I have been a babysitter for 3 years now, where I have cared for ages ranging from 10 months to 13 years old.

Hello there! A little about me: I’m a compassionate, friendly, and caring person who is responsible and patient. I have a high spirit and a passion for life, remaining optimistic at all times. I am determined and confident in my abilities. Helping children grow in a healthy, happy, and safe environment is very important to me and comes naturally. I believe in educating children about right and wrong, as well as instilling great manners, which I encourage strongly. I have worked for many families in Australia and overseas, and I have also raised my own four children, including a set of twins, who are now wonderful young adults—educated, intelligent, and well-respected individuals (though I may be biased!). Throughout my many years of experience, I have cared for over a dozen families and have also worked with children who are hard of hearing, autistic, or battling leukemia. In addition to childcare, I do light housekeeping, including cooking and baking, which I truly enjoy, although it depends on the time available. I’m happy to assist with all ages of children; they are all lovely and unique in their own ways, and each presents its own delightful challenges. My previous occupations, aside from being a nanny, include laboratory assistant, fitness instructor, hospitality worker, caterer, receptionist, retail manager, administration officer, and integration aide. Although I am 58 years old, I am full of energy, fit, and healthy, and I embrace a healthy lifestyle, which keeps my outlook on life youthful! I have excellent references from previous and current employers who can verify my experience and work ethic as a nanny and educator. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss your family's needs. I look forward to hearing from you! Many thanks, Maria 😊

Reference by Emmalee “Absolutely worth her weight in gold! Sez is reliable, loyal and passionate about the care of little ones. She took the best of care of our baby girl from age 13 to 17 months with loads play and educational trips out. There was no doubt in our minds that our child was her number one focus. Excellent communication and highly educated - we could not recommend Sez highly enough! We were so lucky to have found a wonderful nanny straight away (have heard a few horror stories). While our little one is heading off to conventional child care for now, we will definitely still book Sez on the weekends and would love to have her back again for our next little one prior to heading off to childcare. “ I have years of experience , kind and loving nature with high tolerance and peaceful demeanour . I will make sure your house is also in order and clean for not only you but also for your children. . You can contact me and see if i can help your family out xx

Hi there, My name is Jess, and I am 34 years old. I have worked with children for the past 16 years in a range of different environments. For the last few years I have been working as a nanny, looking after children from as young as 2 weeks up to 15 years of age. Up until November 2015, I managed before and after school care programs; with numbers of children ranging from 5 children up to 45 children at a time with a ratio of 1 adult to 15 children. I found that I was lacking the connection with the children particularly in the larger settings as my role was more of a supervisor rather than a friend/role model to the children so I’m hoping to gain that through a nannying/babysitting role. I have my Senior First Aid & CPR Certificate, Working with Children Check, Food Handlers Certificates, clean driver’s licence and my own reliable car. I have previously completed anaphylaxis/allergy training, as well as asthma training, and feel that I am competent in each element. I also have experience looking after children with autism (severe and mild), angelman syndrome, global delay, Down Syndrome, epilepsy and anaphylaxis/severe allergies etc. I have experience as a Support Worker too. I have experience looking after very young babies (as young as two days old), multiples and many young children at a time. I have also been very involved in setting up sleep routines for babies, including sleep training. I'm a kind, caring, loving, responsible person who is honest and very trustworthy. I've worked in Out of School Hours Care, Long Day Child Care, Occasional Care, Private Nannying, and as an Au Pair overseas in 2010. Hopefully I'll hear from you soon! Thanks! Jess
