Babysitters in Westbrook, NSW

Hey, I’m Mechelle 😊 I’m a mum of three now-adult children, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you feel completely comfortable trusting with your family. I’m a warm, reliable and patient person who loves creating a calm, positive and supportive environment where children feel safe, encouraged and understood. Along with my experience as a mum, I have a background in fitness, disability/support work and I’m currently studying counselling, which has strengthened my passion for helping people build confidence and feel supported. I’m active, responsible, have my own transport, and I’m comfortable with pets, routines, school pickups, activities and simply being an extra helping hand when families need it. I believe kindness, patience, encouragement (and a little bit of fun!) go a long way. I’d love the opportunity to support your family 😊

I’m a warm, caring and reliable early childhood professional with 20+ years’ experience in the early childhood education and care sector, including extensive hands-on experience with babies, newborns and infants (feeding, settling, sleep routines and early development). I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education, a current Working With Children Check, Poilce Check, an up-to-date First Aid, CPR, Anaphylaxis, Asthma, SIDS and Safe Sleep training. I also have extensive experience working with children with ADHD, Autism, and children who may not have an official diagnosis but may experience some difficulties with behaviour or expressing their emotions. I am a registered Circle of Security Facilitator - in both parent and classroom approaches. I prioritise kindness, building secure, reciprocal relationships and developing trust and connection. I am extremely patient, calm, compassionate and respectful - both personally and professionally. I am also flexible and respectful of each parents/families parenting approach. I have a full driver’s licence, my own car, I’m a non-smoker, and a big animal lover, so I’m very comfortable with pets. I’m also happy to help out with light housework, washing and meal prep. I live in Cessnock but am more than happy to travel. I dont have children of my own but I am fortunate enough to be an aunty to my young neices and nephews. If you would like any more information or have any question, please dont hesitate to reach out. 🥰
