Babysitters in Fitzroy North, VIC

I am a warm, responsible, and energetic babysitter with a genuine love for children and creating safe, fun environments. I have hands-on experience caring for kids of various ages, engaging them in play, crafts, outdoor activities, and helping with routines like meals, homework, and bedtime. Patient, reliable, and attentive, I prioritize safety, clear communication with parents, and building positive connections with little ones

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 currently have flexibility with times, so feel free to reach out even if my schedule doesn't say that I'm available.

Hi families! My name is Jaimie. I’m an experienced babysitter (5+ years babysitting for so many lovely families). I love playing with playdough, building with boxes, playing sports together, reading stories and going to the playground for a play and a picnic. I’ve just graduated high school, was a prefect (for the social justice portfolio), speak fluent French, can cook and have experience doing high school tutoring. In March, I’m starting Arts Law at Monash Uni. One of the families I was helping just moved back to NZ. I miss them and would love to do lots more babysitting this year!

Hi! I'm Mara and I'm a final year student midwife at ACU. My hobbies are cycling, reading, going to the beach and cooking. I've previously done a science degree at Monash Uni.

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. I love cooking nutritious meals. I come from an Italian background and it would be speciality, however, I can 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

Hi! I’m Meg, I am 26 years old and I am from Bermagui NSW. In my freetime I enjoy surfing, reading, playing cards games/sudoku & seeing live music. I moved to Melbourne in 2024, after living abroad in Rome as a live in nanny for three children aged 3, 5 and 7. I also worked in a playgroup with children under 5 years old. I am currently working part-time as a teachers aide for children with additional needs, whilst also casually babysit. I see childcare as a lifelong profession, and am hoping to finish my bachelor of primary education in Melbourne within the next couple of years.

Hello parents! I'm Kelly. I am a regular ad hoc babysitter for multiple families across Fitzroy, Thornbury, Preston, and Brunswick East, Kew, with kids aged 1 to 11 years old. I am also a regular babysitter for my 4yo niece, who never fails to fill my heart with happiness as she explores the world. Babysitting is a joy, filled with crafts, playgrounds, Disney movies, baking sessions, bike rides, science experiments, and story time. I enjoy cooking and often prepare nourishing meals for the kids. Although my main focus is on giving the kids my full care and attention, I might have time to whip up a meal for parents as well. Warmth, authenticity, and nurturing are my go-tos. I'm all about fostering creativity and curiosity, making every moment a blend of fun and learning. Kids have this incredible knack for reminding us of life's simple joys! I am available evenings, and weekends. I am excited about the opportunity to connect with you and your children ☺️

10+ years babysitting experience! I have a background in occupational therapy but am currently taking a break and studying visual art.

I'm very reliable and will adapt quickly to your established routines. If you are looking for a caring, creative and responsible babysitter please get in touch! - Greta

If you think your kids would benefit from having an older maternal figure in their life look no further. I am 55 and an empty nester that loves children and supporting families. I have experience as a disability support worker and am a professional stage manager and event manager. I recently graduated as a psychotherapist and focused on neurodivergence in children. I am gentle, kind, fun and reliable. My current employees have children that range in age from newborn to nine and they are happy to provide references.

Hi, I’m Alice 👋 I’m a responsible, calm, and caring childcare provider with extensive experience working with children of all ages in both home and structured settings. I’m a University of Edinburgh graduate and have spent several summers working as a camp leader and tennis coach at international youth camps, where I supported children’s wellbeing, routines, and confidence in high-energy, multicultural environments. I’m naturally patient, attentive, and grounded, and I place a strong emphasis on creating a safe, relaxed space where children feel comfortable and supported. Alongside play and activities, I’m very reliable with routines such as meals, homework, bath time, and bedtime. I take safeguarding seriously and always aim to communicate clearly and thoughtfully with parents. My background in sports coaching, hospitality, and pastoral care has helped me develop a calm, adaptable approach — whether caring for younger children or engaging older ones with activities and structure. I’m active, outdoorsy, and creative, but equally value quiet time like reading, drawing, or winding down at the end of the day. Parents often describe me as trustworthy, present, and easy to feel at ease with — and I genuinely enjoy building positive, respectful relationships with both children and families.

Hiya, I’m currently studying nursing online with the aim of applying to university next year. I have a flexible schedule and am available at various times throughout the week.

Hi parents! I'm 21, live in Fitzroy North and am keen for casual or part time babysitting/nannying as I love hanging out with kids and have had many, many great experiences.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Hi there, I am a 31 y/o speech pathologist by day, working in a school with children with disabilities and am wanting to get back into the babysitting world that I've had over 15 years of experience in, on a casual basis. I started babysitting in high school and began nannying once finished. I have done long term nannying, doing 12 hour days for 2 kids from the ages of 1.5 and 4, for 5 years. I'd be available from 5:30am-7:45/8am weekdays, and from 5:30pm most weeknights (from 4pm fridays) and weekend days

Hi there! My name is Eliza and I am a 22 year old ski instructor and student at Melbourne Uni. Ski instructing has taught me so much about working with children and providing a safe environment for fun adventures. I have a calm and caring nature and will enthusiastically chat with your child for hours about Bluey, Paw Patrol and Frozen, play games, do craft, take them out to the park and to after school activities. I love bringing out the creativity in children and encourage them to spend time outside (and not on screens). I have a current first aid certificate and a working with children check. From ski instructing I have gained extensive experience providing first aid and keeping kids safe and happy. Last year I cared for a family with three kids (ages 7, 4 and 2) for four afternoons per week. I would pick them up from school and daycare and do their evening routine with them, including feeding them dinner, helping with readers and getting them ready for bed. I would cook dinner and also did any house chores or errands needed. I have previously looked after a family with three boys for five years since the youngest one was born so I have experience with very young babies, toddlers, preschoolers and primary school kids. Next year I will be starting my Masters of Primary Teaching and have done work experience in two different primary schools and in a daycare. I also have experience tutoring and am happy to help with any school work. I speak English, Italian and a bit of French. Let me know if I sound like a match to care for your little ones!

Hi! I’m a friendly and reliable nanny with four years of experience caring for a girl from age five to nine.

I’m currently studying and working part time, and I’m looking for some extra part-time or casual nanny work. I’m easygoing, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and helping out where needed :)
