I am a Master of Teaching (Early Childhood) student with a genuine passion for supporting children’s learning, wellbeing, and development. I have experience working as a casual educator in early childhood settings, where I create safe, engaging, and inclusive learning environments. I am reliable, patient, and eager to learn, with strong communication and teamwork skills. I enjoy building positive relationships with children, families, and colleagues while encouraging children’s curiosity and confidence. I am committed to providing high-quality care and meaningful learning experiences that help every child feel valued, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.

Over the past six years, I have had the privilege of caring for children across a wide range of ages and stages, which has given me a deep, practical understanding of child development, and allow me to bring both enthusiasm and confidence to every family I work with. My background spans both formal nannying roles and regular babysitting arrangements. Throughout my years of experience, I have supported children with a wide variety of needs and personalities. I have managed many varying tasks including homework help, extracurricular pickups, meal preparation, changing nappies/infancy care and house organisation. I take a warm, respectful, and consistent approach to childcare. I communicate openly and regularly with parents, providing updates throughout the day and flagging anything of note promptly and honestly. I am currently employed as a nanny, and am seeking further work within this field as I genuinely love building relationships with young children and helping them to develop and grow.

Every child is unique and an asset to the world. I strongly believe younger years of a child is very important to develop his or her personality. They need to be taken care of gently, talked nicely and raise them carefully. I'm cheerful and being a lecturer has given me immense skills to deal with children. If you think i could be the right match lets have a conversation.

Hi, I'm Sara! I am studying a Bachelor of Early Childhood and Primary Education this year, and would love to gain more experience in caring for children. I am going into my 4th year of Gymnastics Coaching, where I am responsible for 6-10 children aged 4-12 years old (per session). At this club, I've learnt how to interact and work with many different children, so would love to further develop my experience. I have volunteered at a local childcare for the last 1.5 years (during my school holidays), mostly working with children aged 5 weeks to 2 years. Now, I work casually at this centre, in all the rooms! This has allowed me to learn further about children's needs, and how to provide an enriching environment for them. I currently have a Working with Vulnerable People's card, Working with Children’s Check, and am First Aid/CPR/anaphylaxis qualified. These accreditations are kept up to date to ensure that those I work with are safe.

I have first aid certificate and police check, excellent references and excellent resource and materials. I am able to offer a huge range of craft and activities for every age group. I can cook nutritional meals that are also tasty, from stir fry to roasts. I have always loved my work, it is a wonderful experience.

I am a mother of two kids age 11 and 14, both of whom are autistic, like me. I am an experienced tutor and a published author, who owns two cats.
