Babysitters in Southbank, VIC

My name is Julie, I'm a 22-year-old French woman who has just arrived in Melbourne on a 1-year working holiday visa. I'm a cheerful and creative person, I love reading and doing crafts.

Hi! I’m Chrissy, a friendly and responsible babysitter based in Melbourne. I graduated from RMIT last year with a degree in Marketing, and because I love children, I’m now studying Early Childhood Education. I also work casually in before- and after-school care programs, and have experience working in different schools and kindergartens. During school holidays, I’ve looked after groups of primary school–aged children — helping with meals, taking them to activities like tennis lessons, and assisting with routines like showers and getting ready. These experiences taught me how to stay organised and keep things fun and calm, even with a few kids at once. I really enjoy spending time with children, doing creative activities, and helping them learn while having fun. I have all the required certificates (WWCC, First Aid, etc.) and experience caring for both young and school-aged children. I’m reliable, patient, and love creating a safe and positive environment for every child I look after. Looking forward to meeting your family! 😊

I am pursuing my Master's study. I love kids and I enjoy taking care of them. I am empathetic, caring and gentle when it comes to handling them and I am sure kids will enjoy my company and we will have best of our time together.

Hi there! I’m a 29-year-old Italian babysitter, fluent in English, Italian, French, and Spanish. I’ve been babysitting summer after summer back in Italy for several years, working with children of different ages, and have always received wonderful feedback; both from parents and kids. Reliability is one of my strongest traits: you can count on me to show up on time, follow guidelines, and care deeply about your children’s comfort and happiness. I love creating fun, safe environments; whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor games, helping with homework, or just being there to listen. If you’d like, I can share a recommendation from one of the moms I worked for.

My name is Jade, I am 22 years old. I have a passion for working with children and making a difference so I am currently studying occupational therapy (allied health), but will be changing over to nursing in 2026. After I graduate, I aim to work in paediatrics. I have worked in many childminding roles (i.e., childminder at a gym, miniBOUNCE, etc.). I have babysat for many families whom I have met through my work and I have loved each one. I have also done support work so I am comfortable working with children who may have additional needs. I have been working with children professionally since 2021. I currently live in Brisbane, Queensland, but will be moving to Melbourne mid February next year. My main contact hours with uni are on Mondays.

Hi, I'm Lucie and I'm 25 years old from the UK but I have been living in Australia for the past 2 years. I am currently based in St Kilda and I'm looking for casual babysitting work. Throughout my time in Australia I have been working as an Au Pair / nanny with 2 different families. Last year I spent 7 months caring for 2 young boys in Queensland and I have just completed 10 months caring and nannying for a 6 year old boy here in Melbourne. These duties included before and after school care ( prep breakfast and lunch boxes, taking and picking up from school, homework, playing, dinner prep and bed time routines). I have also been doing weekend work for other families in between from ages as young as 10 months to 11 year olds. I enjoy activities with the children such as arts, crafts, sports, walking to parks, and games. I believe my confidence with children has exceptionally grown with having 2 years of experience in childcare as well as verbal communication, patience, and creativity. Most importantly the safety and well-being of your child is the crucial factor when working in this sector and I would love to help your families in caring for your children.

A loving, reliable, trustworthy, proactive and happy experienced nanny for the last 9 years. I have cared for children over the years from newborns to 16 years old. I specialised in creating safe, joyful, and stimulating environments where children can thrive. From crafting creative activities to managing meal times and bedtimes seamlessly, I bring a blend of enthusiasm and reliability to every family I work with.

Hi! My name is Niamh — I’m 25 and originally from Ireland, currently living in Melbourne on a 417 Working Holiday Visa. I am just recently back to Melbourne after completing my 88 Days for my 2nd year visa! As the oldest of three, I’ve always had a natural role caring for children, and over the years I’ve gained extensive experience looking after little ones from newborns up to 15 years old — including twins and larger families of four or five kids. I’m a warm, caring, and active person who loves keeping kids engaged — whether that’s heading out for walks, spending time at the park, or finding fun ways to stay busy at home. I’m also great at maintaining routines, from school drop-offs and pick-ups to meal prep, nap schedules, tummy time, and daily activities. I have previous experience keeping detailed records of feeding times, naps, and medication administration to ensure everything runs smoothly. I hold a valid Working With Children Check and can provide references from families I’ve babysat for. I also have a driver’s licence (though no car at the moment) and am more than happy to help with light housework — and even walk the family dog! I also have no problem getting a police check if needed! Regarding casual babysitting, I am available most evenings and happy to stay overnight with prior notice given, as I do currently have current commitments with other families and other jobs! I am more than happy to have a call, coffee or chat prior to beginning work to make sure you think I am the right fit for your family! Have a lovely day! *rate is $40 as of my experience with kids and rate with previous family - however willing to negotiate with the right family!*
