Babysitters in Parkville, VIC

Hey, I'm Zoé, 19 years old and from Germany :) I'm looking for a short term or casual position. I have been an aupair in Adelaide for 2 months, but unfortunately it didn't work with the family :( so I came here, living with relatives and jobbing before I'll travel. Currently I'm babysitting one day the week, but I also gained some experience so far, for example through my internship at an elementary school, as a class representative and as a mentor in school. Apart from that I have been babysitting for quite some time. The children were in age from few months to 15 years. I study with them and do crafts together. I take them off to school and their activities and pick them up. We also enjoy the outdoors, play together and of course I read to them and put them to bed. Additionally I'm also happy to sit pets :) Would be happy to hear from you :))

I love cooking and doing motor activities (obstacle course is my specialty- it's my job!) and creative activities with kids! Happy to help with homework too. I don’t mind doing some light house work when kids are asleep. I have a car and a licence and I’m comfortable driving with kids in the car. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and ready to make your little ones feel comfortable and happy while you're away! I look forward to meeting you! I have WWCC, NDIS, police check, first aid and CPR and I am a super fan of gentle education and of Montessori activities, I’m very calm and patient, but also very fun!

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! I currently look after a few families however my calendar has opened for a new family in 2025. I commit to long hour and long term commitment for the year with all of my families. It's important. Currently I cover ages 8 months, 12 months, 2.5 years, 4.5 years and 9 & 11 years olds. I understand the variety of changing developments in children and adapt to these needs. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my entire life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old and up until now as a professional nanny for parents who are doctors, solicitors, engineers, school teachers, marketing specialist and even a CEO. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with human development, of which I have covered extensively. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress and anxiety is about the energy from the nanny/babysitter. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age carer can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I follow routines and set boundaries, (initiated from the parents) for all children because it creates security and trust with them. I participate in both home and outdoor activities and excursions. I can drive my own car (petrol charges incur) or use any parents' cars. I cover household cleaning (light house work: all things kids mess, upkeep where possible in the laundry area, keep kitchen clean) to take the burden away from parents so they can come home to a cleaner environment than perhaps they left it. This is always discussed in detail for any family because I am not a 'house cleaner' I am a Nanny. I am extremely reliable and punctual to enable all parents to relax knowing I will always be there for them. I look forward to hearing from you. Nanny Clare

Hi there! I'm Gabby, an energetic, positive, caring and responsible person, looking for babysitting work to complement my part-time psychology degree that I’m excited to move to Melbourne from Sydney for! I have babysat and nannied for many amazing families over the last 12 years, and currently nanny for an almost 2 year old in Paddington, who I adore and casually for around 6 families in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney! I also look after a 1 and 4 year old 1 day a week. I have also just completed a course to become an ADHD coach, so for the next year will be nannying while I set up my business, alongside study - as you can tell I love to be busy and learn! I absolutely love caring for children as I love getting to know the kids I babysit, from the first day where they can often be quite shy, to the point of familiarity, which is really rewarding. I love seeing their unique personalities grow every time I see them, and love how carefree and creative children can be. I also really enjoy baby-sitting because it's always alot of fun, and I enjoy finding fun activities to do, whether it's going to the park, making music, making a cubby house or making artworks. I have taught music to 0-5 year olds at Reddam in St. Leonard’s and Lindfield, as well as teaching K-1 before school music classes in Bondi. I do a lot of casual babysitting work in Newtown for a beautiful 4 year old boy (who I have been lucky enough to watch grow from 8 months old!) and his 1 year old sister, as well as nannying for my beautiful 2 and 4 year old nephews. I also do casual evenings for a beautiful family with a 1 year old in Edgecliff, and two children who are 7 and 9 in Edgecliff. I am a creative & energetic person, and I absolutelylutely love to babysit. It brings me so much joy and I love taking care of and nurturing the gorgeous personalities who I get to meet! I would love to hear from you, if I sound like the right fit for your family, and a full CV and references is available :) I have a WWCC & a Police Check
