Babysitters in Preston, VIC

Hello! My name is Abbie, I am a qualified Early Childhood educator and Teachers Aide with over 5+ years of experience. I have such a passion for working with children and love to learn and grow with them. I always strive to foster a fun, loving, and safe environment. Over the last year and a half I have been nannying whilst studying for a Bachelor of Psychology and Criminology. I have had the pleasure of working with 3 beautiful families. The children’s ages ranged from 6mnths to 4 years old. Throughout the last 5+ years I have thus gained experience in settling, making bottles, transitioning to solids, changing nappies, helping children reach their milestones and creating age appropriate activities that are fun, safe and loving whilst working with families to ensure their children are under the best care; tailored to their needs. I love taking the children out for adventures to the Zoo, Aquarium and Museum! But we also love creating at home, visiting local parks and exploring our own back yards! I am also happy to help around the house and ensure that the household runs smoothly. I am also happy to provide excellent references.

I am warm, caring and compassionate and adore working with children. I have previous experience nannying, and I worked for the same family for several years and have an ongoing relationship with this family. I am able to offer care for teenagers, primary aged children, young children and toddlers. I am available for weekend work during the day and/or evenings, giving you the opportunity for date night or to be an extra pair of hands in a busy household. I am available for one off bookings or on an ongoing basis. I have my own car and am available to transport your children if needed. I am happy to do light housework and cooking and will do whatever I can to help your household run smoothly and keep your children occupied and happy. I have Level 2 First Aid, CPR, anaphylaxis and asthma training. I am more than willing to do homework, reading or other educational activities with your child if you wish, otherwise I always love play time, activities and adventures.
