Babysitters in South Wharf, VIC

Hello Parents! I am a very experienced nanny who has helped families raise their children from newborn to 7 years of age, specialising in infant and toddler care. With over 9 dedicated years of child-care, my approach is a beautiful balance of nurture, compassion, patience, and professionalism. I also hold a Level 4 OCN Maternity Practitioner Certificate. I have worked with a diverse range of households, from honouring religious beliefs; caring for children with special needs and working with specialist professionals to assist in their development; to providing parents with strategies that have helped their infant sleep. I'm well-versed in: establishing day time routines that encompass feeds, food, sleep, and play; ensuring developmental milestones are reached; implementing stimulating and engaging learning activities. Lots of song (I'm a lover of music), dance, fun and outdoor nature play too! I have spent the last 3 years raising my own little one, and am now looking to help families once again. Being a mother for the first time after caring for other people's children for many years has elevated my nannying style with grace. I'm grateful for the journey she has taken me on to continue my personal development. Please feel welcome to reach out should you have any questions. I am here to help 🌻
