Hi there. My name is Sally and I am a mother of two adult children. In August 2021 I relocated from Perth to Melbourne to be closer to my children who have lived in Melbourne for nearly 3 years. I have extensive experience with both babies and children of all ages. I retired 6 1/2 years ago and have been babysitting ever since. In fact, I've had the same 7 families for the entire 6 years. Babies grew up, little brothers and sisters came along and then it became school pickups, sports days and assemblies. When my children were young I worked in a creche, specialising in children from newborn to 4 years old, as well as a preschool. I dearly love children, feel I have a warm and loving nature and enjoy interacting in a fun way and with a sense of humour but also have the experience and maturity to ensure the home runs smoothly. I have a clean drivers license, police clearance, WWCC and have completed a St John's Community First Aid Course. I am fully vaccinated. Current references are available and encouraged. Please feel free to contact me for a chat. I'm always happy to pop over to meet you and your little ones any time.

Hello Mums and Dads, I know how crazy life can get with work, your little ones running around, and in these ‘new times’ with Covid, trying to manage everything can be really stressful. But worry no more because I think I can help!! My name is Olivia. I’m a compassionate, fun and patient 29-year-old Nanny and professional ‘Mums Helper’, who lives in inner Melbourne. I have been working closely with children and their families for over 8 years and I absolutely love my work. Over the years I have worked with a broad range of families and children (aged 2-15) including extensive experience with children who have various special needs, particularly Autism and also children with behavioural difficulties. There’s nothing more rewarding than putting in the work and having the patience and compassion when a child is struggling and then seeing them transform and blossom into the best versions of themselves. I have been working for a beautiful family with two boys (ages 10 and 7- the 10 year old has autism), at the end of this year it will be five years but sadly they will be moving to South Korea for the fathers work with the Defence Force so I am in need of work for in the New year. Growing up with many nannies (some great and some not so) I knew exactly the sort of Nanny and child caretaker I wanted to be. Someone who can be ‘silly’ (when the times right) and can have a laugh, who enjoys getting my hands dirty whether it’s arts and crafts, playing around in the backyard or building sand castles on the beach. I love reading stories and going on excursions whether it’s the Zoo, museum or just the local beaches and parks. I am also very experienced at helping children with their homework. 2020/2021 has also brought me new experiences as I had the chance to home school two boys. I am a strong believer that all caretakers should put away the ‘screens’ and be interactive and involved in the child/children’s lives as we play an important role and can have a huge positive impact across many aspects of a child’s life (creatively, play, learning, confidence building etc). I also understand it’s not all about the fun and games. Parents need help too. If you need help finding routine again, de-cluttering of toys, cleaning-up after the kids, washing and ironing for the whole family, organisation of home and just finding some calm amongst what can feel like ‘chaos’- I can help. I also love to cook and bake and can help with meal preparations, school lunch box prep and creating the occasional treat (or more) for the family to enjoy. If you need help with birthday parties; including birthday cakes and party food- I’d love to help. I can help with grocery shopping and any errands that are needed. If you’re only wanting a date night and just need a babysitter for the night I’m also available for any adhoc babysitting at short notice. I have my own car (2016 Hyundai i30) with 1 child seat and a full license. I have my first aid, double Covid Vaccination and Working with Childrens Check certificates.

Hello! My name is Stephanie. I am an Early Childhood Education student at Deakin University and am 22 years old. I currently live in a small apartment in the CBD with my husband and am experienced in cooking and homemaking. I have extensive experience with young children, including: before/after school care (educator), babysitting, kid’s church (leader), school holiday camps (cabin leader), and placement from previous study of Nursing/Midwifery and Primary Education (both also at Deakin). My greatest passion in life is being able to see children flourish and be cared for. As the middle child of eight siblings, I was exposed early to being responsible for those younger than me. In the early years, I believe that children develop best through play-based learning. From my experience, I have realised the importance of fostering a strong sense of identity, well-being, communication skills, confidence, and connection and contribution to their world. Most of all, I ensure that the child feels loved and appreciated, and I sincerely understand that the parent is the most important figure in their child’s path in life; I am adept in respecting the parents’ way of care. I have flexible availability, hold a current Working With Children Check and full drivers licence, and am willing to obtain a first aid certificate if necessary. I look forward to speaking with you and hope that I might be the right fit for your family. Stephanie.

Hi, my name is Georgie. I have over 25 years experience working with children and teenagers as a babysitter, teacher, tutor and nanny. I'm quick to connect with children of all ages and know every child is unique and in different moments is looking for something different from a carer. Ensuring your child is safe is my number one priority. Once they know you care, the rest generally works itself out-at times that may look like fun and games, sometimes they may need personal space and at others someone to ensure their routine is running along on track. Knowing what a parent is looking for in a babysitter/nanny and feeling like that matches what I think I can offer is as important as finding common ground with the children in your care.
