Babysitters in Somerton, VIC

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 — 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 — 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.

I am a responsible and organised Nanny with a completed Bachelor in Primary Education at La Trobe University and have completed a full time program at 16th Street Actors Studio. I have been working as a Primary School Teacher since 2020, and have been working as a Nanny and babysitter since I was 17. Throughout my previous study, I have also completed a Teaching placement program in India, as well as studying Abroad in the New York through a semester exchange program. I have years of experience in full-time, part-time and casual nannying working for many different families with children all ages including newly born and am happy to help with house cleaning tasks and preparation of food as well. I can provide parent references upon request. I have my full drivers licence as well access to a car if needed. I also have a Working with Children's and Police Check and Certificate in First Aid. Prior to working as a Primary school teacher, I have had many other jobs including working as an After school Care supervisor at Merri Creek Primary School, an Assistant manager for Boost Juice, as well as an ongoing Singing and Drama Teacher at Stage School Australia. If you are looking for an experienced nanny, with a fun-loving, compassionate and organised nature to help, please do not hesitate to contact me. I can be contacted through this website. Thank you so much !

Hi there! I’m a bright and caring 22-year-old with over three years of experience as a support worker, primarily supporting children and teens under 18. I’m confident in keeping kids engaged and happy with everything from arts & crafts and baking to science experiments and active play. Currently, I work as an ECG technician and administrator at the Children’s Hospital, where I care for and support young patients and their families every day. I grew up in the Macedon Ranges and spent 15 years dancing, where I also taught ballet to children aged 2–10 as a student teacher. I’d love the opportunity to support a family and become a trusted, fun-loving part of your child’s world and hopefully make a new little best friend along the way!

Hi my name is Olivia :) I have been travelling Europe for the past 7 months and got back on the 12th of February and I am now seeking some more employment involving working with children. I have over 4 years of nanny experience. Doing gigs ranging from short to long term help and casual covers Previously to my travels I looked after a gorgeous boy for a year who turned 2 while I was looking after him. I really enjoyed this and had a lovely bond but unfortunately his family moved to Perth. The hours were 8-6pm and I am looking for something similar. Prior to that I nannied casually for a 2 and a half year old boy who I took to the pools often due to my experience with swim teaching (this job was for a few months). Another family of two girls; a 6 month year old and 4 year old who needed my help for 3 months while their old helper was away. A german family who I’ve a good relationship with and nannied for them on two different occasions (a few months stint each time) who stay in Melbourne for a bit to visit family. (They were 6 months and 2 years old the first time and 2 and a half and 4 the following) Before some travels I did in 2022, I looked after a young girl around one years old for 6 months which was also long houred days of 8-5pm. Those two gigs were under an angency called The Reinforcement nannying agency. Which no longer runs. I have been a children's swimming teacher for Elite Swimming where I dealt with a wide range of ages typically (2-13 years old) in group and private situations. Prior to starting nannying 4 years ago i did casual baby sitting for 6+ years for local families where I first gained experience with kids varying ages. I am the second oldest out of four girls and therefore I am very family orientated and have grown up in a household surrounded by other kids which has taught me a lot of valuable skills such as communication and patience. I am currently taking a break from uni, however i was studying a bachelor of science at Monash. I am a very caring, energetic, friendly person who is a reliable, confident, and flexible worker. I believe I have a nurturing nature and genuinely love being around and caring for kids. I love planning activities, playing outside, reading etc. I love being able to watch a child I look after flourish and development into their own unique character. I also am more than happy to help out with cleaning up around the house, preparing meals, bathing etc. A bit about me: I love playing sports (netball and football), being in nature, cooking, listening to music, leading an active lifestyle as well as partaking in spontaneous activities with my friends and always trying and learning new things! I am more than happy to give anymore information required by potential employers and provide parent references. I recently refreshed my first aid, I have a car and have a WWCC. Rates wise: When looking after two children I have typically recieved an additional $5 per hour.
