Babysitters in Brunswick East, VIC

Hi parents:) I'm Marika, a current undergraduate student at the RMIT. My strongest quality when babysitting is how easy I get along with children, as I am full of energy and optimism. I speak fluent Japanese as well and can teach children a new language if desired while babysitting. My experience with children includes being an older sister to two, an older cousin to over 20, a private tutor outside of babysitting, and volunteer work with children with disabilities. Please get in touch with me if you have any questions!

Hi all! I’m Tilly (24) a psychology living in Northcote (studying online). I am currently working casually as an Allied Health Assistant at a Kids Therapy Hub where we engage with groups in strengths-based play and more, using neurodiversity-affirming practice. I hold a Working With Children Check, National Police Check, Bronze Life Saving Medallion, Child Safety & Wellbeing training, a Full Victorian Drivers' License (clean record) and a 5 seater car. I am happy and capable to assist with homework, music practise or provide tutoring. I can provide references upon request. I bring engaging and flexible care, drawing off my own hobbies, like crafts, cooking, music, outdoor play, and imaginative games — while keeping routines calm and consistent. I’m a good home cook and can happily do meals for kids and families, can also very easily cater to diet restrictions and allergies. Around the home I very rarely need instruction and am a great multitasker so always happy to help however I can - cleaning, dishes, laundry, pickups, meal pre, washing, cooking planned outings - you name it :) I study online, so my schedule is very flexible and can often help with short notice. I’m calm, punctual, and solutions-focused, the result of a plethora of academic, life and work and experience (including management). Please reach out if you'd like to chat! Cheers - Tilly :)

Hi, my name is Gemma and I'm a 46 years old woman from Barcelona, Spain. I'm available every day and also on weekends (daytime and nights.) I live in Brunswick East but i can move to any area. Nanny is my main job, so I have more than 16 years experience in childcare (specially with babies) in several countries but mostly in Norway where I've been living from the last 7 years. About me, I live travelling, I love nature, I'm vegetarian, photographer and yoga instructor. If you want to know more about me and my childcare experience I can gladly send you my cv and good references from families that I've been working for. Thanks in advance 🙏🏻 G.

Hey! I’m Lisa, 23 and originally from Belgium. I’m a physio and work part-time as a Physio / Pilates teacher, but I’m looking for some extra babysitting hours because I absolutely love being around kids. I’m an active, outdoorsy person who enjoys keeping busy — whether that’s playing games, helping with homework, going for walks, or doing creative activities. Thanks to my physio background, I’m also CPR and first aid certified, so safety is always a priority. I’m more than happy to help with a few household tasks like cooking, cleaning, ironing, or tidying up. I don’t have an Australian driver’s licence right now, but I’m totally fine to walk or bike for short trips or fun outings with the kids. I’d describe myself as positive, caring, and easygoing, and I’m hoping to find a warm family who values the same. If you think we could be a good match, feel free to reach out — I’d love to have a chat and see if it clicks!

Hi Parents, I'm Misha – a 25-year-old university student with over 4 years of casual, part-time, and full-time nannying experience.

I have a Graduate Diploma of Education, an Honours degree in psychology, and several years' of experience working with children aged 0-5 in kindergarten and long daycare settings. I have also worked with primary school-aged children as a nanny/babysitter, and I have an 11-year-old. I am patient, kind, and joyful, and I love working with children. Some of my favourite activities to do with children are reading books, playing games, making art, exploring the outdoors, and going on outings to places like the museum. I am happy to follow the interests of each child, whether it be reading the same book 20 times or getting on my hands and knees to play with them. My own interests include swimming, yoga, meditation, art, travel, and playing guitar. I choose not to work with children when they have infectious illnesses, because I have asthma. I can cook, clean up after children (with their help when appropriate), and help with light tasks, eg laundry, but not heavy cleaning or washing a preexisting pile of dishes. I currently have flexibility with times, so feel free to reach out even if my schedule doesn't say that I'm available.

Hello! My name is Abbie, I am a qualified Early Childhood educator and Teachers Aide with over 5+ years of experience. I have such a passion for working with children and love to learn and grow with them. I always strive to foster a fun, loving, and safe environment. Over the last year and a half I have been nannying whilst studying for a Bachelor of Psychology and Criminology. I have had the pleasure of working with 3 beautiful families. The children’s ages ranged from 6mnths to 4 years old. Throughout the last 5+ years I have thus gained experience in settling, making bottles, transitioning to solids, changing nappies, helping children reach their milestones and creating age appropriate activities that are fun, safe and loving whilst working with families to ensure their children are under the best care; tailored to their needs. I also have experience with older children after working in a primary school and of course having younger siblings of my own! I love taking the children out for adventures to the Zoo, Aquarium and Museum! But we also love creating at home, visiting local parks and exploring our own back yards! I am also happy to help around the house and ensure that the household runs smoothly. I am also happy to provide excellent references.

I have experience with casual babysitting, have worked at camps supporting boys aged 10–25, and have facilitated children’s programs in a previous role at an allied health clinic. I’m confident, patient, and able to manage a variety of needs and personalities. I’m also very comfortable with routines like playtime, bath and bedtime, and light household tasks. I live independently, so I’m responsible, mature for my age, and well-organised. I’m also a big animal lover—so happy to help in a household with pets! I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, caring, and fun environment for your children. My hourly rate is negotiable depending on the role and needs.

I’ve had the pleasure of babysitting for three regular families, all of whom have given me wonderful feedback. I love getting to know each child and choosing games and activities that fit their unique interests.
