Hi Families, I am Thai and hold both New Zealand and Thai citizenship. I lived in New Zealand from 2000 to 2007 before moving to Australia in mid-2007, and Melbourne has been my home since 2009. My experience includes babysitting for a family in New Zealand, working on Hamilton Island, and over 10 years of working in council and private early learning centers across Melbourne. I have extensive experience with children under 5 years old, but I am also happy to look after older children. My approach is rooted in understanding each child’s unique nature and needs. I believe every child is different, so I treat each one based on their interests and actively listen to their voices. Ultimately, my priority is to ensure they are safe and happy. I am seeking an opportunity to fulfill my passion for working with children. My enthusiasm for being around kids, combined with my extensive experience and knowledge in early childhood education, along with my past work in hospitality, travel and tourism, and business, enables me to make a positive difference for your family. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to your family and help your children thrive. Warm regards, Tanya P.

Hello, I am Laura, I am 23 years old and although it sounds incredible I have 9 years of experience taking care of children between my nephews, cousins, casual jobs as a babysitter/nanny and also, I was an Au pair in United States for two years. I love taking care of the little ones, and I feel a real passion doing it with all I can.

I graduated Firbank Grammar school in 2015, and commenced a Bachelor of Visual Communication and Design at Deakin in March 2017. I have nearly 10 years of experience with kids. I have previously worked as a soccer coach for children between the ages of 5 and 14 and believe this has made me able to interact well with kids, and have fun with them without being too lenient. I have also worked nannying for over 5 years with children aged 4-15. I am a caring, considerate, fun, sporty and creative person and love playing with kids and assisting them in their development. I have most recently nannied for a family of 3 kids and had the responsibilities of school pick ups, grocery shopping, lunchbox making, cooking dinner, homework supervision, folding, ironing and washing, stacking and unstacking the dishwasher, care of new puppy as well as errands like dropping off dry cleaning etc. I have my full license and my own car. Over the last few years I’ve worked in business management of hospitality companies. I believe this has increased my skills in numerous aspects that will translate back into working as a nanny.

Hi families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful 29 year old of my own. 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. 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 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. Nb. I have had my car licence for 40 years & I'm a very careful driver with a full licence & faultless record with Zero accidents or 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 $34-40 per hour & I prefer to work a minimum of 3 hours. Thank you. ☺️ Thank you for reading & have a lovely day! Sincerely Fionna

Hello lovely families. My name is Ebony and I am a 25 year old Psychology and Acting student. I have been honoured to be a trusted nanny and house helper to a diverse set of families of varying ages for both and long and short term periods, some of which I have been so fortunate to have moved on from remaining a member of the family and close friend, watching children grow from kinder to final years of primary school. I love thinking of new and exciting ways to make mundane and sometimes challenging tasks for children fun, as-well as being a gentle, kind and patient carer. When I am not caring for children and studying, I love going on hikes with my two rescue dogs and baking and cooking for friends and family (which I've always loved to share with families I've worked with!)

I currently work as a paramedic and am available for casual nannying and babysitting on my days off. I previously worked as a professional nanny and early childhood educator for over 9 years and have been a paramedic for over 4 years. I have worked with children of all different backgrounds and abilities, from newborns to teenagers. I believe that all children are unique individuals who learn and grow at their own pace, and I strive to ensure that children in my care are happy, healthy and safe at all times.
