Babysitters in Elsternwick, VIC

Hi, I'm Jen and I trained as a Mothercraft Nurse/Endorsed Enrolled Nurse and Early Childhood educator. I have been working with children for over 40 years and specialise in caring for newborns. I am available casually for nannying & babysitting. Available now. I have a Bachelor of Education and have extensive experience in tutoring children from age 3-18. I returned from Moscow, Russia at the end of 2016 where I was the lead teacher, Nursery class, at the English Nursery School, for 8 years. In 2018 I spent 6 months in Cremona, Italy helping to set up a brand new bilingual kindergarten. I am enthusiastic, hard working and energetic with a good sense of humour! I have a current Level 2 First Aid Certificate, Police check and Working with Children check and previously held registration as an endorsed enrolled nurse. I also work casually via the Mable platform for clients with a disability. I successfully completed a Certificate 3 in Pathology Collection at Holmesglen in 2024 and am about to retrain as an Endorsed Enrolled Nurse. Hope to hear from you! (Fully vaccinated including 4 boosters against Covid 19).

Hey there, My name is Chloe and I've been nannying/babysitting for many years around the Bayside area. I nannied full-time for two seperate families between June 2017 and August 2019 whilst completing my undergraduate studies, and have babysat for various families in the area since 2016. I grew up in a big extended family (on both sides), and have always been surrounded by kids, toddlers and babies. I studied Nursing/Midwifery for a year after school, and whilst this wasn't the career for me in the end, I learnt a great deal in that year. I'm still very interested in childhood development and love getting to know kids of all ages; I think they can teach you great perspective and how to enjoy the little things in life. I also became an Auntie in 2023 and have been helping my brother and SIL out with the little one, so I’m very comfortable with babies now! My gorgeous niece is now 16 months old :) I'm also involved in a school tutoring program for children living in the Collingwood and Richmond commission housing through Operation Stitches and am finding this extremely rewarding to be a part of. I tutor two Year 6 kids and it's been fantastic to watch them grow in both confidence and skills throughout the school year. A bit about me - I love to get out in nature as much as possible, enjoy gardening and tending to my ridiculous amount of indoor plants! I'm a huge animal lover, and volunteer with a rescue organisation which I absolutely love; they have a farm sanctuary in the Yarra Valley which I try to get to once a fortnight. I also love to cook, head on walks with my 6 yo dog and I certainly get around a board game! Regarding my availability, I work 4 days a week at a sustainability consulting firm - so I'm only available during the day on Fridays, as well as night time and on the weekends. I have a WWCC, Police Check and First Aid and am happy to provide all of this to you if you'd like. I can also provide you with references, both current and past families. Feel free to get in touch! Thanks, Chloe
