Hi Parents & families, I was previously working in early childcare with over 7 years of experience. I am confident working with children of all ages, from 4 months+ and enjoy going on outings & creating art and sensory experiences. Let me know if you have any questions! Jaimi :)

Hello there! I am a warm and loving nanny located in the Northern Suburbs. I have a deep passion for working with children and fostering a safe, fun and supportive environment for them to grow and thrive in. I have been bahysitting and nannying for 5+ years, with experience caring from newborns, up to 10 year old children. I am caring and reliable, and would love to do whatever I can to support your family. I am looking for new families to nanny for and to build an ongoing relationship with.

Hi, I’m Issy - I am a 25-year-old local artist and nanny with 4+ years of experience. I believe in a team mentality and I am more than happy to help in all capacities whether that is making dinner, walking the dog, doing the washing or staying overnight with the children. I understand that building caring and meaningful relationships, with both the children and the parents, helps to support the children in all stages of childhood. If I'm not focussing on my art, I'm watching a great film with my partner and our two cats or cooking up the best vegetables you've ever eaten (I will bring your leftovers). I am COVID vaccinated. Only looking for an LGTBQ+ friendly role. :)

Hi families! I'm a social worker who is friendly, warm, caring and reliable. As a social worker I am passionate about delivering a high standard of child centred care, I am attuned, present, empathetic and I love working with kids. I have experience babysitting and I also have lots of little cousins who I treasure and who have taught me many lessons. Happy to provide parent references. I have experience working as a mental health support worker. Up until recently I was employed as a family violence case manager, supporting women and children to escape and recover from family violence. As you can imagine it was a pretty stressful role so I am taking a short break from the field and seeking some casual work in the interim. I love to cook and I am an avid cleaner so if you need a hand getting jobs done around the house I am your girl. As a child I attended a Rudolf Steiner School in the country. As a result I love all things outdoors and all things creative and would be happy to embark on adventures to the park with your little ones or to have arts and crafts days. I have a fully insured car and drivers licence and as such I am happy to do school pick ups and drop offs. I have my working with childrens check, first aid certificate, NDIS worker screening check and am fully vaccinated against covid 19.

Hello! I have always been drawn to the joy and energy that is found in working with children. I have 8+ years of experience babysitting and nannying for children of all ages and feel very confident in my abilities. Following the successful completion of my Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care, I accepted a job in a childcare centre. During the past three years, I have had the privilege of gaining invaluable hands-on experience in the field of childcare. This experience has not only deepened my understanding of child development but has also honed my ability to create an enriching and nurturing environment for children. I am committed to empowering children and creating a safe and engaging space for them to explore, learn and grow. I also have found that my background in professional dance has allowed me to connect with children on a unique level through creativity and movement. Looking forward to hearing from you :)

Hi there! I am currently 22 years old, living independently in thornbury and have just graduated from RMIT (in 2023) studying a bachelor of criminology and psychology. I am currently looking for casual babysitting opportunities before I start looking for roles in my future career (in 2025/2026). I have previously looked after a family with 3 kids (aged 8-13) in 2022, and currently nannying for a family with 2 kids aged 10 & 11. I have also had many casual babysitting opportunities looking after toddlers and tweens. I have limited experience working with children under the age of 1. I can provide references for these experiences :) I am after work that is rewarding, and allows me to form greater connections to those that I am helping. My aspiration is to work in a counselling or case management setting that works with families and youth/children in the system. I have previously worked in a psychologist’s office where I assisted children with additional needs in their activities, and sat into occupational therapy sessions.

Hi there! I'm Electra, and I recently graduated from Oxford University with a Bachelor's in Economics and Management. I've been casually babysitting and nannying since I was 16, and I absolutely love working with children. My approach to childcare is comprehensive, drawing on my extensive experience in nannying, tutoring, and first aid. Over the past five years, I’ve tutored various subjects at both the primary and secondary school levels. I’m passionate about helping kids with their daily homework and any challenging concepts they might be struggling with at school, as I believe it's crucial for them to feel confident in their abilities. Recognising that a child's home is a significant part of their world, I’m dedicated to assisting with household management, including cleaning, decluttering, laundry, and other duties, to ensure their environment is as comfortable as possible. Food plays a vital role in both happiness and health. I enjoy cooking and strive to make mealtimes special by preparing nutritious meals and engaging in meaningful conversations over dinner. Safety is my top priority. During my five-year tenure as an Assistant Age Manager at my local surf lifesaving club, I taught ocean safety skills to children of all ages and earned several first aid qualifications. I was honored to be named Assistant Age Manager of the Year in 2019. I also enjoy collaborating with parents to establish consistent rules and boundaries within the family unit, creating an environment of trust, love, support, and stability for your children. Together, we can ensure a nurturing and secure atmosphere for your family.

Hello parents! I'm Kelly, a 38-year-old who's got a blend of wisdom and childlike wonder, available for casual babysitting. I am a regular ad hoc babysitter for multiple families across Fitzroy, Thornbury, Preston, and Brunswick East, with kids aged 1 to 11 years old. I am also a regular babysitter for my 3yo niece, who never fails to fill my heart with happiness as she explores the world. Babysitting is a joy, filled with crafts, playgrounds, Disney movies, baking sessions, bike rides, science experiments, and story time. I enjoy cooking and often prepare nourishing meals for the kids. Although my main focus is on giving the kids my full care and attention, I might have time to whip up a meal for parents as well. Warmth, authenticity, and nurturing are my go-tos. I'm all about fostering creativity and curiosity, making every moment a blend of fun and learning. Kids have this incredible knack for reminding us of life's simple joys, and I find that truly inspiring. While I work full-time from 9 am to 5 pm, I operate from home on Fridays, so offer flexible support on that day, and most evenings and weekends are also open. I am excited about the opportunity to connect with you and your children, creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for their growth and happiness. Looking forward to speaking with you soon! 😊

I am a nursing student who is affectionate, caring and empathetic. As I was the eldest daughter of my joint family, taking care of others comes naturally to come. I grew up taking care of younger siblings, so working around children makes me feel like home. Working as a nanny made me organised, a great planner and communicator.When I was in school, loved to participate in art and recreation activities and have studied children's health as one my electives in nursing. My mother was a teacher, teaching and learning was something I got from her and really enthusiastic about it as well.
