Babysitters in Parkville, VIC

Hi! My name is Olivia, thank you for taking the time to read my profile. A bit about me: I’m a responsible, warm, and energetic babysitter with a genuine love for working with children. I’m currently a final-year medical student, studying at the University of Melbourne but doing placement at hospitals around Melbourne. I’ve been working with kids in various roles since I was 15 – including babysitting, sports coaching, and maths and science tutoring. With years of experience caring for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, I always aim to create a fun, safe, and nurturing environment. Whether it’s helping with homework, organising creative play, or winding down for bedtime, I tailor my care to suit each child’s needs and routines. I’m also happy to help with school drop-offs/pickups, light household tasks, and meal prep. I hold current first aid and CPR qualifications, a Working With Children Check (WWCC), and a full driver’s licence. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring babysitter who brings a mix of fun, responsibility, and experience, I’d love to hear from you!

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

Hello Families, My name is Arushi, and caring for children has always come naturally to me. Growing up surrounded by younger siblings and cousins, I quickly became the go-to person for everything from scraped knees to silly games and bedtime stories. That early experience sparked a deep love for working with children—a passion that has only grown stronger over the years. My journey in childcare began in education, where I spent three years working with children in a community-driven school setting. Since then, I’ve taken on diverse roles as a nanny, au pair, and private tutor, supporting families with everything from newborn care to school-age routines. I bring a gentle, grounded, and reliable presence into the home, with a strong focus on building trust and consistency. As someone who speaks several languages, I love incorporating language learning into daily routines—whether it’s through songs, storytelling, or casual conversation. I believe it’s not only fun but also opens little minds to the wider world. What sets me apart is my calm nature, deep sense of responsibility, and genuine joy in being part of a child’s growth journey. I take great pride in creating environments where children feel safe, seen, and supported to explore the world in their own unique way. If you’re looking for a nanny who is caring, dependable, and truly invested in your child’s development, I would be honoured to be part of your family’s story. I’d love to connect and learn more about how I can support your household and help your little ones thrive. Warm regards, Arushi.
