Babysitters in Wanganui, NSW

I'm Nicole, a Californian brought to Australia by my partner who grew up in the Byron Shire. Now a permanent resident, we're making the shire our full-time home! I've been regularly babysitting since I was 12 years old (18+ years) and then experienced a combination of babysitting and part-time/full-time childcare on and off from 16 until I began working a corporate job after University. After that, I still had families I was close to and would help out whenever I could for the ongoing years. I love children and am excited at the opportunity to get back into more childcare. The best parts of my childhood did not involve screens. I try to bring that knowledge with me whenever I care for children. I love creating fun whether it be arts & crafts, harnessing imagination, adventuring in nature, cooking and baking, sports .... and movie nights are special in their own way when it's not every night! I am very well-read and truly love learning. I cook mostly vegetarian, healthy fresh meals and think it's wonderful when children join in. I'm a very calm-natured person. I respect the balance between structure and having fun, and would respect and follow any parenting rules or beliefs you have for your children. I am very stable and trustworthy. I would hope to create a solid bond with your children and be able to be a supportive role in their lives! I am looking to find something that allows me to finally align my schedule with my partner. Because of this, I'm not interested in working nights or weekends regularly. An occasional weekend to allow for a date night or special request would of course be okay.

I am a kind, caring and patient person, with over 25 years experience working with children of all ages. I am a qualified teacher. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and getting to know them. I love doing art, craft and playing outdoors in nature.

I am Luiza, a 25y, studying Leadership and Management, graduated in Law University, I have extensive experience as a Nanny, having cared for children of various ages over the years. I have always had a deep affection for children and enjoy spending time with them. My experience includes ensuring their safety, creating engaging and educational activities, and providing a nurturing environment. My passion for nurturing and guiding young minds is evident in my approach to childcare. I am dedicated, responsible, and attentive, always striving to provide a positive and enriching environment for the children in my care. I look forward to contributing my skills and love for children to a wonderful family.

I have worked as a Nanny both here and overseas in the UK for a duration of 10 years. I seem to have a natural rapport with babies and young children, probably because I adore them. I did this up until I had my own family. The ages of the children range from birth to 12 years. Part of those experiences; I had the privilege of supporting a Mum with her twin girls from birth to 6 months. I am the mother of 2 children, Adam now 23 and Lucy 20. I currently work for a family in Pottsville with a darling 2 year old and a witty 8 year old. I have been with them 2 days per week all this year. Due to their situation changing, my hours will reduce in 2024. Previously I have worked for the Education Dept for 4 years as a classroom assistant. This was amazing experience working with these young minds with quirky personalities, encouraging them to learn and grow. Finding the balance of guiding them and prompting their own ideas and problem solving. I still enjoy the simple but important things about mothering and running a household; like simply being there, listening, validating a child's experience, playing, being creative, encouraging their creative skills and minds, right through to efficiently running a home, providing wholesome meals, including children in the cooking experience and the importance of feeding themselves well.
