Babysitters in Ferntree Gully, VIC

Hi my name is Georgia and I have a diploma in early childhood education and have been working in childcare for approximately four years whilst also babysitting in my spare time.

I’m an experienced nanny and childcare worker with over 20 years in the industry, as well as a proud mum myself—so I truly understand the complexities of family life. I’m currently looking for 1-2 days a week and would love to find the right family to support. I have a Diploma in Counselling, a Graduate Certificate in Family Violence and diploma in Auslan, along with great references, first aid certification, a police check, a Working with Children’s Check and my own car. I’ve cared for families with up to four children, including one with two sets of twins (6 months and 2 years old!)—so I have no problem managing chaos and juggling multiple things at once! As a nanny, I bring energy, warmth, and fun to every day. I love being outdoors, dancing and singing to music, and taking trips to the beach or on little adventures (train rides are always a hit!). Sometimes, the best moments are the simplest—watching birds fly by, playing in the dirt, or just being in the moment with little ones. I’ve worked with many families over the years, and I truly believe that great communication is the key to a successful nanny-family relationship. I’d love to connect and see if we’re the right fit—looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi there, thanks for reading! I am a final year medical student studying rurally at Unimelb in Echuca. Over my holidays I will be in Brunswick (Melbourne) and am super keen to pick up as much work as possible as I have had placement all year and have been unable to work. I have had years of experience nannying, love spending time with kids and feel confident and comfortable providing care for kids of all ages. In my spare time I love cooking so would love to do that for or with your kids. I have worked in vet clinics for years so am very happy looking after any pets too. If you are wanting to get organised and need full time nannying or something more casual feel free to send me a message and we can work something out. I look forward to meeting you and your kids and having some fun with them. Please note available dates are 24th May - 21st June 2025

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 have also volunteered at a Disability Respite Service, giving me valuable experience supporting individuals with additional care needs. I hold a current Working with Children Check (WWCC) and can provide previous references upon request. I pride myself on being patient, adaptable, and dedicated to creating a fun and supportive environment for every child in my care. With a full Victorian Driver’s Licence and my own car, I can assist with school pick-ups, drop-offs, and outings. I am also happy to follow family routines and help with light household tasks when time permits. I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and provide a caring and engaging experience for your children!
