Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello, my name is Zuzana and I have over 25 years of child care experience gained in private homes, nursery schools, government schools, Childcare centres, Before and After School Clubs, playgroups and children’s home. I have worked with several families, with children aged from 12 weeks up to 14 years old. I worked as a nanny in London for 7 years for the same family. This helped me to gain experience with children from newborns up to 14 years old. I gained NVQ Level 2 and 3 in Year Years and childcare in London. I then moved to the West Midlands where I worked for local government schools including a Special Needs School. While I was working at the Special Needs school I also studied with The Open University where I gained Level 4 Certificate in Early Years Practice. (Diploma in Children's Services) In 2008 my husband and I moved to Australia where I worked as part-time Teaching Assistant and Team Leader (Mon – Wed) for Before and After School care in a Catholic School where I have worked for the last 4 years. I also work as live out part-time nanny. For the last 10 years I have worked as nanny/tutor in Hong Kong. I enjoy cycling, swimming, skiing, camping, yoga, craft, reading, gardening and travelling. In my spare time I love making handmade cards as well as inventing new recipes. Regards Zuzana Harris

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi there! My name is Lucy, I’m 28 years old and moved over from London at the start of last year. I was working for the Civil Service there on policy legislation but fancied a change of pace in sunny Australia- I love it here! I have had lots of babysitting experience before (and love kids!), including working for a lovely family (boy and girl aged 3 and 6) when I first arrived and have 3 brothers and sisters so I am used to a little chaos at times. I have also worked with children, including disabled children, teaching them to ride horses on the beaches in England (although I’m sure not as nice as the beaches in Australia!). I’m easy going, responsible but love to have fun and would love to find a nice babysitting job in Aus. Open to all ages/personalities/requirements! My number is 0406883458 if you would like to chat further.

Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi, I'm Sabrina! I'm stocked to introduce myself as a prospective babysitter, and I'm excited about the opportunity to work with your family. With a lifelong passion for working with children, I've been an unofficially babysitter to my baby sister since I was 10 years old and have been the go-to unpaid babysitter for my younger cousins. Additionally, I've worked at a preschool, organized summer camp activities, and worked with children aged 3 to teens. These experiences have not only honed my skills but also deepened my love for creating engaging and nurturing environments for kids. The kids I've worked with would likely describe me as the "coolest and most fun teacher" - an empathic listener, a great storyteller (I'm also the author of two books!), and maybe a bit of a softie when it comes to board games (I like to let them win!). My sister, on the other hand, might offer a more critical perspective, but I'm sure she'd agree that I'm responsible, ensure things don't get out of control, and prioritize her well-being including limiting screen time and making sure she eats and sleeps on time! As a babysitter, I'm committed to creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for your little ones. I'm passionate about getting to know each child as an individual and tailoring my approach to meet their unique needs and interests. I'm enthusiastic about the opportunity to work with your family and would love the chance to discuss how I can contribute to your child's care and development. Thank you for considering my application! Best regards, Sabrina Fernandez
