I love working with kids and am working toward a career in early childhood education, especially in a kindergarten setting. I enjoy helping children learn, play, and grow in a safe and supportive environment. I often babysit my younger cousins, which has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to keep kids engaged and happy. I'm caring, reliable, and always willing to learn new skills. I hope to gain more experience so I can become a positive role model for young children and support their development during their most important early years.

Growing up in a large family with many younger cousins, I’ve had plenty of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. From playtime to bedtime routines, I’m confident in creating a safe, engaging, and fun environment for kids. Currently in my final year of Year 12, I bring a responsible, energetic, and caring approach to babysitting. I’m passionate about sports and love spending time outdoors, so I’m always happy to keep kids active and entertained. I’m available for after-school care, weekends, and evenings, and would love the opportunity to support your family.

Hi I’m Meya, I’m a 27 year old working holiday visa holder from Finland. I recently moved here to Melbourne with my boyfriend. I have experience in Childcare back in Finland and wish to continue working alongside children as I find it to be some of the most rewarding work. During my time in childcare I was responsible for supervising groups of up to 10 children across indoor and outdoor environments. I’m used to following safeguard protocols to ensure the children’s safety and well-being at all times.

My name is Juliana Palacio, and I’m 24 years old. I’m currently pursuing a degree in Graphic Design online at a university in my home country. I’m passionate about traveling, which brought me to Australia to experience something new and explore nearby countries. ✨ I’m also a professional dancer, and in my free time, I enjoy reading. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish. For over 5 years, I’ve been dedicated to working with children, a role that has been both fulfilling and inspiring. Currently, I work with a family as an au pair from Monday to Thursday, where I organize the children for school, prepare breakfast, and occasionally take them to school. The children I care for are two and six years old, and this experience has further enriched my ability to connect with kids of different ages. One of my biggest dreams is to study Psychology once I complete my Graphic Design degree, as I’m deeply interested in understanding and helping others. I’m excited to work with you and your child, creating a safe, fun, and enriching experience for them!
