Babysitters in Hawthorn East, VIC

Hi families! My name is Charlotte, and I’m a 22-year-old final year student at RMIT University, studying Fashion Marketing. I’m a bubbly, creative individual with a passion for working with children and helping them grow in a fun, nurturing environment. I graduated from Lauriston Girls School in Armadale in 2020, completing the International Baccalaureate. I have over five years of experience caring for children aged 8 months to 12 years. My childcare style emphasises creating an engaging environment tailored to each child’s interests and needs. I enjoy organising hands-on activities, whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, or storytime. I also love incorporating learning into play and can support homework and academic development for school-aged kids. One unique aspect of my caregiving is that I’m trilingual, with my first language being English but also being able to speak Mandarin and Cantonese. I enjoy pilates, traveling, playing with my pets, exploring Melbourne’s parks and spending time with my family and friends. I believe the key to successful childcare is communication and trust, and I’m dedicated to working closely with families to ensure their children feel safe, happy, and supported. I’d be delighted to support your family - please feel free to reach out! 😊

I am a 4th year psychology student with a huge interest in development and children, and a focus in cognitive/social development, and more recently interested in mental health! I enjoy bringing activities that foster creativity, curiosity and learning. I also enjoy planning day activities, cooking and giving a helping hand with homework.

Hi families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ 🌺 I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful independent 30 year old son. I have a positive, upbeat & engaging personality. I was a School Captain & have the ability to get along with all types of people. I have done some voluntary work for Single Family camps creating programs for children at these camps & I was responsible for keeping babies, toddlers & even teens occupied while giving Mum or Dad some much needed respite. This was a fantastic experience & I resided at these 5 day camps solely to help out with the other camp leaders in a Voluntary capacity. I have also worked as a Swimming Teacher with the under 5's which I found very rewarding. In my last 12 years working as a Nanny I have cared for twins, multiple children (up to 8 at one time in total) & children with special needs such as autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, asthma, diabetes, eczema & other challenging health conditions. I'm experienced with new born babies up to teens. I am trustworthy & reliable & known for being punctual. I'm a very good communicator. I’m hard-working, diligent, energetic & enthusiastic and a whole lot of fun! I have trained in nursing and paramedic studies. I have had extensive experience with babies and children dating back to the age of 9 when I babysat the neighbours children (including a couple of newborns!).... in total 15 !! I have always been mature & responsible beyond my years. I have been surrounded by children my whole life including my 4 younger siblings and 30 1st cousins! I was a mother figure to my 4 younger siblings as my mother was working full-time as a Nursing Sister & my father was away from home a lot in his job as an International Airline Captain. I have had a lot of responsibility thrust upon me from a very young age! I am Aunty to 13 nieces & nephews & am very close to them & we catch up on a regular basis. I enjoy the spontaneous and honest interaction that children provide and I find it immensely rewarding knowing that I am able to influence and help a child to learn and grow confidently. I'm fair with a gentle approach & can be firm while teaching boundaries. I believe all children require stability and need to know they are loved and lovable as a basic right. I never cease to be amazed at the lessons that children can teach us adults! I am inspired by the enthusiasm that children have when learning about the world around them. I tend to establish a good rapport with the young ones I care for which I find very rewarding. Children are so precious & truly a blessing to be cherished. Importantly I am pro-active with a 'can do' attitude & I have a keen eye for detail so nothing goes unnoticed! I am very safety-conscious so your childs welfare is of utmost importance to me at all times. I can be flexible with time & I am more than happy to work with you to suit you and your childrens ongoing needs. I also do pet-minding/house sitting (many years now since I was a young girl) & have had a dog walking/dog training gig too so I'm comfortable with all types of pets. I love all animals. 🤗 *Important to know...... I have had my car licence for 40 years & I'm a very cautious driver with a full licence & faultless record with Zero accidents & no demerits! I look forward to meeting you and your precious children. *My rate is dependent on time of day & number of children needing care. As per industry regulations my rate starts at $35-40 per hour & I prefer to work a minimum of 3 hours. As a tutor helping with homework my rate is the standard rate of $40 helping one student. Thank you. ☺️ *My most recent role involved caring for a newborn baby & his toddler brother which I really loved. Their Mum has written an excellent reference that is available for your perusal.* Thanks so much for reading & have a lovely day! Sincerely Yours Fionna

Hi I'm Emma. I'm 20 years old and would love to work with your family. Focused primarily on extracurricular sport activities at a junior and secondary private school, I have gathered lots of relevant skills and experience that I can implement into my job as a babysitter. I think the most important skill I have learnt is finding ways to make education, safety, and 'rules' fun and exciting for children. During my past two years as a netball coach, I have mastered the art of having fun while also making things a learning experience. I have helped solve homework issues, injuries, and friendship problems and taught kids from ages 6 to 16 various life skills, from throwing a ball to applying to their first job. I have also had the pleasure of working at the local uniform store, where I have supported customers through the process of getting school uniforms. This has also come with the challenges of mediating parental and child disputes and supporting kids in overcoming the common body dysmorphia and fears that come with school uniforms. I have a working with children's card, First Aid training, concussion training, CPR training and two years experience working with ages 6-17.
