Babysitters in La Trobe University, VIC

I am a compassionate and responsible caregiver with personal experience caring for my nephew from birth to age three, supporting my sister through every stage of his early development. From feeding, bottle sterilisation, and nap routines to playful engagement and comfort, I have hands-on knowledge of infant and toddler care. I understand how difficult it can be for parents to leave their baby with someone new, which is why I treat every child as my own—precious and God-sent. Families can trust my patience, reliability, and nurturing nature. I am also willing to obtain a Working with Children Check (WWCC).

Hello there! I'm currently seeking a part-time or casual nanny position after the family I’ve been working with moved out of town. I have over a decade of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, and I’ve formed long-term, trusting relationships with the families I’ve worked with. I frequently step in as auntie for close friends and family, and have a step-daughter of my own too. I also work as a kids’ party, workshop and play space facilitator, fuelling my passion for supporting self-expression, learning, empowerment and play. In other words, I love kid's and am very experienced in caring for all ages. Prior studies in yoga and eastern philosophies, and my current focus on counselling and psychology, along with personal experience navigating my own mental health and neurodiversity, have contributed greatly to my ability to attune to and communicate well with children. I have a high capacity for providing emotional support, practicing non-violent communication and staying calm and regulated in stressful situations. My priority is to foster a mutually safe, trusting relationship with children and their families, and to nurture emotional regulation and connection, ensuring children feel seen, heard, and respected, aligning with familial values and being a positive role-model. I bring a playful and creative spirit with a love for exploration, adventures as well as cozy and fun times at home. I enjoy cooking, baking, making music, arts and crafts, and exploring nature, museums, playgrounds, libraries, galleries parks and whatever else the day takes us. I'm confident with planning activities, inspiring play and coming up with ideas that encourage joy and learning. I'm also a big fan of child-lead play and enjoy discovering and nurturing whatever sparks the child's interest and enthusiasm, and I find it very rewarding being a part of nurturing a child's interests and talent. I’m very happy to assist with daily tasks like morning and bedtime routines, school drop-offs, errands, meal prep, homework, laundry and general household upkeep. Grossed out by the head lice your kid kindly bought home from daycare? I've got you covered! I'm very aware of the stress and chaos that can come with juggling work, home and personal life while raising little ones , and take great joy in being able to support families to survive and to help children thrive. Being invited into a child's life to nurture their wellbeing and help them to grow, learn, and enjoy their world is a privilege and a joy, and I look forward to continuing to be a positive, supportive and inspiring presence for the next little human and their family. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile and feel free to get in touch with any questions or to arrange a conversation if we sound like a good fit :)

I approach nannying with kindness and patience, looking to contribute to confident, kind and happy kids. I'll learn all about your family and how you want to raise it, and make sure your kids and babies have a seamless transition from you to me and back again. I work hard to ensure that your needs are anticipated, and the hope I have in working with you is that I can provide you time and space - for you, as a couple, or to spend with your family while I take care of the everyday tasks (or the opposite when you need to tap out!) I take great pleasure in making parents and carers' lives easier and if my presence in your home feels like a sigh of relief, job done!

Currently, I am dedicatedly serving as a permanent team member at A2Z kindergarten & childcare, where I have been nurturing and caring for the big kids in the kinder room. Over my 3.5 years of working with children, I have been fortunate enough to gain extensive experience across various age groups and rooms within the center. My journey in childcare has been nothing short of incredible. Each day brings new joys, challenges, and opportunities to make a positive impact on the lives of these precious young ones. From the first moment I stepped into the childcare centre , I knew that this was where my passion truly lies. Within my role at A2Z, I have had the privilege of working closely with children of all ages, from infants to toddlers and beyond. This diverse experience has not only equipped me with a deep understanding of each developmental stage but has also allowed me to tailor my approach to effectively meet the unique needs of each child. Creating meaningful connections with children and their families is paramount to me. I believe that fostering a warm, welcoming, and engaging environment is foundational to a child's well-being, growth, and overall development. By building trust, encouraging curiosity, and promoting a love for learning, I strive to create a space where children can thrive and reach their full potential. My time in childcare has taught me invaluable lessons about patience, empathy, and the importance of open communication. I have honed my skills in creating age-appropriate activities, assisting with meal times, maintaining a safe and clean environment, and providing emotional support to both children and their families. With a genuine love for children and an unwavering dedication to their welfare, I am confident in my ability to make a meaningful contribution to any setting with caring for children.
