Babysitters in Essendon Fields, VIC

A bit about me. I am composer, vocalist, pianist and producer studying part time and enjoying looking after my 6 month old pup! I have love for nature and animals, as well as working with and caring for children of all ages. As a 34 year old, I have 15 years experience babysitting and nannying. I au paired in Berlin for two years, and have many references upon request! I like to bring joy, kindness, routine and wholesome interactions, limiting the use of screen time where possible and encouraging engagement in play, learning, relaxing and conversation, meeting each individual where they are at with gentleness and respect. Over the years I have stayed with the same families, and have watched incredible little humans become big grown ups! At this point in time, I am finding much more space for opening up to new families to begin the journey with again. 🙂

Hi! I'm Ash. I have been nannying since 2016 and absolutely love it! I left my last full-time nanny role in August to start working a 9-5 in my career as a photographer. However, I have been missing nannying SO much. I'm hoping to find some after work shifts or the occasional weekend for a beautiful family! I bring with me years of experience with children from newborn age-11 years from positions as a live-in nanny, oosh, agency and full time nannying. I’m fun-loving, deeply caring & responsible with so much love to give your littles. I have employee WWCC & First Aid. Willing to obtain a police check. I look forward to meeting my next wonderful family! <3

Hi! I’m currently undertaking a Master of Speech Pathology after having taught in a Primary School setting for the past 14 years. I grew up in Country Victoria, and have two younger sisters, both of whom have children of their own. Whilst completing my teaching degree I looked after two young girls, who were aged 2 and 4 at the time.

Hello there! A little about me: I’m a compassionate, friendly, and caring person who is responsible and patient. I have a high spirit and a passion for life, remaining optimistic at all times. I am determined and confident in my abilities. Helping children grow in a healthy, happy, and safe environment is very important to me and comes naturally. I believe in educating children about right and wrong, as well as instilling great manners, which I encourage strongly. I have worked for many families in Australia and overseas, and I have also raised my own four children, including a set of twins, who are now wonderful young adults—educated, intelligent, and well-respected individuals (though I may be biased!). Throughout my many years of experience, I have cared for over a dozen families and have also worked with children who are hard of hearing, autistic, or battling leukemia. In addition to childcare, I do light housekeeping, including cooking and baking, which I truly enjoy, although it depends on the time available. I’m happy to assist with all ages of children; they are all lovely and unique in their own ways, and each presents its own delightful challenges. My previous occupations, aside from being a nanny, include laboratory assistant, fitness instructor, hospitality worker, caterer, receptionist, retail manager, administration officer, and integration aide. Although I am 58 years old, I am full of energy, fit, and healthy, and I embrace a healthy lifestyle, which keeps my outlook on life youthful! I have excellent references from previous and current employers who can verify my experience and work ethic as a nanny and educator. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss your family's needs. I look forward to hearing from you! Many thanks, Maria 😊

I'm a happy, kind, open-minded, nature-loving person, that's me! I have experience as a babysitter, especially from taking care of my little brother from the day he was born until he turned 11. I cooked meals, picked him up from school, played with him, and helped with his homework. Many times, I also looked after him and his friends as we used to play together at the playground or enjoy sports. I also have an experience taking care of a 1 year-old toddler during her parents are away. I love singing, playing the guitar or ukulele, and drawing beautiful nature scenes. To me, kids are wonderful little creators. I really enjoy playing with them, coming up with fun games, and watching how they express their ideas. With the experience I have, I can give parents peace of mind, knowing their children are safe, happy and free to be creative every time we are together!

Hi my name is Olivia :) I have been travelling Europe for the past 7 months and got back on the 12th of February and I am now seeking some more employment involving working with children. I have over 4 years of nanny experience. Doing gigs ranging from short to long term help and casual covers Previously to my travels I looked after a gorgeous boy for a year who turned 2 while I was looking after him. I really enjoyed this and had a lovely bond but unfortunately his family moved to Perth. The hours were 8-6pm and I am looking for something similar. Prior to that I nannied casually for a 2 and a half year old boy who I took to the pools often due to my experience with swim teaching (this job was for a few months). Another family of two girls; a 6 month year old and 4 year old who needed my help for 3 months while their old helper was away. A german family who I’ve a good relationship with and nannied for them on two different occasions (a few months stint each time) who stay in Melbourne for a bit to visit family. (They were 6 months and 2 years old the first time and 2 and a half and 4 the following) Before some travels I did in 2022, I looked after a young girl around one years old for 6 months which was also long houred days of 8-5pm. Those two gigs were under an angency called The Reinforcement nannying agency. Which no longer runs. I have been a children's swimming teacher for Elite Swimming where I dealt with a wide range of ages typically (2-13 years old) in group and private situations. Prior to starting nannying 4 years ago i did casual baby sitting for 6+ years for local families where I first gained experience with kids varying ages. I am the second oldest out of four girls and therefore I am very family orientated and have grown up in a household surrounded by other kids which has taught me a lot of valuable skills such as communication and patience. I am currently taking a break from uni, however i was studying a bachelor of science at Monash. I am a very caring, energetic, friendly person who is a reliable, confident, and flexible worker. I believe I have a nurturing nature and genuinely love being around and caring for kids. I love planning activities, playing outside, reading etc. I love being able to watch a child I look after flourish and development into their own unique character. I also am more than happy to help out with cleaning up around the house, preparing meals, bathing etc. A bit about me: I love playing sports (netball and football), being in nature, cooking, listening to music, leading an active lifestyle as well as partaking in spontaneous activities with my friends and always trying and learning new things! I am more than happy to give anymore information required by potential employers and provide parent references. I recently refreshed my first aid, I have a car and have a WWCC. Rates wise: When looking after two children I have typically recieved an additional $5 per hour.
