Babysitters in Hughesdale, VIC

Hi parents! I'm a 22-year-old who loves spending time engaging kids in arts, crafts, reading, writing, and organizing free and structured play. I currently work in OSHC on a couple days among kids aged 3 to 11. We make sure they're well fed and plan activities meant to bring out their best potential! Being able to keep them occupied, even if that means just doing nothing and striking up a conversation out of anything, without them even realizing Mum and Dad haven't picked them up yet, is the most satisfying feeling at the end of each day. That's when I realized what rapport meant. I would describe myself as funny and someone who can think of things on the spot while maintaining the best safety standards.
