Babysitters in Prahran, VIC

Dear parents: I'm a Peruvian female who speaks fluent English and Spanish. I have always loved children and helped raise my nephew from when he was a baby. I have looked after toddlers and young children both in Australia (since 2013) and Peru in previous jobs. I am looking for part time, full time or occasional work. I am flexible about days. I am very friendly and can communicate well with children. I have also worked in a primary school as a Teacher's Aide. This included assisting children with learning difficulties. I also volunteer with Seeing Eye dogs Australia raising dogs for people with low vision or blind. I can even teach your children some Spanish if you like. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi! I’m Alchemy — I’m 31, creative, reliable, and have been babysitting on and off for the past 8 years. Most of my experience has been with children aged 7 and up, often in busy households with multiple kids. I’m confident with school drop-offs, morning routines, after-school care, and helping out wherever needed throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and creating a calm, fun, and supportive environment for them to grow and feel safe in. While I’ve mostly worked with older children, I’m eager to build more experience with younger age groups and always open to learning and adapting to suit each family’s needs. When I’m not babysitting, I work as a freelance artist and designer — creativity is a big part of my world, and I love bringing that into how I spend time with kids, whether it’s drawing, crafting, or encouraging their imaginations to run wild. I'm available for full days and happy to support your family in whatever way works best — whether that’s keeping things running smoothly at home, helping with meals and tidying, or being a consistent and caring presence during the day. Every family is different, and I love getting to know each child’s unique personality, needs, and rhythm. I value open communication, warmth, and flexibility — and always aim to build genuine connections with both kids and parents. Feel free to get in touch — I’d love to hear more about your family and how I might be able to support you.
