Babysitters in Kooyong, VIC

Currently nanny for one family and work seasonally till the start of April. I have 10+ years experience nannying children from infant to school age. The family I am with currently I have been with since their 5 and 4 year old were a few days old. I adore being outdoors, learning by doing and getting up and moving. I am available from April - September Tuesdays and Thursdays as my work becomes less intense and would love to help a family who need it!

As a compassionate and dedicated babysitter, I bring an abundance of warmth and empathy to every interaction with the small humans I hang out with. My bubbly personality ensures that I create a lively and engaging environment where kids feel comfortable expressing themselves. I approach each child with an open mind, embracing their unique personalities and interests. Whether it's playing games, reading stories, or simply listening attentively, I prioritize building strong connections based on trust and understanding. With a keen sense of responsibility and a genuine love for children, I strive to provide a safe and supportive space where young minds can flourish and thrive. (Albeit cheesy :)

Hi families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ 🌺 I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful independent 29 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. 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 there! My name is Brydie-Leigh, I am 19 years old, I was born and raised on the Gold Coast and was studying a Bachelor of Veterinary Science at The University of Queensland until I recently moved to Melbourne to embark on an exciting new journey in my life - I am now studying a Bachelor of Biomedicine at the University of Melbourne. I absolutely adore everything about babysitting, from the laughter and joy of playtime to the moments of comfort and care when they need a reassuring hug. I understand how important it is to create a warm, friendly environment for kids so my goal is always to make sure your children feel comfortable and happy, so they look forward to spending time with their babysitter, rather than dreading their parents departure. Building a strong, trusting relationship with each child is really important to me, and I'm extremely focused on fostering a safe, fun, and supportive space where your kids can feel right at home.

I've just recently moved from Sydney to Melbourne. I was working as a swim coach for kids for 6 years ages ranged from 3months to 13years old so very comfortable around any age of kids. I've also coached kids soccer and basketball as well as taught kids piano. I was doing plenty of babysitting, nannying and tutoring for kids in Sydney and can provide references. I love working with and being around kids, just got back from 4 months travelling as well so my WWCC expired and I will be renewing that ASAP. I have a motorbike so can transport myself and I have access to a car if and when needed as well.

I am a professional, trust-worthy person who has a passion for supporting children and encouraging a love of learning through play and fun! I have 11+ years of experience in Early Childhood and love to provide opportunities to support families to have more freedom, flexibility and balance.

Hi families! My name is Charlotte, and I’m a 22-year-old final year student at RMIT University, studying Fashion Marketing.

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.
