Babysitters in The Patch, VIC

Hello! My name is Jasmine i am 18 year old from Melbourne with a love for children. Growing up in a big family, I've had the joy of spending time with cousins ranging from newborns to young teens. These experiences have sparked my passion for nurturing and supporting young minds.Childcare runs in my family my grandmother and three aunties have all dedicated over a decade to working as nannies and in childcare roles. Their commitment and wisdom have been a constant source of inspiration for me. Through them, I've learned the importance of patience, empathy, and creating a safe, engaging environment for children to thrive. In 2022 I began my professional journey as a team member at Coles where I developed strong customer service and teamwork skills. Eager to expand my horizons, I completed a Certificate III in Business in 2023 equipping me with valuable administrative and organizational abilities. Currently I work as a Community Assistant for a property developer, engaging with diverse communities and honing my communication skills. I completed Year 12 in 2024 at Carrum Downs Secondary College, where I further developed my academic and interpersonal skills. While I've gained valuable experience in these roles, my heart truly lies in working with children. I'm now seeking opportunities that align with this passion, where I can make a positive impact on young lives. With a driver's license and my own car, I'm flexible and ready to embrace new challenges in the childcare field.

Hi, I’m Tayla! I’m a warm, experienced nanny based in Chelsea, VIC, and currently studying a Diploma of Youth Work at RMIT. I work with a lovely family on Mondays (G1.5 & B4) and am looking for another nannying role outside of my studies. I recently moved back home after spending two years in London, where I worked in nanny recruitment while also babysitting on the side. Before that, I was a nanny in Melbourne for over five years, caring for children from 8 months to 16 years old. My experience spans everything from bottles and nap routines to school runs, homework help, and planning engaging activities for all ages. I also have a Diploma in Musical Theatre, and I love bringing creativity, music, and storytelling into my time with children. I’m also a keen cook and happy to prepare meals when needed! I recently completed a temporary role caring for 8-month-old twins, which reminded me how much I love being a hands-on nanny. I’m a confident driver with a clean record and hold Infant First Aid certification, a Working with Children’s Check, a Police Check, and I’m fully vaccinated. I’d love to connect with a family where I can bring my experience, enthusiasm, and nurturing approach. Looking forward to meeting you!

Hi ! My name is Madi, I'm a 22 year old uni student, studying Nursing at Latrobe University. I reside from the country however currently live in Balwyn area.

I am trust worthy, honest and reliable with the children, to ensure parents are worry free when their children are in my care.

Hi, my name is Immense. I am very fond of kids and love to be around and spend time with them. I do not have professional experience but I have experience of taking care of my siblings/ cousins since they were infants. I have also been a Sunday school teacher at church for 8 years, which has given me more experience related to kids. I am more of a creative, energetic & fun person. Apart from babysitting, I can also help with any type of homework and I am fond of pets too. I am available at your convenience throughout the week.

Hi families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ 🌺 I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful independent 30 year old son. I have a positive, upbeat & engaging personality. I was a School Captain & have the ability to get along with all types of people. I have done some voluntary work for Single Family camps creating programs for children at these camps & I was responsible for keeping babies, toddlers & even teens occupied while giving Mum or Dad some much needed respite. This was a fantastic experience & I resided at these 5 day camps solely to help out with the other camp leaders in a Voluntary capacity. I have also worked as a Swimming Teacher with the under 5's which I found very rewarding. In my last 12 years working as a Nanny I have cared for twins, multiple children (up to 8 at one time in total) & children with special needs such as autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, asthma, diabetes, eczema & other challenging health conditions. I'm experienced with new born babies up to teens. I am trustworthy & reliable & known for being punctual. I'm a very good communicator. I’m hard-working, diligent, energetic & enthusiastic and a whole lot of fun! I have trained in nursing and paramedic studies. I have had extensive experience with babies and children dating back to the age of 9 when I babysat the neighbours children (including a couple of newborns!).... in total 15 !! I have always been mature & responsible beyond my years. I have been surrounded by children my whole life including my 4 younger siblings and 30 1st cousins! I was a mother figure to my 4 younger siblings as my mother was working full-time as a Nursing Sister & my father was away from home a lot in his job as an International Airline Captain. I have had a lot of responsibility thrust upon me from a very young age! I am Aunty to 13 nieces & nephews & am very close to them & we catch up on a regular basis. I enjoy the spontaneous and honest interaction that children provide and I find it immensely rewarding knowing that I am able to influence and help a child to learn and grow confidently. I'm fair with a gentle approach & can be firm while teaching boundaries. I believe all children require stability and need to know they are loved and lovable as a basic right. I never cease to be amazed at the lessons that children can teach us adults! I am inspired by the enthusiasm that children have when learning about the world around them. I tend to establish a good rapport with the young ones I care for which I find very rewarding. Children are so precious & truly a blessing to be cherished. Importantly I am pro-active with a 'can do' attitude & I have a keen eye for detail so nothing goes unnoticed! I am very safety-conscious so your childs welfare is of utmost importance to me at all times. I can be flexible with time & I am more than happy to work with you to suit you and your childrens ongoing needs. I also do pet-minding/house sitting (many years now since I was a young girl) & have had a dog walking/dog training gig too so I'm comfortable with all types of pets. I love all animals. 🤗 *Important to know...... I have had my car licence for 40 years & I'm a very cautious driver with a full licence & faultless record with Zero accidents & no demerits! I look forward to meeting you and your precious children. *My rate is dependent on time of day & number of children needing care. As per industry regulations my rate starts at $35-40 per hour & I prefer to work a minimum of 3 hours. As a tutor helping with homework my rate is the standard rate of $40 helping one student. Thank you. ☺️ *My most recent role involved caring for a newborn baby & his toddler brother which I really loved. Their Mum has written an excellent reference that is available for your perusal.* Thanks so much for reading & have a lovely day! Sincerely yours Fionna

