Babysitters in Western Melbourne, VIC

Hi, 👋🏼😃 My name is Katelyn, I’m a responsible, caring, and enthusiastic babysitter with over nine years of babysitting experience and more than three years working in a crèche environment. I currently work as an Educational Support Assistant, supporting children as they learn and grow in a safe, nurturing setting. I enjoy creating fun, engaging activities while making sure every child feels secure, respected, and valued. I’m reliable, patient, and more than happy to help with homework, bedtime routines, meals, creative play, and light household tasks. I’m currently looking for a more casual role and am very open to working with families to find something that suits everyone — whether that’s regular babysitting or occasional help. I’m also very pet-friendly and a total dog fanatic. I’d be more than happy to help care for pets alongside babysitting. I’d love the opportunity to support you and your family and get to know your little ones!

Hello! My name is Mackenzie or Kenzie for short! I am studying a certificate III in childhood education and care and have worked in long day care centres. I am originally from Brisbane and recently made the move to Melbourne. I love working with and looking after children.

Hello! My name is Izzy, I'm 21 and a great companion to kids. I myself am into stuff like kpop demon hunters, roblox, minecraft, monster high and so much more so I've always been able to keep kids entertained and got along great with them as if they're a distant cousin. I love being able to help people out with their children as I understand they can be a handful, especially when you're not sure what 67 means and sick of hearing Golden by Huntrix. I'm also very artistic and grew up always teaching younger children art, drawing with them and know I can bring value to children's imagination. I also am currently undiagnosed with autism and ADHD but all my doctors and past therapist has said I am so I'm more than happy to look after any neurodivergent children!

I have been working with young children ages from six weeks to five years old, for five and a half years and love interacting with children and families. For the older age groups, I have lots ideas to implement!! I’ve been passionate since I was little working with children and I have a lot of younger cousins and siblings and out with them, and thought that this was what I wanted to do.

As a babysitter, I excel at creating a nurturing and supportive environment for children. My patience and attentiveness allow me to connect with kids on their level, making them feel comfortable and valued. I enjoy planning engaging activities that cater to their interests, ensuring they have fun while learning and growing. I believe in open communication with both the children and their parents, which helps build trust and ensures everyone is on the same page. My reliability and sense of responsibility make me a dependable caregiver, and I take pride in fostering positive relationships with the children I look after.

Hi! I’m Jemima, a responsible, caring, and reliable babysitter with a genuine love for working with children. I’m patient, calm, and attentive, and I always aim to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment. I have experience caring for children of different ages as I have been fortunate to grow up in a big - loving family, lending a hand to take care of my cousins of all ages. I am confident with routines such as meals, bedtime, homework help, and playtime. I’m trustworthy, organised, and happy to follow family guidelines while also engaging kids through games, reading, and creative activities. Parents can feel comfortable knowing their children are well cared for and in safe hands with me.

Hi there 😊 Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I genuinely love spending time with children, and I've worked with all ages. From newborns to teenagers. I’ve had a lot of experience with babies and toddlers so I'm very comfortable and confident with feeding, bathing, changing, and bedtime routines. My style is warm hearted, kind, patient, nurturing and loving. I practice meditation and mindfulness which flows through to my work and allows me to maintain peace and calm when faced with challenges. I am encouraging and enthusiastic with children, which allows them to blossom and shine in their own unique ways. I also love working with neurodivergent people and am currently working part time as a disability support worker with my own ABN and insurance. I love being outdoors and an average day with me usually includes a walk to the local park, nature reserve, cafe, or at the very least a run around the backyard. I also enjoy outings to the Collingwood Children's Farm, Scienceworks, the Museum, the local Library and many more adventures when time permits. I've worked as an au pair in France, a volunteer teacher in Nepal, and a nanny and babysitter in Melbourne for over 10 years. I have a reliable car, I'm willing to travel and I can provide references. I've also had a lot of last minute bookings so I'm very comfortable just jumping in with families I'm meeting for the first time! Thank you, I look forward to hearing from you and wish you all the best in finding that perfect nanny or babysitter to suit your family.

Hello parents! I'm Kelly. I'm a regular ad hoc babysitter for multiple families across Fitzroy, Thornbury, Preston, Brunswick East, and Kew, with kids aged 1 to 11 years old. I am also a regular babysitter for my 5yo niece, who never fails to fill my heart with happiness as she explores the world. Babysitting is a joy, filled with crafts, playgrounds, Disney movies, baking sessions, bike rides, science experiments, and story time. I enjoy cooking and often prepare nourishing meals for the kids. Although my main focus is on giving the kids my full care and attention, I might have time to whip up a meal for parents as well. Warmth, authenticity, and nurturing are my go-tos. I'm all about fostering creativity and curiosity, making every moment a blend of fun and learning. Kids have this incredible knack for reminding us of life's simple joys! I am available after 430pm Mon to Thurs, after 1230pm Fridays, and weekends. I am excited about the opportunity to connect with you and your children ☺️
