Hi there. My name is Georgie and I'm a 55 year old mum myself with two beautiful older children aged 21 and 23 years, both of whom no longer need a lot of my care. I recently spent 3 months in Europe looking after my gorgeous one year old nephew, Archer for my brother and sister in-law. The experience was really enjoyable and it got me thinking that I would love to help another family with some babysitting. I have a broad range of experience with kids, including having been a swimming instructor, as well as having coached little athletics for just over 6 years. I love to cook, so helping in the kitchen will be no problem. Lastly, I hate mess, so I'd be very happy to help with any cleaning that needs doing.

Hi my name is Alice, and I am a current uni student at ACU studying nursing and residing at Newman College. I grew up on a farm in south-west Victoria and have lived there my whole life with my family of 6. I am the eldest of four kids, which meant i have had to do a lot of child minding growing up when our parents were away. I boarded at Ballarat Grammar for the most of my schooling, and participated in community service through volunteering to assist the prep-2 kids with after school sports ranging from football, netball, futsal, swimming and running. I am looking for a babysitting job and have had previous experience with both non-family and family members ranging in ages from 1-14 (all of which were casual). I am looking for any casual or full time work for children over 12 months old. I am an enthusiastic and trustworthy person and feel I would be greatly suited to any family. I also have my first aid certificate, CPR certificate, WWCC, VIC driver’s license (Ps), and am triple vaccinated against COVID. I look forward to meeting you and your family 😊

I have first aid training and can provide a working with children's check and a police check evidence on request. I have lived in Melbourne for several years and am thus very familiar with the area. I currently hold my red P-plate, but not a full licence, unfortunately. I also love animals, so I am more than comfortable with households that have a resident pet.