I've just recently moved from Sydney to Melbourne. I was working as a swim coach for kids for 6 years ages ranged from 3months to 13years old so very comfortable around any age of kids. I've also coached kids soccer and basketball as well as taught kids piano. I was doing plenty of babysitting, nannying and tutoring for kids in Sydney and can provide references. I love working with and being around kids, just got back from 4 months travelling as well so my WWCC expired and I will be renewing that ASAP. I have a motorbike so can transport myself and I have access to a car if and when needed as well.

As an experienced Babysitter/Nanny, I bring a unique blend of maternal wisdom and professional care developed through raising my own son (now 17) and 27 years of running a successful beauty business. My approach combines nurturing support with gentle structure, creating an environment where children feel both secure and encouraged to grow. Having managed my own business, I understand the importance of reliability, clear communication, and adapting to changing needs—skills I apply to childcare with natural ease. Currently pursuing studies in Western Herbal Medicine, I bring knowledge of holistic wellness and nutrition to support children's overall health. My years of client care have honed my ability to build trusting relationships, while my experience as a mother has taught me patience, understanding, and the joy of supporting a child's development. I offer parents not just childcare, but peace of mind knowing their children are in capable, caring hands while they're away.

I have always had a passion for working with children and have gained valuable experience caring for them from a young age. As an aunt since I was 8, I’ve grown up looking after nephews and cousins, developing patience, responsibility, and a nurturing approach. While I may be young, I deeply understand the importance of providing attentive care, creating a safe environment, and building positive relationships with kids. My genuine love for children, combined with my hands-on experience, makes me confident in my ability to provide a fun, supportive, and reliable babysitting or nannying service.

Hello there! I'm currently seeking a part-time or casual nanny position after the family I’ve been working with moved out of town. I have over a decade of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, and I’ve formed long-term, trusting relationships with families I’ve worked with. I frequently step in as auntie for close friends and family, and have a step-daughter of my own too, and I also work as a kids’ party, workshop and play space facilitator, fuelling my passion for supporting self-expression, learning, empowerment and play. In other words, I love kid's and am very experienced! Prior studies in yoga and eastern philosophies, and my current focus on counselling and psychology, along with personal experience navigating mental health and neurodiversity, have contributed greatly to my ability to understand and attune to and communicate well with children. I have a high capacity for providing emotional support, practicing non-violent communication and staying calm and regulated in stressful situations. My priority is to foster a mutually safe, trusting relationship with children and their families, and to nurture emotional regulation and connection, ensuring children feel seen, heard, and respected, as well as being a positive role-model. I bring a playful and creative spirit, with a love for exploration, adventures and cozy moments at home. I enjoy cooking, baking, making music, arts and crafts, and exploring nature, museums, playgrounds, libraries, galleries parks and all whatever adventures one could go on! I'm confident with taking the lead, planning activities, engaging in play and coming up with ideas that encourage joy and learning. I'm also a big fan of child-lead play and enjoy discovering and nurturing whatever sparks the child's interest and enthusiasm, and I find it very rewarding being a part of nurturing a child's interests and talent. I’m very happy to assist with daily tasks like morning and bedtime routines, school drop-offs, errands, meal prep, homework, laundry and general household upkeep. Grossed out by the head lice your kid kindly bought home from kinder? I'll happily take care of that for you too :P I'm very aware of the stress and chaos that can come with juggling work, home and kid's, and take joy in being able to help in whatever ways I can to help take some of the pressure off. Being invited into a child's life to nurture their wellbeing and help them to grow, learn, and enjoy their world is a privilege and a joy, and I look forward to continuing to be a positive, supportive and inspiring presence for the next little human and their family. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile and feel free to get in touch with any questions or to arrange a conversation if we sound like a good fit :)
