Babysitters in Altona, VIC

Hello, I am Mia, I am a paediatric physiotherapist and a responsible and caring babysitter with 9 years of experience. I have worked for over 60 families and I will be more than happy to give you my references. My primary experience is with children as young as 4 weeks old to 2yo, I’m comfortable and experienced with newborns, but I looked after kids of all ages, up to 13yo (mostly 3yo to 9 yo). I have also looked after twins, and up to 7 children at a time, as well as being a summer camp leader. I love cooking and doing motor activities (obstacle course is my specialty- it's my job!) and creative activities with kids! Happy to help with homework too. I don’t mind doing some light house work when kids are asleep. I have a car and a licence and I’m comfortable driving with kids in the car. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and ready to make your little ones feel comfortable and happy while you're away! I look forward to meeting you! I have WWCC, NDIS, police check, first aid and CPR and I am a super fan of gentle education and of Montessori activities, I’m very calm and patient, but also very fun!

I've been a sports coach for the last 13 years, working in both schools and clubs. I'm looking for a career change, and whilst I am in this process I am hoping to pick up some casual babysitting work to fund general life. I have about 10 years of experience as a babysitter and 2 years as a nanny.

Competent and caring individual seeking meaningful employment alongside freelance design & illustration work - I love getting the colouring pencils out with my (many) young nieces and nephews. I hold both a valid drivers' license and AU police check, as well as a current UK DBS check. My hours are flexible, and I am happy to work both before school and after 6pm. I would love to organise a call to answer any questions you may have.

Hi All, My name is Lola and I have an extensive background in private full time care/ nannying/ tutoring with children ages 0-15 years, including those with high and or special needs. I also have a strong background in corporate, including property, courts/legal, medical and private business ownership. I have strong knowledge in childhood development and although my corporate career is well established, I find greater joy and passion in nannying, babysitting and childcare. I am also happy to assist in running a household, with tasks such as cooking and general cleaning/tidying and or light errands. I have a knack for interacting with anyone and everyone from the old to the young. I will honour and take interest in your child’s interests, likes and dislikes as well as your rules and preferences as their parent/s. I hope to have the chance to not only look after them but introduce them to new fun facts, interests and or hobbies. -Lola :)

Hello there! A little about me: I’m a compassionate, friendly, and caring person who is responsible and patient. I have a high spirit and a passion for life, remaining optimistic at all times. I am determined and confident in my abilities. Helping children grow in a healthy, happy, and safe environment is very important to me and comes naturally. I believe in educating children about right and wrong, as well as instilling great manners, which I encourage strongly. I have worked for many families in Australia and overseas, and I have also raised my own four children, including a set of twins, who are now wonderful young adults—educated, intelligent, and well-respected individuals (though I may be biased!). Throughout my many years of experience, I have cared for over a dozen families and have also worked with children who are hard of hearing, autistic, or battling leukemia. In addition to childcare, I do light housekeeping, including cooking and baking, which I truly enjoy, although it depends on the time available. I’m happy to assist with all ages of children; they are all lovely and unique in their own ways, and each presents its own delightful challenges. My previous occupations, aside from being a nanny, include laboratory assistant, fitness instructor, hospitality worker, caterer, receptionist, retail manager, administration officer, and integration aide. Although I am 58 years old, I am full of energy, fit, and healthy, and I embrace a healthy lifestyle, which keeps my outlook on life youthful! I have excellent references from previous and current employers who can verify my experience and work ethic as a nanny and educator. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss your family's needs. I look forward to hearing from you! Many thanks, Maria 😊

Hi, i'm out going and i love working with children! I have been nannying for 20 years now and love it, I couldn't imagine doing anything else! All my positions have been long term and i am experienced with all age groups, from newborn twins to early teens. Look forward to hearing from you soon! 😊

Hello, My name is Huguette, I love babysitting, I have a strong background in child care and a genuine love for children, I am confident in my ability to provide a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for your little ones. During my previous role as a babysitter, I gained valuable experience in managing diverse needs of children from ages 4-13 year old. My responsibilities included organising creative activities, educational games, and outdoor play that helped in the children's developmental growth. I also assisted with homework and provided tutoring in subjects such as French, English and Math, leading to noticeable improvements in their academic performance. I am known for my patience, flexibility, and ability to calmly handle unexpected situations. My first aid and CPR certifications ensure that I can provide immediate and informed responses in case of an emergency. Additionally, I have received positive feedback from parents for my dedication to maintaining a consistent routine and clear communication. I am eager to discuss how my background, skills, and enthusiasms can meet the needs of your family. Thank you Huguette

Hi I am Evelyn (Evie), I am currently a university student, completing my Bachelors of Veterinary and Wildlife Science, and volunteer at a cat shelter when I can. I enjoy lots of hobbies and am always eager to learn new skills, I enjoy reading, nature especially animals, as I hope to be a future Veterinarian, and mini craft tasks to calm the mind, to name a few.

