I'm an international student from Mongolia who adores children. I've spent a lot of time looking after my younger cousins, so I'm very confident in my babysitting skills. I don't have any bad habits, and I genuinely enjoy caring for children.

Hi there! filled with a nurturing spirit from growing up in a pediatrician's home. As an Aupair in the USA, I managed a household, ran errands, family gave me a truck for them and to pick up and drop off kids at school, and created lasting memories with two delightful kids (5 years and 18 months). In Canada, I cared for a newborn until my journey brought me to Australia. Beyond being a nanny, I see childcare as an art—I love learning from kids as much as caring for them. I love outdoors activities, crafts, cooking, meal prepping and more. Very clean and a strong driver! Let's create a harmonious and joyful environment for your little ones.

I have 3 years previous babysitting experience (references available), currently babysitting with another family,  but looking for a second job.  I also have WWC & Police Clearance. Despite being a male (!) I have great rapport with kids. I'm easy going, though at the same time, I'm very aware of manners, positive reinforcement and being a role model plus not treating them as kids (if that makes sense).  My responsible, nurturing and energetic personality has allowed me to build very strong and continuous relationships with past children that I have babysat. Never smoked/dont drink, interests are sport, taught Karate for 12 years, play tennis, pretty good cook & learning Japanese. I have very flexible roster x 7 days & available on short notice when needed.
