Babysitters in Kooyong, VIC

Hey there! My name is Mel. I'm an educator in the performing arts, with a passion for music, theatre, and learning and have +10 years of experience in childcare, nannying and babysitting. I'm a performer and teacher by trade, with qualifications from NIDA (The National Institute of Dramatic Art) and the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music and I hold a Masters degree in Performance Teaching from The University Of Melbourne. I have very real connections with families I've met through this website, and have been taking jobs from Find A Babysitter for years, so I have lots of positive reviews to speak to the natural affinity I have with kids! I nannied consistently for a beautiful family with two toddlers over the past last two years and have also worked as an Educator/Carer at the popular Kool Kidzz holiday program, an Educator and Carer at Penleigh & Essendon Grammar School in the music and drama programs and as an Arts & Crafts teacher in shopping centre workshops. I'm a genuinely enthusiastic, warm, bubbly and playful person who adores playing with children (and is happy to, for hours on end!) but can be equally firm and instil boundaries when required. I'm totally unfazed by a noisy, busy household and pets are never a problem (in fact, always a plus). I would love to hear from you if you think I might be a lovely fit for your family's needs! I am always looking for casual babysitting work, so feel free to reach out! Best, Mel

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.

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.

A background in education as well as currently studying my Bachelor of Education. I have been a teacher's aide, babysitter, and nanny on and off for the past 7 years. I am reliable, responsible, caring, and fun. I love having the opportunity to watch kids grow and evolve and assist them in day-to-day activities that help them to be the best versions of themselves.
