Babysitters in Carlton, VIC

I am a caring, reliable, and responsible babysitter with experience looking after children of all ages. I always make sure they are safe, happy, and well cared for. I enjoy engaging kids in fun and creative activities such as reading, drawing, and outdoor play. I can also help with preparing meals, light cleaning, and bedtime routines. Families I’ve worked with describe me as patient, trustworthy, and easy to communicate with. I am First Aid and CPR certified and always aim to create a positive, supportive, and nurturing environment for every child in my care.

Hi! I’m currently studying Fashion Enterprise at RMIT and have been babysitting and nannying for over 7 years. I’ve been lucky enough to care for children of all ages through both agency work and with wonderful families, and it’s something I genuinely love doing. I’m a calm, patient, and reliable person who enjoys getting involved in whatever your little ones love, whether that’s arts and crafts, reading stories, building cubby houses, heading to the park, or exploring the local library or play centre. I have my full driver’s licence and my own car, so I’m always happy to take the kids on fun outings. Having recently moved, I’m hoping to find a lovely family a little closer to home. My biggest priority is making sure your children feel safe, supported, and have lots of fun while we’re together!

I’m a friendly, caring and responsible person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I’m patient, reliable and always aim to create a fun, safe and positive environment. I have experience caring for children of different ages and am comfortable helping with meals, homework, activities, bedtime routines and keeping children entertained. I’m also happy to help around the house when needed. I’m currently studying at university in Melbourne and am looking for babysitting work that fits around my studies. I’m someone you can trust to take great care of your children and make sure they feel happy, comfortable and cared for.

As an experienced Early Childhood Educator and accomplished Musician, I bring over 13 years of expertise in nurturing and educating young children. I am experienced in providing compassionate, individualised support for children with special needs and diverse learning profiles. Skilled at adapting activities, implementing visual supports, and creating inclusive environments where every child can thrive and feel valued. I have recently returned to Melbourne after spending 2 years overseas. Previous to this I worked at Isabel Henderson Kindergarten as an Early Childhood Educator and Music Specialist. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience working with children in a variety of settings, including kindergartens across Melbourne's inner north and as a nanny for several families. I maintain strong relationships with all of my previous employers, who can provide glowing references. I value the importance of my experience and skills, which is reflected in my pay rate. I am happy to assist with cleaning, laundry, and cooking. As a vegetarian, I specialise in plant-based cooking, and my experience with preparing meat-based dishes is limited.

I am 26 years old and currently looking for casual babysitting work to compliment my full-time work. I have been babysitting/nannying for ten years, caring for children ranged from 3 months to 12 years old, and have lots of experience in infant care (bottle feeding, caring during illness, changing, sleep routines, solids etc.) cooking, housework, washing, helping with homework and overnight care (including caring for sick children, doctor and hospital visits etc.). I have also worked as a therapist for children with ASD and a support worker for both children and adults for over five years before completing my masters and starting psychology work full-time. I have a love for music and sport and love to initiate lots of outdoors and creative activities. I am currently looking for casual babysitting to compliment my other income as a child psych. I have my WWC, first aid certificate, and police check, as well as my own car and a clean driving record. Very happy to provide references from various families too!

Hi! I’m Rena, a friendly, responsible and caring 23-year-old based in Melbourne. I’m a creative and bubbly person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children and creating a fun, comfortable environment for them. I’m happy to help with casual babysitting and nannying, including school/daycare pickups, playtime, homework and bedtime routines. I’m reliable, patient and happy to adapt to each family’s routines and needs. I’m looking for casual or regular nannying opportunities and would love to get to know your family!

I’m Alice, 24 and from the UK! I’ve worked as a live in private nanny twice ( still in close contact with the families ) , a kids ski instructor and a kids summer camp / rock climbing instructor. I’ve just moved over to Melbourne to push my art career and hopefully study paramedicine next year! I’m an artist, I love doing creative activities with kids and getting them to use their imagination. I’m working casually at a hostel in the city as a receptionist and house artist/muralist but the schedule/ hours change weekly and I’m hoping to pick up some extra hours outside of this babysitting. I’m super friendly, calm, and always on a mission to make kids laugh. I have my WWCC in Canada but realised that isn’t transferable here so I’m in the process of getting my AU one :) I also have lots of housekeeping experience so I’m happy to help around the house and help prep meals too.

Hi Families! My name is Leila, I am 25, and originally from Scotland! I am a warm, passionate and experienced Early Years (Childcare) Assistant for 2.5 years, a Maths and English Tutor/holiday camp leader for ages 5-15 for over a year. I also hold a BSc (Hons) in Psychology! My job at Thrive childcare and education involved caring for and engaging with children from all walks of life, from the ages of 6 months to 5 years old (A job I absolutely loved!). Day to day, I created and got involved in new and engaging child-centred, creative and imaginative activities both indoors and out. My job also included personal care, such as changing and toileting support and overseeing mealtimes positively and safely. Alongside this, I tutored 5 to 15-year-olds in Maths and English at 'Kevs Class Tutoring', focusing not on academic outcomes but on building trusting relationships with parents and children to build confidence in these subjects. In the holidays, I also assisted in creating and running fun activity day camps for the same children, which was lots of fun! My degree in Psychology really kick-started my interest when learning about child development as part of my course, and the importance of a positive, fun and supportive environment and the carers a child is surrounded with. I absolutely love guiding and engaging children, and I find building relationships with both the children and their families such an important and rewarding part of the job. References for both jobs can be provided upon request. Don't hesitate to reach out if the above seems like a good fit for you and your child/children, I look forward to hearing from you! Best wishes, Leila

Hi there, This is just a small snapshot of one of the people you’re considering trusting with your child. I’m a qualified early childhood and primary teacher with 10 years’ experience working across 0-3 early years, kindergartens, and special education settings. This year I have been working in a Casual Relief teaching position across multiple Primary Schools, to have some flexibility in my days, and explore more dreams, while still doing what I love. My practice is trauma-informed, inclusive, and grounded in safety, connection, and respect. I support children to build confidence, emotional intelligence, and self-regulation through calm guidance, play, and co-regulation. I bring art, music, storytelling, dancing, and laughter into each day - alongside early literacy, numeracy, body safety, sensory supports, and social learning. I’ve worked closely with families and professionals across a range of complex needs, including Child Protection Services, NDIS, Cohealth, and allied health teams. I’ve supported children through challenging behaviours, medical incidents, and big life transitions - always with care, empathy, and professionalism. I also offer homework support up to Grade 6 and love helping children who may need that little bit of extra time, patience, and understanding. Most of all, I aim to be someone both you and your child feel safe with - consistent, kind, fun, and trustworthy. ☺️ P.s. Happy to provide my full resume and family references post initial contact.
