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.

As a compassionate and dedicated babysitter, I bring an abundance of warmth and empathy to every interaction with the small humans I hang out with. My bubbly personality ensures that I create a lively and engaging environment where kids feel comfortable expressing themselves. I approach each child with an open mind, embracing their unique personalities and interests. Whether it's playing games, reading stories, or simply listening attentively, I prioritize building strong connections based on trust and understanding. With a keen sense of responsibility and a genuine love for children, I strive to provide a safe and supportive space where young minds can flourish and thrive. (Albeit cheesy :)

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 :)

I’m an experienced nanny and childcare worker with over 20 years in the industry, as well as a proud mum myself—so I truly understand the complexities of family life. I’m currently looking for 1-2 days a week and would love to find the right family to support. I have a Diploma in Counselling, a Graduate Certificate in Family Violence and diploma in Auslan, along with great references, first aid certification, a police check, a Working with Children’s Check and my own car. I’ve cared for families with up to four children, including one with two sets of twins (6 months and 2 years old!)—so I have no problem managing chaos and juggling multiple things at once! As a nanny, I bring energy, warmth, and fun to every day. I love being outdoors, dancing and singing to music, and taking trips to the beach or on little adventures (train rides are always a hit!). Sometimes, the best moments are the simplest—watching birds fly by, playing in the dirt, or just being in the moment with little ones. I’ve worked with many families over the years, and I truly believe that great communication is the key to a successful nanny-family relationship. I’d love to connect and see if we’re the right fit—looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello, my name is Camila and I am 25 years old. I am an English student here in Melbourne. In my country, Chile, I studied a Bachelor's Degree in Physical Activity and Health, because I really like sports and healthy living. After graduating, I worked at a gymnastics school, where I taught classes to girls and boys from 2 to 10 years old. Because of this, I have experience with young children, a lot of patience and a desire to teach. I like to motivate children to lead a physically active life, where they can play sports, as well as accompany them in other activities such as reading, singing and dancing. I would love to be your daughter or son's babysitter. Right now I am on vacation from my studies, but when I return to school I can adjust my schedule according to what is needed. Have a nice day!
