I’m currently in my second year of medical school at Monash University and hope to become a Paediatrician in the future. I have extensive experience working with children, having worked as a full-time nanny for several years as well as a swimming teacher previously.

Hello! I'm Marcy and I was an English teacher in the UK for four years. As a teacher, I prided myself on creating fun and inclusive environments for my students.

I am now in Melbourne on a working holiday visa, looking to utilise my skills in childcare. I am flexible but I do work at a restaurant some evenings so I might not be available some evenings. I look forward to working with you!
