Babysitters in Gardenvale, VIC

Hi everyone!!! My name is Tess and I just finished school at Loreto Mandeville Hall in Toorak, with a 93.85 atar and awards over for study scores over 40 (Geography, English and Health/Human Development.) I am currently taking a gap year from uni, so I have a lot of time to work. I’ve developed strong communication and leadership skills through school captain roles and community involvement. I have led kindergarten students in skill development and supported various fundraising activities for underprivileged children. As well as having babysitting experience for a range of different aged children all throughout school. I’m confident in handling responsibilities with care and patience as I believe I am a super friendly as bubbly person who loves to meet new people!

Hello, my name is Isaac I am currently 21 years old studying at Monash University, completing a Bachelor of Primary and Secondary Education. I moved from my hometown of Echuca in 2023 and have been living in Melbourne since then. Some of my hobbies include Tennis, Water skiing, Running, the Arts and watching Movies. I’m a dedicated and experienced babysitter with a diverse background in working with children. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of babysitting for multiple families, including those with children who have intellectual disabilities, providing a safe and nurturing environment tailored to each child's needs. Additionally, I’ve spent 7 years teaching dance to children aged 4-12, which has helped me develop strong communication skills, creativity, and the ability to engage children in fun, meaningful activities. I currently work at Caulfield Grammar with their after-school care programs, where I have honed my ability to manage groups, assist with homework, and create a positive, structured environment. Some of the skills that make me a great fit for babysitting include patience, adaptability, excellent problem-solving abilities, and a genuine passion for helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family!

Of course I am supper passionate about children, and have had an enormous amount of work experience with kids of all ages. I have been casually baby sitting since 2020, and have had plenty of experience cooking, cleaning and engaging children in fun activities.  My previous job was a swim instructor, whereby I taught babies in the pool with parents all the way up to 12 year olds.  My aim was to teach basic swimming skills, make children feel comfortable and safe in the water, as well as important water survival skills. Over this role I gained the ability  to control a class of up to 6 children at once. Whilst also maintaining safety in the pool and keeping children engaged. So if you would love some swimming lesson would be happy to do so!

Hi there! I am very excited about meeting and getting to know you. ABOUT ME: I have been providing childcare over the past 22 years, and I have looked after more than 50 children in this time. The last 9 of those years, I have been a Nanny. I have worked with many different families: with 1-4 children; twins with a younger sibling, all girls, all boys, brothers & sisters; with an age range of 9mths - 12 years old. As all children & families are different I like to stay adaptable, to meet the needs of the unique situation. Some children are runners, some are quite contemplators, others always need to be crafting and creating big cardboard constructions, while another is quite happy to sit while colouring in and drawing hrs on end. However they all ask questions non stop, lols. And I love that because of their curiosity, I too learn; from having to google answers to the questions I don’t have answers for, e.g. I now know the oldest living animal is the Greenland shark, and it is guessed to have a lifespan of 250-500 yrs. With the current oldest one guessed to be 300 years old! But I only learned this because one child I looked after LOVED the ocean and all its wonders. :) I find I lean towards the Montessori Method of teaching children. I follow the theme of their current interest for play, games and conversations, and I like to incorporate their current obsession, be it space or dinosaurs into our word & math games and everything else we do together. MORNING ROUTINE; breakfast, lunch boxes, school bag packing, day-care/kinder/school drop offs -For the little ones when at home and not at daycare/kindy. I like to have our week planned. Be it excursions to the zoo, park, an indoor play center, library time or classes that helps their development: that the parents have enrolled them into, or I have found that the Mum’s & Dad’s like; e.g. Gymbaroo, Ready steady go, All Sports etc., to activities we can do at the house like baking or painting or even a playdate with their friend/s. HOUSE MANAGEMENT; groceries, maintenance of pantry & basic medicine (ie expiry dates & organisation), light laundry duties, light house keeping, tiding up after myself & the little ones, keeping the kitchen clean & hygienic, school holiday & pupil free day planning, meal planning, food & meal prep (dietary requirements taken into consideration) multi-tasking and other Ad-Hoc tasks. AFTERNOON ROUTINE; networking with other parents & carers at the children’s school- that the children are friends with or do extra curriculum’s with, extracurricular coordination (this is where the networking can sometimes help with car pooling & swapping weeks), planning of play dates, supervise-assistance with homework and practice for their extra curriculum’s. With additional extras from me if wanted/needed or time permits (eg. Music theory, maths etc.) ***I have help children further develop their music skills with my attention and knowledge than what they get in 1 30min class a week. And I have helped with development of their Math & literacy skills. HOWEVER my proudest achievement was some how managing to help my French charge (when an AuPair in Paris) go from an almost F (from her former AuPair) in her French Class to an A. While I was only at a very basic beginner level with my own French skills. EVENING ROUTINE; Shower/bath time, dinner, oral hygiene, an evening game (if time permits) and attend their unique bedtime routine.
