I am a mother of two little ones Aged 4 and 2 and currently looking for part time work during the day to work around my children. I am an Enrolled nurse but taking some time off to be with my children. We love spending time outside on the weekends and doing little adventures together, making a mess in the kitchen when cooking and swimming in the pool. I would love to care for your little one and hope I sound like someone that would suit your family home.

Hi My name is Barbara; although to many families, I’m known as ‘Nanny Barbs.’  I am an Australian Diploma Qualified Career Nanny and Babysitter. I’ve worked many years in childcare centres, as well as running my own independent Babysitting and Nannying business. I have over 25 years experience with children of all ages; from Newborns (4 days old) to 13 yrs of age. I have supported many families of various make ups, this includes twins (multiples) and Premature Babies. I hold all the following certificates for peace of mind and reassurance you’re in great experienced hands.  Diploma of children services First aid, Asthma, and Anaphylaxis NSW Working with children check  QLD Blue card National Police Check  I also have obtained certificates in many short courses as well to further develop my knowledge in helping care for your precious children. Here are a few to name... All about Infants and toddlers  Learning through developmental milestones and skills Learning through music Road safety  Early years learning framework - EYLF My time our Place (Before and Afternoon school-based)  Behaviour management Developmental learning skills for Ages 0-5yrs. And many more.  I live in Varsity Lakes though I service a 20km Radius of my residential property.  I have my own reliable 7 seater car and full license. I also have multiple different aged car seats installed, in my car to be used as needed. 2x rear or forward facing up to 4yrs and 2x 5 point harness / Booster seats for age 6m - 8+yrs. All these seats are always washed and sanitised after every use and professionally cleaned monthly, Same with my entire car. A child’s Health and safety is always my number one priority as is my own. I am fully Vaccinated against all childhood diseases and illnesses with 10 yearly Updates, including the now Covid 19 plus Boosters. I love taking children that are in my care out on adventures and excursions. As I feel there is so much more for children to learn and develop while outdoors exploring their surroundings. Rather than spending large amounts of time indoors or on electronic devices. Though this all Depends on the current weather of the day and age of the child in my care of course, but Nanny Barbs always has a plan B ready to go for unexpected weather days. I always bring along fun, educational craft, activities, and games. All age appropriate for children in my care. Many older Children always ask “ Nanny Barbs do you have your Special bag today”. As they know it’s full of educational yet fun games and things to work together on.  Whilst caring for children, health and safety is my number one priority, no matter where we go or what we do. One of the sayings I go by is “Your kids are my kids when in my care“. This means I will care for them, educate them, spoil them, love and respect them just as if their parents would as in the end I’m hired to be a reflection of you and lend a hand.  My hours are often flexible and are always molded differently to suit each family; as to me, each family is unique and operates in there own special ways. My babysitting hourly rate starts From $38/hr and My Nannying Hourly Rate starts from $41/hr (pending which of my services you choose from along with other aspects like How many children, public holidays, and more.) public Holiday rate start from $60/hr. Though the services I provide in all categories are worth every cent and more than the hourly rate you’ll pay. I have many years of experience with children of all ages from 4 days old to 13yrs at all times of the day, whether it be mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnights, or even that extra pair of hands as you travel around the world, whether it be for business or personal travel. (I have traveled to many different destinations around the world many times before with many families, so my passport is in date and ready to go.) Nanny Barbs isn’t only there to care for the children in her care. Yes, they are my utmost number one priority but in times when a child is within an independent safe activity (older children) or are sleeping. I don’t just sit around and wait. It’s just not me. You’ll notice on these days, you may have washing hung out or folded, dinner prepared or cooked, dishes attended to, can even help with small business family households with admin work, etc. Pretty much anything I see that needs to be done or you feel you need an extra pair of hands, I will attend to it, so long as your children are cared for first as they are the main priority of my job. There is no challenge too big or too small, I Nanny Barbs will give it her all to attend to it after ensuring your children are well looked after first.  Thank you in advance for taking the time in reading this, I hope it provides some answers to any questions you may have while you’re on the lookout for a reliable, Highly Qualified, trustworthy, honest nanny or babysitter.  I look forward to hopefully hearing from you soon. Many Thanks, Nanny Barbs 💕

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

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 :)
