Looking for: Full-time

My name is Áine, I’m 26 and I have recently moved to Melbourne. As an Irish native with a background in early childhood education and primary school teaching, coupled with hands-on experience as a nanny, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care and support to your children. My journey in education began in England, where I obtained qualifications as an early years educator and subsequently trained as a primary school teacher. During my tenure at a Catholic primary school in England, I had the privilege of teaching a vibrant reception class of 30 children, honing my skills in communication, patience, and creativity. Following my time in England, I embarked on an enriching experience in Spain, where I served as a nanny to two delightful children, aged 10 months and 3 years. This role allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the unique needs of individual children and the importance of fostering a nurturing and stimulating environment. Now, having relocated to Melbourne, specifically South Yarra, I am excited about the opportunity to bring my expertise and passion for childcare to a new family. As a nanny, I believe in the significance of fostering a supportive and loving atmosphere, where children can thrive emotionally, intellectually, and socially. My approach is rooted in patience, kindness, and a genuine love for helping children reach their full potential. I am adept at creating engaging activities, promoting educational growth, and maintaining open communication with both children and parents. Additionally, my experience as a primary school teacher equips me with valuable skills in organisation, time management, and conflict resolution, which are essential in managing a busy household.

My calendar is getting fuller by the day! ****************************** Hi, I am a mature, experienced, active, healthy,happy, passionate carer. I have been looking after children since I was 13. I have two grown up children and currently working as a Nanny.

I will have a few days on offer to a family who has a stable ( min.6 mth ) work to offer. I can do some casual work in my spare time, or have permanent work, if it fits my weekly workload. I have kept in touch long term with some of the families who I’ve worked for in the past. I have experience from newborn to teenagers. Lately I have been working with babies a lot... I speak, read and write fluent English and Hungarian,( I can understand a very minimal German .)-- also teach and participate in Hungarian folk-dance two evenings a week.(sometimes more if we have a production coming up). Dancing is a big part of my life, it is a great way to keep fit!! Also love gardening, and spending time on the beach...or riding my bike.. I am a MOTIVATED, EXPERIENCED, CARING, RESPONSIBLE, PATIENT, RELIABLE, person with common sense, and good organizing skills. I have worked with a family with multiple children, and have taken sole care of 3 children under 3 years old, including twins. I love children, and they love me too :-) Would prefer daytime work (available from early morning), but I will be happy to do casual hrs as well. You will be surprised what can be achieved in a few hrs in the morning! I can be very flexible for the right family, as all my references will tell you. Family pets are no problem. I have checkable (GREAT) references for you. Looking forward to hearing from you. ****Thank you, and have a great day :). Maria H
