Babysitters in Altona, VIC

Hi my name is Indi and I am a Diploma qualified Early Childhood Educator and Nanny. I have over 10 years experience in childcare including working as an educator, working as a nanny abroad and within Australia. I am currently employed by a family who I have been working with for the last 4 years . However this year their needs are changing as the youngest will be attending preschool. This means I have more availability ! ( particularly in the July holidays) As a nanny I take initiative to help your household run smoothly. My childcare background means I am able to offer a nurturing environment your child needs as well as implement engaging activities to captivate your child's imagination and allow them to learn through play.

I am Mary and I am a dedicated childcare educator and experienced babysitter with a strong passion for supporting children’s growth and development. Currently working in Kinder 4 at Deer Park Early Learning and Kindergarten, I have over five years of experience in early childhood education. I create safe, nurturing, and engaging environments where children can learn, explore, and thrive. I also provide reliable babysitting services, offering families peace of mind with my warm, attentive, and professional care. I value sustainability, creativity, and meaningful connections in all my interactions with children and families.

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! I currently look after a few families however my calendar has opened for a new family in 2025. I commit to long hour and long term commitment for the year with all of my families. It's important. Currently I cover ages 8 months, 12 months, 2.5 years, 4.5 years and 9 & 11 years olds. I understand the variety of changing developments in children and adapt to these needs. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my entire life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old and up until now as a professional nanny for parents who are doctors, solicitors, engineers, school teachers, marketing specialist and even a CEO. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with human development, of which I have covered extensively. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress and anxiety is about the energy from the nanny/babysitter. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age carer can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I follow routines and set boundaries, (initiated from the parents) for all children because it creates security and trust with them. I participate in both home and outdoor activities and excursions. I can drive my own car (petrol charges incur) or use any parents' cars. I cover household cleaning (light house work: all things kids mess, upkeep where possible in the laundry area, keep kitchen clean) to take the burden away from parents so they can come home to a cleaner environment than perhaps they left it. This is always discussed in detail for any family because I am not a 'house cleaner' I am a Nanny. I am extremely reliable and punctual to enable all parents to relax knowing I will always be there for them. I look forward to hearing from you. Nanny Clare
