Babysitters in Fitzroy North, VIC

Reliable and caring babysitter with a responsible and friendly nature. I am currently a first-year Bachelor of Design student at the University of Melbourne and a 2025 graduate of Carey Baptist Grammar School.

I’m a 24-year-old nanny who recently moved to Melbourne and am currently studying Primary Education. I’ve been working as a nanny since I was 18 and have experience caring for children of different ages. Growing up with several younger siblings, I’ve always been very involved in helping care for them especially my youngest sibling who is now 3. This has given me plenty of hands-on experience with routines, play and supporting children’s development. I’m patient, reliable and genuinely enjoy working with kids creating a safe, fun and supportive environment where they can learn, play and feel comfortable.

Hello Parents! Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile:) My name is Marika and I am currently in my final year studying my undergraduate degree.

I am bilingual, very adaptable , action-oriented and love to form meaningful relationships with others.

I have a Graduate Diploma of Education, an Honours degree in psychology, and several years' of experience working with children aged 0-5 in kindergarten and long daycare settings. I have also worked with primary school-aged children as a nanny/babysitter, and I have an 11-year-old. I am patient, kind, and joyful, and I love working with children. Some of my favourite activities to do with children are reading books, playing games, making art, exploring the outdoors, and going on outings to places like the museum. I am happy to follow the interests of each child, whether it be reading the same book 20 times or getting on my hands and knees to play with them. My own interests include swimming, yoga, meditation, art, travel, and playing guitar. I choose not to work with children when they or I have infectious illnesses. I hope to find families who are on the same page about that. I currently have flexibility with times, so feel free to reach out even if my schedule doesn't say that I'm available. I did my first aid, asthma and anaphylaxis 2 years ago, so my CPR is not current. I'm happy to redo the CPR or the full course if necessary.

I'm a caring, energetic, and reliable nanny with over four years of experience supporting families across Melbourne and regional NSW. I genuinely love working with children and creating calm, fun, and engaging environments where they feel safe, confident, and free to learn and explore. My background includes nannying, au pair work, and teacher assistant experience, giving me a strong understanding of child development, daily routines, emotional support, and educational play. I've cared for children from infancy through high school age and am confident with everything, including helping with learning, reading, and gentle behaviour support. I'm also very organised and enjoy helping families in broader household roles. I'm more than happy to support tasks like errands, personal assistant duties, groceries, tidying, scheduling and meal preparation. I love cooking and keeping a home running smoothly alongside childcare. I currently work as a learning assistant and will be starting my Master of Clinical Audiology at the University of Melbourne in February 2026. My availability from then will be flexible and shaped around my university timetable, and I'm very reliable with planning and communication. I hold both NSW and VIC Working With Children Checks, and bring a warm, patient and positive approach to every family I work with. I truly enjoy building meaningful connections with children and supporting parents in whatever way is most helpful. If you're looking for a nurturing, organised and proactive nanny who can also support household tasks, I'd love to chat more!! I am located in Fitzroy North.

I enjoy playing creative games such as interactive story telling and collaboartive drawing exercises. Whilst I'm a qualified psychotherapist and graphic designer I am taking a step back from both these areas to focus on creative projects and am currently seeking a part time, ongoing nannying role and ad-hoc babysitting. In my own time I enjoy reading, painting, drawing, adventures in the outdoors, bike riding, climbing and learning new things.

Hello parents, My name is Tracey, I'm vibrant, energetic and also calm and have a lifelong passion for working with children. From an early age, I discovered my love for caring for babies, toddlers, and young kids at 13 in my hometown of Castlemaine. In my 20s and 30's, I worked in childcare centres before transitioning into a career as a professional musician, alongside raising two wonderful sons who are now 28 and 20. Over the years, I’ve remained deeply involved in caregiving, helping raise my nieces, babysitting for families, and working in aged care as a diversional therapist and a disability support worker. For the past few years, I have been a regular carer for three children under the age of six, further strengthening my hands-on experience, I have also recently nannied and cared for a family with teenage children. I strive to create a nurturing, fun, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and engaged. I believe in the importance of routine, ensuring children are well-rested and happy. I love incorporating creativity and learning into daily activities, whether through reading, music, arts and crafts, puzzles, or imaginative play and love being silly! With my background in music, I enjoy singing lullabies, teaching songs, and use music as a calming tool. I also have a strong focus on health and well-being and love cooking, I come from an Italian background and it would probably be my speciality, however, I can mostly cook anything you require. Light household duties are absolutely fine, as I work best in a clean and organised space. I'm also an animal lover, nature lover and gardener. I would love to find a family where I feel welcome and can make a positive impact in your children’s lives. If you’re looking for a responsible, engaging, experienced mother and caring babysitter, I’d be delighted to chat further. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! Warm regards, Tracey

My name is Daryl — I’m 27 years old and a caring, energetic, responsible, and down-to-earth babysitter/nanny who understands how important it is to find the right person to look after your little loved ones. I’ve had experience caring for children of all ages, including my own niece, and I genuinely enjoy this kind of work. I’ve previously worked with two to three families over extended periods, and seeing the children grow from when I first met them has been incredibly rewarding. I have a dorky love for housework, cleaning and keeping things neat and organised — so you can count on me to help keep things running smoothly at home too. I love helping out and take pride in being a steady, supportive presence — both for kids and for parents who need an extra pair of capable hands.

A little bit about me: I hold a Bachelor's degree in Marketing and Japanese Studies, as well as a Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice (both in WA & VIC). I've spent the past few years gaining experience in both the Real Estate and Marketing industries, which has helped me build strong communication skills, adaptability, and a professional, people-focused approach. In my spare time, I love going to cafes, walking & exploring, cooking/baking, watching movies and reading or learning history, anthropology & architecture.
