Babysitters in East Melbourne, VIC

I have over four years of hands-on babysitting experience caring for young children, including long-term work with a family of three children of varying ages. In this role, I was responsible for managing daily routines such as preparing meals, supervising playtime, and assisting with homework, as well as more hands-on care including bathing, dressing, and getting the children ready for bed. I am confident in maintaining structured evening routines, ensuring children are settled, comfortable, and ready for sleep on time. I prioritise creating a calm, safe, and supportive environment while balancing fun and discipline. Through this experience, I have developed strong multitasking skills and the ability to adapt to each child’s individual needs. I also have personal experience helping care for my younger brother, which has further strengthened my patience and sense of responsibility.

Hi! I am originally from California and am currently living in Melbourne. I have over 15 years of childcare and education experience. I love engaging children in fun ways based on their interests and get pure joy from the sound of children's laughter.

I am a friendly, reliable, and caring individual with experience in education, childcare-related interaction, and customer service. I have worked as an English conversation instructor, teaching primary school-aged children, as well as a barista and a retail assistant in a busy butcher shop. I enjoy working with children and creating a positive, safe, and supportive environment for learning, play, and daily routines. I am confident communicating in both Japanese and English and can adapt well to different ages and individual needs. I am currently based in Melbourne, available to start work immediately with flexible availability. I am also willing to obtain a Working With Children Check (WWCC) if required.

🌺 Hello and Welcome to April's Pro PlayCare 🌺 A little about myself, I’m originally from Northern California and spent the last seven years living in Hawaii where I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology as well as taking three years of American Sign Language. I am eager to learn Auslan and continue my education in sign language. I made the move to Melbourne July 2025 to begin an exciting new chapter with my husband, who was born and raised here. We currently live near Albert Park Lake with our loving cat. I enjoy reading, taking walks, and continuing my yoga practice as I have done for the past fifteen years. Over those fifteen years, my work has always been centered around caring for children. I began as a babysitter, then found a job as a swim instructor (teaching all ages, from babies to adults). For the past seven years, I’ve specialized in supporting children with special needs, both one-on-one and group settings, in home and community environments. My work has focused on helping kids learn, grow, communicate, and thrive through compassionate care. In addition, I have completed my WWCC, police check, and hold my own ABN. That being said, I am comfortable tracking hours, writing up contracts, and providing weekly invoices for services provided. I have been working here since August 2025 with an amazing family that have two kids aged 3 and 11 months in Malvern East. I am grateful to have found such a loving family to help me continue to build my business and use my knowledge gained from my studies at University of Hawaii. I’m looking to increase my work hours and am available Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays, and occasional weekends. I would be happy to provide a letter of recommendation from the family I am currently with. *One last note... I don’t currently have a car, though I’m confident commuting via public transport. Thank you for taking your time to read about me. Message if you have any additional questions and I look forward to hearing about you and how I can help :)

Hello, I am Naty, I am 25 years old and although it sounds incredible I have 10 years of experience taking care of children between my nephews, cousins, casual jobs as a babysitter/nanny and also, I was an Au pair in United States for two years. I love taking care of the little ones, and I feel a real passion doing it with all I can.

Hi, I'm Sabrina! I'm stocked to introduce myself as a prospective babysitter, and I'm excited about the opportunity to work with your family. With a lifelong passion for working with children, I've been an unofficially babysitter to my baby sister since I was 10 years old and have been the go-to unpaid babysitter for my younger cousins. Additionally, I've worked at a preschool, organized summer camp activities, and worked with children aged 3 to teens. These experiences have not only honed my skills but also deepened my love for creating engaging and nurturing environments for kids. The kids I've worked with would likely describe me as the "coolest and most fun teacher" - an empathic listener, a great storyteller (I'm also the author of two books!), and maybe a bit of a softie when it comes to board games (I like to let them win!). My sister, on the other hand, might offer a more critical perspective, but I'm sure she'd agree that I'm responsible, ensure things don't get out of control, and prioritize her well-being including limiting screen time and making sure she eats and sleeps on time! As a babysitter, I'm committed to creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for your little ones. I'm passionate about getting to know each child as an individual and tailoring my approach to meet their unique needs and interests. I'm enthusiastic about the opportunity to work with your family and would love the chance to discuss how I can contribute to your child's care and development. Thank you for considering my application! Best regards, Sabrina Fernandez

Hi parents, I've worked as a nanny for more than 10 years, caring for babies under one and older children too. My related experience includes support for people with disabilities, and residential care work with young adults, children, and families. I'm formally trained in visual art, and have maintained my art practice part-time. More recently, I've also studied horticulture. As a nanny, I appreciate assisting with children's developmental stages, enjoying reading to them, and art and craft activities. I value excursions to Melbourne's great sites, including Melbourne museum, Botanical Gardens, etc - and just getting outside to the local park!

The sheer delight and wonder children express while exploring their environment and learning about themselves is a real joy and great aspect to being a nanny! I’m a competent cook and happy to do occasional evenings for families I work with. Thank you, Isobel
