Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello, I'm Erin! I'm a 33-year-old artist, environmentalist, and childcare worker with four years' experience caring for children from newborn to 8 years, in Australia and the UK. I hold three Bachelor's degrees in nursing, health science (paramedics), and environmental management, and bring a calm, safety-conscious approach to childcare alongside genuine warmth and patience. My general approach is guided by the principles of the Danish Way of Parenting, including play, authenticity, reframing setbacks, empathy, no ultimatums, and togetherness. I put a strong focus on age-appropriate nature-based play and creative expression through music, movement, and art. I love helping kids and young people explore the world around them with curiosity and confidence. I'm also confident with younger babies, including feeding, changing, bathing, napping, burping, and giggling, and would gladly support parents wanting a few hours' break! I take the time to understand each child's natural strengths, interests, and sensory needs, and shape our time together around them. This approach works well for all children, including those with low support needs (ASD/ADHD/AuDHD), as it centres on what genuinely engages and motivates them.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi! 😊 My name is Valentine, I am 22 years old and a French engineering student. I am currently doing a research internship in genetics in QUT in Brisbane. I have been babysitting since I was 15, so I have over 6 years of experience caring for children of different ages. I am also used to helping with homework, daily routines, and organizing fun and educational activities. In addition, I have experience teaching English in France up to post-secondary level, which has helped me develop strong communication and tutoring skills. I am responsible, reliable, and very comfortable with children, partly because I also have two younger sisters. Due to my internship schedule, I am available in the mornings/evenings and on weekends, and I am flexible for occasional babysitting. I speak both French and English essentially, and I always aim to provide a safe, calm, and positive environment for children. Feel free to contact me if you are looking for a babysitter 😊