Thank you for your interest and consideration on me. My name is Miluska, I have qualified and formal education and experience in Special and Disability Education (also Community Welfare and Aged Care). I am a teacher (Bachelor Degree) for children with special needs (in Perú we named it: "Special Education Teacher"); also Nanny/AuPair with several and wide capacitation, trainning and experience (covers CPR, pool lifesaver, basic physical rehabilitation, first aid, pets care; activities as handicraft, bakery and others). I would like to work with babies, pre-kinder children and toddlers but on my among previous tasks and experience I have had the opportunity to take care children up to 12 years old. Everyone is unique and important besides,my background makes it possible and that makes me feel happy, confident and sure about my vocation and love for teaching and sharing with children every day. Prior to my arrival to Australia in 2007, I’ve been working as a Teacher of Special Education in Lima (Peru), focusing in early stimulation, behavior development and rehabilitation; as well performing as volunteer with several institutions like Association of Special Olympiads of Peru (for 9 years). I believe that my teaching experience (as a specialist helping and educating children and young people suffering from Autism and Down syndrome) has provided me with invaluable insight into interpreting the learning and emotional needs of individuals in general and specially babies and toddlers. I received my Diploma IV of Community Welfare in Community Services in April 2010 and Certificate III of Aged Care in December 2010 and as part of my studies in Australia, I completed a number of placements at aged care facilities, including Sacred Heart Mission and Hambleton House. As well, I’ve been performing job positions working with babies and toddlers for long periods of time. I would like to meet you and show you my patience, kindness, strength, dedication and energy that I could share with your children and with all of you. I feel that the basis for a teacher/ nanny and/or aupair is always a professional point of view. I am peruvian and actually living in Victoria (but my grandparents were from Czechoslovakia and Germany, so educated in both ways: with responsibility and affection). I would like to have the opportunity to meet you and demonstrate you the type of person that I am. Among many other things I can teach your children spanish, handicraft, pastrymaking, etc. Please, allow me to introduce myself to you and try to know me. Kind regards. Miluska Dusek

Hi lovely families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ 🌺 I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful independent 30 year old son. I have a positive, upbeat & engaging personality. I was a School Captain & have the ability to get along with all types of people. I have done some voluntary work for Single Family camps creating programs for children at these camps & I was responsible for keeping babies, toddlers & even teens occupied while giving Mum or Dad some much needed respite. This was a fantastic experience & I resided at these 5 day camps solely to help out with the other camp leaders in a Voluntary capacity. I have also worked as a Swimming Teacher with the under 5's which I found very rewarding. In my last 12 years working as a Nanny I have cared for twins, multiple children (up to 8 at one time in total) & children with special needs such as autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, asthma, diabetes, eczema & other challenging health conditions. I'm experienced with new born babies up to teens. I am trustworthy & reliable & known for being punctual. I'm a very good communicator. I’m hard-working, diligent, energetic & enthusiastic and a whole lot of fun! I have trained in nursing and paramedic studies. I have had extensive experience with babies and children dating back to the age of 9 when I babysat the neighbours children (including a couple of newborns!).... in total 15 !! I have always been mature & responsible beyond my years. I have been surrounded by children my whole life including my 4 younger siblings and 30 1st cousins! I was a mother figure to my 4 younger siblings as my mother was working full-time as a Nursing Sister & my father was away from home a lot in his job as an International Airline Captain. I have had a lot of responsibility thrust upon me from a very young age! I am Aunty to 13 nieces & nephews & am very close to them & we catch up on a regular basis. I enjoy the spontaneous and honest interaction that children provide and I find it immensely rewarding knowing that I am able to influence and help a child to learn and grow confidently. I'm fair with a gentle approach & can be firm while teaching boundaries. I believe all children require stability and need to know they are loved and lovable as a basic right. I never cease to be amazed at the lessons that children can teach us adults! I am inspired by the enthusiasm that children have when learning about the world around them. I tend to establish a good rapport with the young ones I care for which I find very rewarding. Children are so precious & truly a blessing to be cherished. Importantly I am pro-active with a 'can do' attitude & I have a keen eye for detail so nothing goes unnoticed! I am very safety-conscious so your childs welfare is of utmost importance to me at all times. I can be flexible with time & I am more than happy to work with you to suit you and your childrens ongoing needs. I also do pet-minding/house sitting (many years now since I was a young girl) & have had a dog walking/dog training gig too so I'm comfortable with all types of pets. I love all animals. 🤗 *Important to know...... I have had my car licence for 40 years & I'm a very cautious driver with a full licence & faultless record with Zero accidents & no demerits! I look forward to meeting you and your precious children. *My rate is dependent on time of day & number of children needing care.
