Hello! I'm Sofía, 24 years old, and from Spain. I arrived in Melbourne in January to experience life and learn English. I studied Tourism and Business Administration and worked in many fields, one of them being a nanny, a wonderful experience. During the summer months, I babysat in my hometown. My greatest achievement has been caring for and, above all, entertaining five girls at once! They range in age from 2 to 6. I'd love to continue that job here, as I love it. I can also do housework, as I've been cleaning houses these past few months in Australia. And why not teach the little ones Spanish? It would be a valuable opportunity for the children to have fun while learning a language.

I am working as an early childhood educator. I also do children events on weekends (hair braiding, henna/mehandi, face painting, bubbles, balloon twisting). Before this, I have worked as an OSHC educator with YMCA. I have been working with 6 months to 12 years old children for more than 1.5 years. I have also worked as a full time nanny of 1.5 years old child. My job was taking him for nap, feeding him, taking him to the park twice a day, playing and engaging with him while parents were not around, taking care of him. I used engage with him and his sister with some activities like building blocks, reading stories, playing with balls and many more, especially when it was rainy day and we could not go out to the park.In the park, we used collect different kinds of leaves, sand and tanbarks to pretend like they are shopkeeper or seller and I am customer (who wants to buy food in exchange of money (leaves). Some cooking activities with sand and tankbark, such as baking cake, pancake and so on. Some activities like changing his nappy, cleaning and sanitizer tha milk and water bottles was also part of routine.

I am an experienced sole charge nanny/babysitter who is comfortable caring for children of all ages. I have an affinity with children and enjoy their company and am genuinely interested in their wellbeing and development. My references will reflect that as a nanny I believe my role is to try to be an extension of the child's parents- respecting their beliefs and practices at all times as well as providing a warm, loving, fun, imaginative, calm and nurturing environment for the child. I have 3+ years experience caring for children aged 1 year to 8 years adhering to the principles of the Early Years Learning Framework. I am reliable and punctual. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.

Hi Mums and Dads, I’m from Taiwan and currently studying Early Childhood Education at Melbourne Polytechnic. In 2019, I worked as an au pair in London, spending a year with a lovely family of three children. We’re still in touch, and they kindly supported me by writing a reference letter for my Australian student visa application. After returning to Taiwan, I worked as a part-time English tutor at World Family English for two years, teaching children aged 3 to 12. I then had the opportunity to work as a part-time English teacher at Papa Jordan International Preschool, where I focused on teaching children aged 3 to 5. The same experiences inspired me to further develop my skills in early childhood education, which is why I’m now back in Melbourne to continue my studies.
