Babysitters in Kooyong, VIC

Hi my name is Maria and I'm currently looking for some casual babysitting jobs on the side. I’m a reliable and caring person looking to get started in babysitting. While I don’t have formal experience yet, I’m patient, responsible and I’m happy to help with routines, playtime, or homework. I will make it my utmost responsibility to make sure children are safe and comfortable. I’m a quick learner and easy to communicate with, and I’m keen to build trust with families while gaining experience. I am available on weekends and during the evenings on weekdays.

Hi, my name is Maya. I grew up in Bangkok, Thailand and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and I am Malaysian-Sri Lankan. I have two older brothers, so I grew up in a close family environment. I am currently studying a Diploma in Early Childhood Education in Melbourne. And I currently work part-time at OHSC Camp Australia Before and after school Program. I have around 3 years of experience working with children through volunteering at my church Sunday school program, where I helped care for children aged 1–12 years every Sunday. In this role I supervised children, helped organise snack times, learning activities, games and crafts, and supported the children during lessons and play. I also helped teach Bible stories and activities that focused on values such as kindness, respect, empathy and helping others, and helped guide the children as they participated in these activities. Through my studies I am learning about child development, play-based learning, and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF). These frameworks support children’s social, emotional, cognitive and physical development, helping them learn through play while building confidence and independence in a safe and supportive environment. I have a Working With Children Check and HLTAID012 – Provide First Aid in an Education and Care Setting certification. I am patient, responsible, reliable and attentive, and I enjoy helping with activities, homework, routines and creative play. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident with who is caring for their children, and I always aim to create a safe, caring and supportive environment. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and see if I’m the right fit for your children!

Hi There! I am Issy a recent high-school graduate eager to start a babysittint role. Over the years I have developed a genuine passion for taking care of kids or anyone in general. As to why I plan on studying Nursing next year. Growing up in a large family has given me plenty of hands-on experience looking after my cousins, from keeping them entertained to helping with daily routines. I've learned how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each child's individual needs. Although, they are my family members I have also been exposed throughout high school mentoring younger kids through my Sport and Recreation studies. Alongside, growing up next to a park where I would take care of my fellow neighbors and play with them. I find that I bring my own challenges into different situations, but this has actually helped me grow into a more adaptable and understanding person. Depending on each child’s personality and needs, I’m able to adjust my approach and support them in a way that works best for them. Thank you, for taking the moment to read my application.

Warm, reliable, and attentive caregiver with strong emotional intelligence and a calm, nurturing approach. Experienced in building trust with children, supporting routines, and creating a safe, engaging environment. Patient, organised, and dependable, with a natural ability to respond to children’s needs with care and consistency.

Hi lovely 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 14 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 business too so I'm comfortable with all types of pets. I love all animals. 🤗 *Important to know...... *I'm up to date (2025) with my Whooping Cough vaccination (pertussis)* I have had my car licence for decades & 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 🌸
