Nannies in Surry Hills, NSW

Hi families! My name is Gloria, I'm italian, I'm 29 years old and I've been living in Australia for over two years. During this time, I’ve gained more than two years of experience as a babysitter, caring for children of different ages. I’m a cheerful, responsible, and attentive person, and I can provide references upon request. I’m currently looking for a new family to work with, even just for a few hours a week or depending on your needs :)

Qualified Sleep Consultant, night nanny and 24hr live in baby nanny (Maternity Practitioner). Hi families, I’m Jennifer. I’ve been working with babies, children, and their families for over 24 years, and I still feel just as passionate about it today as I did when I started. Early in my career, I worked as a live-in nanny for families all over the world - sometimes caring for up to five children in one household, from newborns through to teenagers (managing the whole household + all of the children's activities and needs). It was during this time that I discovered my love for working with newborns, then went on to study more about newborn care and sleep consulting. In 2006, I became a fully accredited Maternity Practitioner through the Maternity Nurse Training College at Reading University in the UK. I'm also a qualified Sleep Consultant and Doula. For more than two decades, I have specialised in postnatal care, night nannying, and sleep training for babies aged 0 - 5 years. I’ve had the privilege of living in with thousands of families across more than 60 countries, often supporting them 24/7 during those precious early months. I’ve guided parents through everything from feeding and settling to establishing healthy routines - and in the process, I’ve developed a gentle, hands-on approach that helps even very young babies learn to sleep soundly (often up to 10 hours a night with feeds). This depth of experience has also allowed me to create my own style of sleep training for older babies. My methods are baby-led and flexible - I don’t follow rigid wake windows or strict routines. Instead, I work closely with each family to create a plan that suits their baby’s needs and their parenting style. My programs have supported thousands of families both online and in person, and I currently consult with up to 10 families per week while also continuing to work as a nanny and in-home sleep consultant. Throughout my career, I’ve cared for hundreds of single babies, more than 50 sets of twins, and two sets of triplets. I’ve clocked well over 70,000 hours living in with families, and every experience has taught me something new. Outside of work, I enjoy living a healthy, balanced lifestyle - I love travelling, staying active at the gym, and cooking. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found a meaningful career that allows me to support families during what can often be a stressful time - and help make it feel a little easier.

Heyy my names Tom Lancaster! I’m from the UK, on a working holiday Visa and planning to stay indefinitely. Im a 23 year old male, who loves working with kids it’s my passion. I’ve been an activity instructor/group leader for just under 2 years now in the UK and Australia. Looking after up to 24 kids by myself and have enjoyed it so much! I love the way they look up to you and you literally see them gain so much confidence during the time I’m with them it’s amazing. I’m a very fun, enthusiastic, caring guy with a passion for embracing my inner child whilst looking after kids :). I find gaining there respect very easy as I treat them as a friend rather than a child, this makes it a lot easier when explaining rules they need to follow during activities and how they should behave. I’m looking to gain new skills as I’m looking at the possibility of teaching in the future and would love the opportunity to work with your family. :)) I have had three babysitting job so far so I can provide references. 1. A Jewish family with two kids ages boy aged 7 and girl aged 5 who had a background with domestic violence due to the mother abusing them and making them regress, for example making them wear diapers still. 2. A family with a 10 year old boy who has ADHD/Autism/PDA. This includes dealing with a lot of physical tantrums and panic attacks. 3. A Indian family with a 5 year old boy and 5 month year old baby.

I am a professional nanny with 20 years childcare experience and references. I have my childcare and current First aid certificates, also my current working with children check and current police Check. I am a mother of a 28 year old son. I'm a non-smoker and I have my Drivers License (which I've held for over 20 years). I also have my own car. I have experience working in childcare centres, nannying, before and after School care and babysitting. I have worked with children aged 0 - 13 years, (and up to 19 years of age.) I am generally a neat, clean and tidy person by nature, so I like to keep things/the place in order at all times. I'm also very safety and hygiene contious so I always practice good hygiene measures and ensure the safety of the children in my care, families and myself at all times and even more so due to our current covid19 situation. I am willing to do light house duties/chores. I can cook. I am also pet friendly and comfortable with pets such as dogs and cats. I reside in Kensington and I am very familiar with the eastern suburbs and surrounding areas such as south east, inner city, inner west, etc. I'm also familiar with parks, Libraries, playgroups in these areas and the need/benefits for children to attend these activities. I am both an indoor and outdoors person so I like to take children out to parks and walks as I believe it is beneficial for children to be outdoors to enjoy nature and explore and learn from the environment surrounding them. I also like being indoors if needed (due to rain). When indoors I like to engage the children in activities such as art and craft, collage, drawing, painting, manipulating play dough reading books, music, singing, dancing and yoga, also activities of their own interest ie, cars, blocks, Lego, dolls, even a cooking experience. I have been a nanny for various families and children.aged from New borns, 3 months and up to 13 years - 15 years of age. I have previously worked in a childcare centre with children aged 0-6yrs as a float for 7 years (where I filled in and covered the teachers for their breaks, Holidays and book work, in various rooms with different age groups). so I have alot of experience with all age groups from babies- toddlers- preschoolers and School aged children. I am currently available on Monday - Friday, also. on weekends for regular/casual or occasional babysitting. Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable nanny based near Redfern, with a background as a chef and a genuine love for working with kids.

Hi! I'm Rocío, but everyone calls me Ro. I'm 29 years old and someone who truly enjoys embracing new experiences. Travelling has been a big part of my journey—it has allowed me to connect with different cultures, meet people from all walks of life, and grow personally through new and sometimes challenging situations. I love building genuine connections and always try to give back the kindness and learning I receive from others. I'm naturally organized, detail-oriented, and always strive to give my best in everything I do. I believe punctuality and respect are key values that help build trust—both of which were instilled in me from a young age by my family. Even though I'm the youngest in my family, I’ve always been surrounded by younger cousins and naturally took on a caring, protective role. I’ve also had the wonderful experience of working as a field hockey coach in Miami, Florida, where I was responsible for coaching and caring for girls aged 4 to 9. It was a role that strengthened my nurturing side and confirmed how much I enjoy supporting children's development in a fun and safe environment. I'm currently based in Sydney and excited about the opportunity to work as a nanny, bringing my positive energy, care, and responsibility to a new family.

Hello Parents! I grew up in a tight-knit community, consisting of supportive families and their children. There were limited kids my age, so you would always find me chatting away with the adults or being chased after by my younger siblings and their friends in a game of tip! As I began to take on more responsibilities, I provided babysitting and cleaning services for these parents. This, in addition to growing up in a neurodiverse family (including myself) and later caring for my younger brother who has ASD, means I am responsible, understanding and patient. I love cooking delicious and healthy meals, keeping my space tidy and going on adventures! My hobbies include pottery, hiking, drawing, and reading (to name a few). Additional Info: I am in the process of getting a WWCC and have completed a successful Police Check. I have an NZ-restricted manual license and am first-aid certified.
