Hello! My name is Freya, and i am 19 years old! I am studying at Melbourne University and currently live on campus in Parkville.

I'm always looking for a bit of fun, but i am always responsible. I'd love to make a difference in a young child's life, however small this difference may be. I know how much of an impact my babysitters had on me when i was young, and i hope to create an equally positive environment for the children i babysit.

I am an excellent babysitter. In my family, all my cousins used to give their children to me whenever they were busy or had something else to attend to. And I can say with pride that I can handle babies. Regardless of their age, I treat them as if they were my child. If my job includes cooking for the babies, I will do that with so much care, and I will feed them. At the end, I can say that, dear parents, you can feel relaxed if your baby is with me.

My name is James, I am looking for some work in between my school work. I work as a mentor for kids and teens on the spectrum and I figured this would be not only a good way to some extra money, but also meet some interesting families. I am great with kids and love caring for others.

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! I currently look after a few families however my calendar has opened for a new family in 2025. I commit to long hour and long term commitment for the year with all of my families. It's important. Currently I cover ages 8 months, 12 months, 2.5 years, 4.5 years and 9 & 11 years olds. I understand the variety of changing developments in children and adapt to these needs. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my entire life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old and up until now as a professional nanny for parents who are doctors, solicitors, engineers, school teachers, marketing specialist and even a CEO. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with human development, of which I have covered extensively. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress and anxiety is about the energy from the nanny/babysitter. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age carer can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I follow routines and set boundaries, (initiated from the parents) for all children because it creates security and trust with them. I participate in both home and outdoor activities and excursions. I can drive my own car (petrol charges incur) or use any parents' cars. I cover household cleaning (light house work: all things kids mess, upkeep where possible in the laundry area, keep kitchen clean) to take the burden away from parents so they can come home to a cleaner environment than perhaps they left it. This is always discussed in detail for any family because I am not a 'house cleaner' I am a Nanny. I am extremely reliable and punctual to enable all parents to relax knowing I will always be there for them. I look forward to hearing from you. Nanny Clare
