I have just come home after working as a governess on a cattle/ Dorper station in South Australia, which involved both teaching and nannying. I looked after and teach a (7) Year 1, (10) Year 4 and 4 year old, and when the parents were away mustering interstate, I took care of the children and make sure we stuck to their usual routines, schoolwork and activities. Before becoming a governess, I worked as a kindergarten assistant teacher for 10 months, working with 3 and 4 year olds, and prior to that spent 9 months working in childcare with children from newborns through to 4 years old. I’ve also been babysitting for over 6 years and have experience caring for children with additional needs, including Level 2 autism, non verbal children, ADHD and literacy/reading difficulties.

Hi, I’m Milla! I’m a 20-year-old Law student who absolutely adores children. Growing up as the oldest sibling and oldest cousin in a big Italian-Australian family, caring for little ones has always been a huge part of my life. I’ve been babysitting for family and family friends since I was 15 and have always found it incredibly rewarding. I’m warm, outgoing, responsible and naturally playful, and I love creating fun, safe and happy environments for children. I’m now hoping to turn something I’ve always genuinely loved into a meaningful, long-term nannying role with a wonderful family.

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 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 also love working with neurodivergent people and am currently working part time as a disability support worker. I have my own ABN and insurance that covers all aspects of my work in both the disability and nannying/babysitting sectors. I can invoice through my business for casual or short-term roles, but I'm also open to employment terms and rates for long-term roles. I have a reliable car with room for all the seats, I'm willing to travel, and I can provide solid references. I've also had a lot of last minute bookings so I'm very comfortable just jumping in with families that 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.
