Hello, My name Is Rayan, I'm 19 years old, I enjoy listening to music, watching movies and going to the gym. I have a little brother that I almost raised myself along with my parents as I was always taking care of him. He's 12 years old now but I've been a growing part of his life since birth not just as a title of "big brother" but as someone who helped to raise him. I enjoy little things in life and wish to be a police officer someday :D

I am a very down to earth, polite and passionate person with a love for children and looking after people. I have a giving nature and grew up speaking both Italian and English. I am currently studying Criminology as well as working as a beautician casually.

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

Hey Families! I'm Sharni and I am so excited to meet you. Growing up, I have always been surrounded by kids. I have 2 younger sisters as well as an older sister. I love them and all the fun times we had together. I have a big family, filled with lots of younger cousins. Every family event, we would all play together, whether that was tag or making mud cakes. There was never a dull moment. When I look after my younger cousins we spend time doing fun activities such as, baking, colouring, painting, going to the park, playing outside, reading books and much more. I have so much fun interacting with children. I love seeing them having fun and learning new skills. In my spare time, I enjoy going to the gym, doing pilates, going for walks, reading and spending time with my family. I look forward to meeting you and creating long lasting relationships and memories.
