Babysitters in Watsons Creek, VIC

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 :)

F, 32, babysitting experience with a young family (23/24). I consider myself to be a calm, happy and relationally healthy person who is attentive to the needs of others and enjoys caring and accompanying. I have been an artist/painter running my own small business and am currently on a two year art residency in Cottles Bridge. I have recently graduated with a nursing diploma (2024); this path has led me into personal care work in aged care with people living with dementia, which I love.

Hi! My name is Elise, and I'm currently studying nutrition and dietetics at university. I have always loved kids - I think they're so positive, wise and fun, as well as adorable! Ever since I was younger, I've always been told that I'm great with kids, and I've always been really interested in being a nanny or babysitter. Whilst I don't have any professional experience, I often babysit for families on my street, family friends and family members - which I always really enjoy doing! I love how insightful and curious children are, and playing with them, and seeing them happy always makes me smile. Being still relatively young myself, I feel as though I will be able to connect well with children, and get along with them both as a care-giver / supervisor, but also as a friend / older-sister or cousin figure. A lot of my younger cousins are getting to the age where they're too big now to want to play, so I'm really excited to get the chance to be able to look after new kids! Thank you for the consideration!
