found working with children to be highly rewarding; knowing that you are making a positive impact to a child's wellbeing and development is a wonderful feeling. I love taking the time to find out what makes each child unique and listening to them talk about their interests and family. I like exploring children’s passions, favourite things, curiosities and their amazing questions. Each child has their own personality which blossoms in their own light, and I love providing a safe, nurturing environment to witness them gain the confidence to shine. I thrive in playing an active role in developing the social, emotional and physical skills that they will take with them through life. Having trained in the performing arts, I excel in delivering the energy, enthusiasm and playfulness to engage with young children. I like to approach play with the same level of child-like wonder, which makes it very easy for me to quickly build a positive rapport. I feel that children are drawn to my sense of excitement and fun, and I enjoy forming relationships through laughter and bonding sincerely over mutual interests. I always bring an underlying sense of warmth and kindness to everything I do, and recognise that calmness is equally important with young children. I have a passion for story-telling, singing, drama, dance and imaginative play, and love creating opportunities for a child's confidence and creativity to thrive. Alongside the high-energy play and excitement, I do also recognise the moments of needing to bring the energy down and offer reassurance and support to ensure that the child feels fundamentally safe and listened to.

Hello, I hold a Child Care Diploma from TAFE and have over five years of hands-on experience working in childcare centres. During this time, I have worked with children aged 0 to 5, supporting their daily routines and facilitating learning experiences based on the EYLF (Early Years Learning Framework). I enjoy creating engaging, age-appropriate activities that support each child’s development and curiosity. In addition, I have experience working as a babysitter, where I provided independent care for infants and young children, including feeding, nappy changing, and playtime. I am passionate about working with children, and I’m known for being patient, reliable, and attentive. I am looking forward to continuing my career in early childhood education and contributing positively to each child’s growth and well-being. I’m also a mum — my daughter is 17 and currently preparing for her HSC, so I truly understand the needs and challenges families face at different stages of a child’s life. This personal experience helps me connect with both children and parents with greater empathy. I also hold a university degree in Marketing from Macquarie University, which has given me strong communication and organisational skills. I’m excited to continue growing in the early childhood sector and contributing to children’s learning and well-being with care and professionalism.
