Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi families! My name is Hannah and I am early childhood diploma qualified educator. I have been working in early childhood centres for 6 years. I was in nursery and toddler rooms for majority of my time. I have also worked in kindergarten and pre prep settings. I transitioned to nannying at the start of this year (2025) and absolutely love it! I come with a wealth of knowledge and experience. I find it an absolute joy to work with children. The children in my care are always in a safe , nurturing and stimulating environment to feel comfortable to explore and grow! I believe family is the most important part of a child’s development. I can’t wait to work alongside a family to help nurture their child’s development and own learning journey! I am now looking for Monday and Tuesday work (full days) 😊

Hi! My name is Olivia, I’m 20 years old and currently studying Nursing and Midwifery at Monash University. I truly love looking after children and enjoy helping families by making life a little easier wherever I can. As the older sister to two younger siblings, I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for kids, alongside my babysitting background. I’m empathetic, patient, and reliable, and I always bring a caring and loving approach to every job. If you’re looking for someone nurturing and trustworthy, I’d love to hear from you! P.S If needed I can get a First Aid Cert (I should be getting one soon due to my course)

Hi there! 👋 I’m Vanessa, an Irish gal who’s been calling Melbourne home for almost three years now! 🇮🇪➡️🇦🇺 I’m 29 years old and currently super flexible, which I absolutely love. I don’t have little ones of my own just yet, but I’m a proud aunty to a wonderful bunch of kids aged 2 to 18 — and just as proudly, an aunty to plenty of fur babies too! 🐶🐱 I’d describe myself as organised, considerate, and deeply compassionate — someone who truly enjoys helping others and keeping things running smoothly. My background is in Film and TV production, where I’ve had the joy of working with both children and pets on set for TV commercials. That experience taught me patience, adaptability, and how to make work both fun and professional. 🎬 Oh, and I also have my Working with Children Check, so you can rest assured that safety and care are always top priorities for me. 💛

Hi, I'm Lucie and I'm 25 years old from the UK but I have been living in Australia for the past 2 years. I am currently based in St Kilda and I'm looking for casual babysitting work. Throughout my time in Australia I have been working as an Au Pair / nanny with 2 different families. Last year I spent 7 months caring for 2 young boys in Queensland and I have just completed 10 months caring and nannying for a 6 year old boy here in Melbourne. These duties included before and after school care ( prep breakfast and lunch boxes, taking and picking up from school, homework, playing, dinner prep and bed time routines). I have also been doing weekend work for other families in between from ages as young as 10 months to 11 year olds. I enjoy activities with the children such as arts, crafts, sports, walking to parks, and games. I believe my confidence with children has exceptionally grown with having 2 years of experience in childcare as well as verbal communication, patience, and creativity. Most importantly the safety and well-being of your child is the crucial factor when working in this sector and I would love to help your families in caring for your children.

Hi, my name is Mariah :) I have just completed my Occupational Therapy degree and have work lined up on Feb 2026 as a new graduate paediatric OT. I am looking for work as a babysitter/nanny, until I start my career as an Occupational Therapists. The reason I decided to pursue Occupational Therapy is because of my passion for working with kids! I was lucky enough to have multiple paediatric placements across the course of my degree, both in private practice and in specialist schools. I have experience working in Kindergartens as an Additional Assistant and worked in both Canada and Scotland as an Au Pair/Live-in Nanny, which was an incredible experience. Au Pair/Nanny Details: Calgary, Canada - 1 year full-time for 1 year with G3/4 and B4/5. Vancouver, Canada - 1 year part-time (before/after school) for G5/6 and G9/10. Scotland - 6mo full-time for a lovely 10-15mo old. London - I also worked as a teaching assistant, which is when I first discovered my passion for working with children :) I love to 'muck-in' with the kids, take them on outings and participate in engaging activities. I will always show respect and compassion towards kids as they navigate their emotions. I am happy to prepare kids meals, do the kids laundry and the night-time routine etc. My previous work experience, coupled with my compassion, enthusiasm, honesty and nurturing nature allows me to build a wonderful rapport with children and parents. I look forward to hearing from you if this sounds like the right fit!
