Babysitters in Eltham, VIC

Hi! I’m a 19 year old who absolutely loves spending time with children and making sure they feel safe, happy, and supported. I’m currently studying a Bachelor of Animal and Veterinary Biosciences with the dream of becoming a vet — caring for both animals and people has always been such a big part of who I am. I have even fostered multiple litters of kittens through the RSPCA, which was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had. I have spent time doing work experience at a childcare centre, where I looked after children of different ages, joined in on games and creative activities, reading to them, outside play, and keeping things tidy and organised. Getting to observe the childcare educators and how they interact with the children taught me valuable skills and insights into supporting kids in a positive and caring way. It really showed me how much I enjoy spending time with children and that this is something I really would love to be doing day to day. I have my P2 driver’s licence and my own car, so school/daycare drop-offs, pick-ups, and outings are no problem. I’m also happy to help around the house with cooking, light cleaning, or anything else that makes life a little easier for your family. My university schedule is quite flexible during the week, and I’m also available on weekends. I’m reliable, caring, and always bring a positive attitude. I’d love the chance to get to know your family and be someone you can trust to look after your children!!

I'm a 23 year old part time nanny. I am the oldest of ten cousins in my family, and also have a younger brother, and I really enjoy working with children. I charge $25/hour on weekdays and $50/hour on weekends and after 10pm, however those rates are flexible, I want to make sure each family is paying an amount that is sustainable for them. I have a certificate in First aid training - HLTAID002 - Provide basic emergency life support.

Hi! My name is Eliza, I am currently studying at La Trobe Uni and I am looking for a lovely family to nanny for. I have many years of experience working with children through Holiday programs, Swimming teaching and Gymnastics coaching. I usually work with kids aged 2-12, but I am happy to work with children aged younger and am always eager to learn! I am happy doing morning, day and evening care. I do not have a car, but I am happy to school drop off's and pick up's if they are in walking vicinity or if there is a car provided.

I’m 18 years old and currently work in before and after school care. I’m passionate about working with children and am studying a Bachelor of Child Psychology alongside a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. This means I bring both practical experience and a strong understanding of how children think, feel, learn, and grow. I hold a current Working With Children Check and a valid police check. I love creating a warm, fun, and safe environment where children feel respected and engaged, balancing play with meaningful learning experiences that support their development and emotional wellbeing.

I have a soft spot for children and a genuine passion to care for them. Coming from a big family, I always find myself in situations where I am responsible for the care of others. This has taught me how to be responsible and shaped me into the person I am today, and I am forever grateful to them for that. I love art and being creative, as well as being outdoors, and finding fun in every situation. I want your children to feel comfortable and happy but above all, I prioritise their safety. I believe in open communication and collaboration with parents to ensure a positive experience for everyone. I am comfortable with light housekeeping and a massive foodie, so happy to whip up some yummy, healthy meals for the little ones! I pride myself on being dependable and punctual, so you can have peace of mind. I have my drivers license and I live locally so am available on short notice! If interested, I can provide references on request. I understand the importance of finding someone trustworthy and caring to look after your precious ones and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and provide a wonderful babysitting experience!

I am a positive, enthusiastic and outgoing person, who finds caring for kids the most rewarding and enjoyable job in the world. I’ve learnt patience and empathy through caring for kids, and the importance of being warm and understanding as at the end of the day, these are childrens minds and hearts I am helping to grow, which is an amazing thing to get to experience. I love outdoor sensory play, trips to the park or taking the baby for a walk in the pram, quiet time reading books, arts and craft as well as baking with the kids. I aim to foster a creative and fun space, but also a deeper relationship where they can trust me. I‘m super clean and organised, and have no problem doing housework, cooking meals, cleaning up after play and have experience with school drops-offs/pick-ups. I am cpr trained as a mandatory requirment through becoming a swimming instructor and i understand the importance of maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for a child, and aim to prioritise that fully.

Hello there! Please note that I am currently in Hurstbridge, but will be moving to Coburg in September :) I'm currently seeking a part-time or casual nanny position after the family I’ve been working with moved out of town. I have over a decade of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, and I’ve formed long-term, trusting relationships with families I’ve worked with. I frequently step in as auntie for close friends and family, and have a step-daughter of my own too, and I also work as a kids’ party, workshop and play space facilitator, fuelling my passion for supporting self-expression, learning, empowerment and play. In other words, I love kid's and am very experienced! Prior studies in yoga and eastern philosophies, and my current focus on counselling and psychology, along with personal experience navigating mental health and neurodiversity, have contributed greatly to my ability to understand and attune to and communicate well with children. I have a high capacity for providing emotional support, practicing non-violent communication and staying calm and regulated in stressful situations. My priority is to foster a mutually safe, trusting relationship with children and their families, and to nurture emotional regulation and connection, ensuring children feel seen, heard, and respected, as well as being a positive role-model. I bring a playful and creative spirit, with a love for exploration, adventures and cozy moments at home. I enjoy cooking, baking, making music, arts and crafts, and exploring nature, museums, playgrounds, libraries, galleries parks and all whatever adventures one could go on! I'm confident with taking the lead, planning activities, engaging in play and coming up with ideas that encourage joy and learning. I'm also a big fan of child-lead play and enjoy discovering and nurturing whatever sparks the child's interest and enthusiasm, and I find it very rewarding being a part of nurturing a child's interests and talent. I’m very happy to assist with daily tasks like morning and bedtime routines, school drop-offs, errands, meal prep, homework, laundry and general household upkeep. Grossed out by the head lice your kid kindly bought home from kinder? I'll happily take care of that for you too :P I'm very aware of the stress and chaos that can come with juggling work, home and kid's, and take joy in being able to help in whatever ways I can to help take some of the pressure off. Being invited into a child's life to nurture their wellbeing and help them to grow, learn, and enjoy their world is a privilege and a joy, and I look forward to continuing to be a positive, supportive and inspiring presence for the next little human and their family. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile and feel free to get in touch with any questions or to arrange a conversation if we sound like a good fit :)
