Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi! I’m Elle. I’m 31, originally from Sydney but have been living in Melbourne for around 8 years now. I hold a current First Aid Certificate, a Working With Children Check (WWWC), and I have my own car. I've recently been working as an Educator for a First Aid Training company so I'm super mindful of potential dangers and confident in dealing with asthma, anaphylaxis, choking, burns, cuts, and other emergencies so your kids will always be in good hands. I’ve always loved children and have had plenty of babysitting experience with my young cousins, nieces and nephews over the years, as well as ongoing nannying experience. I've also had the pleasure of working as an Au Pair for a lovely family in London, where I cared for two little ones (ages 1 and 2 and a half). I'm looking for regular work throughout the week and am happy to do additional babysitting if/when required. Please feel free to reach out - I’d love to chat more and see if I’m the right fit for your family!

I possess a strong ability to engage young people of all ages, whether it be through inventing new games, arts and crafts, or educational play. I am well accustomed to helping around the house, from light to heavy house-work. I have a plethora of work experience with children from a range of backgrounds, including youth work, nannying, mentoring, tutoring, and foster-care, as well as sound knowledge of child psychological processes and development.

Hello! I'm currently a student however I really would like to help my dad out with the funding for a documentary. I'm an excellent student and loving bonding with children. I have always babysat my younger cousins from birth (now 6 years) and I honestly would like to just have a fun time!! Since I will only be available later in the evening I would love to have that sleepover/playdate kind of vibe and I can even bring snacks if you like (of course let me know of any allergies and or preferences). I'm pretty crafty as well as athletic so I can definitely change to suit you and your child's needs. Eg: bringing board games, soccer balls, paint and brushes, et cetera I have two blue budgies (Quack and Berry) and they're super cute so you should hire me to see how cute they are! :) OH also I can most likely help with any homework/academic-related questions they may have!

My daughter will always cherish the special relationship Lottie has built with her. Lottie is the best babysitter we ever had! I have no hesitation in recommending her in the highest regard.

I am Ayelén Rodríguez, I am 37 years old and I have more than ten years of experience in art education with children. Currently in Melbourne I am working in the care of a two year old child, as a support worker with an elderly person and giving art workshops for a company called Art-Ish. Throughout my career I was dedicated to leading educational teams in different museums, creating educational content for children and diverse audiences, with an inclusive and accessible perspective.

I do not have a certificate in childcare yet, but I am more than willing to obtain one if it is important to any family. Personally, because of my artistic background, I have many playful and pedagogical strategies to work with children and I love to go outdoors, to parks and museums and even to play sports.
