Looking for: Casual Babysitting

Hi! I'm Anouk, an international student from Spain studying in Melbourne. I'm the eldest in my family, so taking care of children has always been something I have been involved with. I helped out around my school back home in Málaga with younger classes (5-6 and 11-12 year olds) doing different activities with them, so I'm comfortable with different activities and personalities. I have also done more formal babysitting and would love to start up again. I can do so in English or Spanish, and I'm happy to help out with schoolwork!

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

I am a responsible and caring person that enjoys spending time with children. Although I don't have formal paid childcare experience, I have hands-on experience caring for kids. During my exchange year abroad, I lived with a host family who had young children and I regularly helped look after them. Also, a few years ago, I volunteered at a kindergarten, where I helped supervise activities. These experiences have helped me learn to become more responsible and attentive in caring for them.

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

I am a responsible young lady of 20 years. I have my probationary licence (green p plates) and vehicle, so I will always be able to be punctual, as well as independently manage pickups and drop offs. I understand that children have routines and I am willing to ensure their happiness, whether this is playing games, reading, singing, dancing, and especially arts and crafts! I attended Lauriston Girls’ School and boarded at Geelong Grammar during my schooling years. I began my tertiary education at Monash university, and now am a student at Melbounre university, and a boarder at Trinity College :)

Hi! I’m currently living at college while studying at melbourne and love being part of such a vibrant community. In my free time, you’ll often find me rowing, spending time with my family, or playing my favourite board game, Cluedo. I grew up with two older brothers, so I’m very used to a lively household! Having had many wonderful babysitters myself who made a lasting impact on my childhood, I’m incredibly grateful for the care and kindness they showed me. That experience has inspired me to provide the same positive, fun, and supportive environment for the children I look after.

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

Hi families! My name is Araminta (or Minti for short), and I’m super excited about the opportunity to work with a family. I grew up by the beach in Perth and moved to Melbourne at the start of 2025 to study a Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne, majoring in Physiology. I come from a big, busy family. I have a younger brother and sister whom I’m very close with, plus 24 cousins, so I’ve been around kids my whole life. I’ve been babysitting for a range of families for over five years and have experience with children of different ages and needs. Recently, I’ve been caring for a two-year-old girl who is deaf, supporting her with toilet training, nap routines, and engaging activities like park visits and painting. In Year 12, I also worked with a family with three very energetic children, helping with school drop-offs, meal preparation, and general household tasks. I love keeping kids engaged and active, whether that’s going for walks, swimming, visiting the library, or getting creative. I can’t wait to meet your children and create a fun, safe, and caring environment for them!

To whom it may concern, My name is Skye Fitzgerald, I am interested in the position. I graduated Year 12 at Ballarat Grammar at the end of 2024. I am very keen to work whilst studying a Bachelor of Nursing at ACU. I am going into my second year of Nursing in 2026. I have experience working in group settings which has allowed me to develop my skills of communication along with the ability to deal with a variety of situations. I have experience working with livestock which has required me to approach situations with forward thinking to achieve the best result. Alongside this I worked in a hospitality role in a fast-food takeaway shop, for a few months over uni break. This allowed me to develop my customer service skills. I have recently completed my first placement for nursing in an aged care home. I have experience babysitting my two nieces aged 3 years old and 8 months old. I am very comfortable in my ability to look after children, I also have many cousins and have looked after them a lot growing up. Thanks, Skye Fitzgerald

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello, I'm Lotta! I'm a Australian-Finnish nanny and textile artist based in North Carlton, where I've lived for 14 years. I'm responsible, playful, creative, and nurturing with a confident and gentle disposition. My experience with children ranges from birth to 11 years old, including caring for 2 under 4 for four years in total now. I value needing to be fully present and feel fortunate to share in their excitement as they explore and discover little and big things about themselves and the world around them from day-to-day. I love supporting parents (new and seasoned) by providing a safe and stimulating environment for their children to grow and flourish. I prioritise learning each individual families needs and offering tailored support, especially when it comes to sleep approach and learning styles. I value mutual respect and being lopped into developmental changes along the way. My expertise includes: • Sleeping and settling, overnight feeds, handling EBM/formula, introducing solids. • Bathing, nappies, eczema treatments, administering basic medications (coloxyl, vitamin D drops, panadol, etc...). • Sensory, nature, musical, sport, and art activities. • Supporting milestones (rolling, crawling, walking, introduction of solids, language development). • Excursions: Parks, gardens, story-time, farmers markets, NGV, Melbourne Museum, Ceres, State Library Kid's Room, 'Bop Along' Music Classes. • Happy to do childcare/kindergarten pick-ups. I'm also available to care for your children at my own child-safe, Montessori-inspired North Carlton terrace house and cottage garden (a popular spot for plant watering). I'm comfortable with all pets (no allergies) and I have two half Devon Rex cats called Atlas & Sol 🐾 I have a WWCC, Police Check, and have completed an in-person Pediatric First Aid & CPR course via Emergecare *completed 7th Dec 2025. My Pertussis/whooping cough vaccine is up to date ✔️⛑️ Happy to contribute to the running of your household by cleaning up after play activities, meals etc... and other light housework (laundry, dishes etc). I enjoy organising, and am very happy to help if there is an area or room that needs a fresh pair of eyes or special attention. As I don't have my full drivers licence, all excursions and pick-ups will be via walking or public transport, which I am well experienced navigating while with little ones, as my references can tell you. 📅 Feel free to reach out to me with any enquiries, including time/day requests not currently listed. Public holiday rates upon request. Weekend rates are $50 per hour day and evening. Looking forward to meeting you and your families. 🌞🏳️‍🌈

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi! I’m currently a second-year student on exchange from the UK in Melbourne, and I’m looking for a part-time/casual babysitting role alongside university. I would describe myself as responsible, patient, and positive, and I think my previous experiences working with children really reflect that. I have worked as a private tutor teaching French and history to children aged 7 to 12, which taught me how to be supportive while also keeping a good balance of structure and encouragement. I also spent over a year and a half volunteering at the Baytree Centre in London, a girls-only refugee and migrant support centre, where I helped run after-school activities including literacy classes, book clubs, and cooking sessions for girls aged 6 to 13. I truly gained so much learning from those children and became really comfortable working with different personalities and creating a fun and safe environment for them to grow! I am also the eldest in a pretty big family and constantly surrounded by younger children, so looking after them has always been a natural part of my life. I had to be patient and responsible, which taught me how to handle situations calmly and keep things light and positive. I am pretty flexible on my schedule, so I’ll be happy to adapt to your family's needs! :)
