Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi! I'm Chloe, I'm a caring, creative, and reliable nanny with a passion for supporting families. I have years of experience babysitting for family and friends, and I'm now looking to work more regularly with a family during the week to balance out my work as an acupuncturist. I bring a calm energy to my care, and my love for arts, music, and dance. Whether it's helping with routines, or just being a steady, positive presence, I’d love to make life easier for both kids and parents. It would be great to connect and see if we’re a good fit.

Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting,Au Pair

With years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages, I bring a calm, confident, and nurturing presence to every home I work in. I’ve previously nannied for twin toddlers and a 6 & 7 year old, managing the day-to-day with patience, creativity, and structure β€” and I’ve had the joy of basically being a second mother to my own eight nieces and nephews, many of whom I’ve helped care for from the newborn stage. Caring for children comes naturally to me. I'm deeply comfortable around kids, and I take great pride in creating a safe, loving environment that encourages their emotional, cognitive, and creative growth. Whether it’s playtime, mealtime, or nap time, I approach every moment with intention β€” offering gentle guidance, dependable support, and plenty of heart. My passion lies in supporting little ones as they learn and explore the world, and in being a trusted presence for the families I work with. I believe that nurturing care in the early years can shape a child's confidence and well-being for life, and I’m committed to bringing that energy into every day.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Having raised 3 boys as a single mum who are now 3 wonderful young men, all now grown up and independent, and having also been house-proud, maintaining a lovely clean home and sanctuary, I've thought to offer my services as a nanny or household help. Non-smoker, healthy and fit, appreciative of a nature and environment, loving to do everything without harming the environment, try to avoid using screens wherever possible. I have a mobile phone with no active account on it, which can still be used to call emergency. That's important! Looking forward to hearing from a family that's local and we can chat further!
