Hi, my names Neika I’m 18 & have a genuine love for working with children. I’m mature, reliable & caring.

I am a creative, patient and attentive individual who maintains a strong sense of responsibility. Although I do not have formal experience as a nanny, I have been babysitting for family friends and neighbours for many years, which has given me valuable hands-on experience caring for children of different ages. For several years growing up, I had a nanny who ensured I felt safe, supported and happy when my parents were unavailable. That experience inspired me and gave me a deep appreciation for the important role a caregiver plays in a child’s life. It also strengthened my confidence and interest in working in this field. I am extremely creative and bubbly, and I strive to bring warmth and comfort into every environment I am part of. At the same time, I am dependable, organised and able to remain calm under pressure. I understand the importance of creating a safe and positive space where children feel secure, supported and encouraged to grow.

Hi! I’m Sienna, but everyone calls me CC 😊 I completed school at Carey Baptist Grammar School and I am currently studying Podiatry (Honours). I come from a close-knit family of five and we also have a beautiful border collie, Duke, so I’m very comfortable around dogs. I’ve always loved sport and spent 13 years doing gymnastics, which led me into coaching and judging children aged roughly 3–17. This experience really sparked my love for working with kids and helped me develop strong communication, patience and leadership skills. Over the past two years, I’ve worked as a nanny/babysitter for several lovely families with children of different ages. I cared for a family with three young boys aged 1, 4 and 6, where I helped with daily care, active play, routines and nappy changes for the youngest. I also worked with another family with two children aged 5 and 8, focusing on after-school care, school pick-ups, engaging activities and maintaining routines. In addition, I supported a family with two young girls aged 2 and 6, helping with age-appropriate play, school pick-ups, daily routines and general care. These experiences have made me very comfortable adapting to different family dynamics and needs. Surf lifesaving has also been a big part of my life. I volunteer at Point Leo SLSC, where I patrol the beach and teach children how to swim safely in the ocean and move confidently on the sand. Through this, I have strong first aid and CPR knowledge and feel confident handling responsibility and caring for children’s safety. I’m friendly, hardworking and energetic, and I genuinely love supporting families and spending time with kids. I’m really excited about the opportunity to help out in a welcoming home and be a reliable, caring presence. Based in Toorak and Eltham 😊
