Hi Families! My name is Mia, I’m 22 years old and currently working casually at Bupa in their Medical Visa Department. I’m now looking to fill up my week with some extra nannying work! Before Bupa, I worked as a flight attendant; I’m trained in multiple first aid certifications and confident in handling a variety of situations with calm and care. I’d describe myself as energetic, kind-hearted and always up for a challenge. Being the youngest of five siblings, I’m no stranger to busy households and thrive in lively, dynamic environments! For three years, I worked as a party host at a bowling alley, where I had the joy of looking after children of all ages. It was such a rewarding job creating fun, memorable moments for each child was something I truly loved. If you’re looking for a reliable, creative and caring nanny, I’d love to hear from you!

Takara

Surfers Paradise | 11km

Updated: 30 Jul 25

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

My name is Takara and I am 28. From a very young age, I have always wanted to work with children. I started off as a casual babysitter and worked my way up to running an Out of Hours School Care Program. I love working with children because I get to help them foster skills, learn new things, and watch them grow into the amazing people they are. I also learn a lot from children - they have amazing senses of identity, creativity, and enthusiasm that sometimes, as you get older, you lose parts of. So, not only am I helping them, they are helping me too. I began my journey in childcare as a babysitter around the age of 16 for family and friends, then became a nanny for two children. After finishing high school, I took some time off before starting my Bachelor of Education P-12, a study I have since put on hold to focus on work. In 2020, I started as an Educator in the OSCH sector and worked my way up to becoming a Service Director, managing a busy service with up to 60 children in attendance in a session. I am currently a Project Coordinator for an OSCH Provider, where I plan and develop Holiday/Vacation Care programs for 300 schools across Australia. Outside of work, I love going to the gym, staying active, going to the beach, seeing family and friends, and spending time with my partner. A fun fact about me is that I studied German throughout high school, so I can speak a bit of German.

Dear Family, My name is Kiana, and I am a dedicated and caring individual with a passion for working with children.

Additionally, I have a creative side and enjoy expressing myself through drawing and painting, which I love sharing with kids through arts and crafts.

Hi! I'm Libby! I'm originally from Tasmania but moved to the Gold Coast in February of 2023. I am currently studying Paramedicine, meaning I have my First aid, CPR and Advanced Life support certificate, alongside a police check, working with children and vulnerable people card (blue card). I've always felt a deep joy when working with children, their energy, curiosity and pure zest for life is infectious! Helping them learn, grow and navigate the world is incredibly rewarding. I find it's not just about teaching them, but it's also about learning from them. They teach me to stay open-minded, to be patient and to never lose my sense of fun! Working with children isn't just a job for me, it's a passion! I've had previous work experience working with children as a babysitter and dance teacher. As a dance teacher, I was able to share my passion and love for dance with students of all ages, and groups both large and small, including private sessions. It was amazing to see how much joy dance could create. I was able to witness their growth, not only in their technical skills but also their self-expression and confidence. It was truly rewarding to be a part of that journey. I am patient, empathetic, driven and committed to do my best. I hope you allow me to be apart of your journey too :)
