Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi! Im Vye, I am currently studying my medical undergraduate with plans to pursue a future postgraduate in Paediatrics, and my Philosophy degree simply for a passion of understanding humanity. I have had many jobs during university and high school and found that nannying is the one that feels most suited to me and my personality. I am kind, bubbly and outgoing, but am the eldest sibling in my family and have inherited a stern nature when it comes to knowing whats right and how to go about it. I have three years of experience with ages between 6 months - 5 years old. I am a big advocate for creative play without the need for screens (:

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

I’m Elyn, a warm, patient and reliable nanny based in Petersham. With experience as a babysitter, teacher assistant and volunteer in orphanages, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from tiny babies to curious toddlers and school-aged kids. Childcare has always been a meaningful part of my life. I love creating calm, engaging and safe spaces where children feel supported, valued and free to explore. Families describe me as nurturing, responsible and very communicative. My approach is grounded in respect, empathy and positive guidance — always following each child’s rhythm, needs and personality. I’m also studying Early Childhood Education, which helps me bring fresh, development-focused ideas into my work. I’m comfortable with pets and happy to assist with light household tasks to make your day easier. My goal is simple: to care for your little ones with the same love, patience and intention that I would want for my own future children.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi all, I am a Uni student looking for some work that fits in with studying! I am a dedicated student who loves all things health, fitness and helping people. I have previously worked as a lifeguard on the Mid North Coast beaches before moving to Sydney for university, so I am qualified in all things first aid and would be happy to do any water or sport activities with kids. I have experience with young bubs as young as 1 month old and kids. I am a calm, nurturing and confident person who also works at a school as a sports coach weekly. I have just finished up with my most recent nannying family, the role was looking after the baby from 1month old until 6 months. However, bub has now gone off to day care, and I am looking for a new role. My focus is on active learning and playing, going on adventures and trips to the park, playing outdoors, etc. I am looking for a short-term role until the end of the year, before travelling home to lifeguard over summer and would be back next year! Please reach out if I could be of assistance.

I'm a postgraduate student and freshly-redundant journalist looking for some nannying work while I finish the final semester of my studies. I have more than 3 years of childcare experience, having worked with 18 month-12 year olds in full and part time capacities. For almost two years, I looked after a toddler for 30 hours a week and really became enmeshed with the family. It's been incredible watching him grow from a two year old into an opinionated, kind and funny five year old, and I'm currently doing daycare pick ups every Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm a firm believer in compassion, humour, empathy, and bodily autonomy when it comes to childcare. Kids are just learning to navigate the world around them and it's my job to help. I love animals, books, craft, and music, and especially love sharing those things with the kids I'm looking after- I take your child's musical education very seriously. I'll never turn down a trip to the park, museum, or zoo, and I'm always there to help navigate homework. References available!
