Hello families, I am a caring, reliable, and patient nanny/educator with over 15 years of experience working with children and supporting families. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where children feel comfortable, valued, and encouraged to learn and grow. I love engaging children in a variety of activities, including creative play, reading, outdoor adventures, and age-appropriate learning that supports their development. I understand the importance of routine, communication, and trust when working with families, and I always aim to be dependable and supportive in my role. I take pride in being attentive, calm, and organised, while also bringing warmth and kindness into the home. I believe children are wonderful little people who benefit from learning kindness, compassion, respect, and an understanding of right and wrong from a young age. My goal is to help children feel happy, confident, and secure, while giving parents peace of mind knowing their children are in safe and caring hands. In addition to my experience as a nanny/educator, I bring a diverse background in several roles including gym instructor, receptionist, administrator, catering, hospitality, retail manager, florist, and laboratory assistant. These experiences have helped me develop strong organisational, communication, and people skills that I bring into my work with families. I look forward to meeting and building a positive relationship with my next family. Many thanks Mia 🌸🌺🌸

Hi parents! I am a warm, caring, and reliable nursing masters student with over 3 years of experience working part-time as a nanny. I'm hoping to work as a part-time or casual nanny in the Northern suburbs alongside the remaining 18 months of my nursing studies. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and being actively involved in their day, whether that means playing games, doing crafts, helping with homework, or getting outdoors. I love encouraging children to spend time away from screens and finding fun activities we can do together. I am more than happy to help with household tasks such as meal preparation, laundry, and cleaning. I am also very comfortable driving children as I have been driving for 10 years and have my own car. I hold a current WWCC, Police Check, First Aid and Basic Life Support certification, and am happy to obtain an NDIS Screening Check if required. I have ample availability and flexibility around my nursing studies, except Wednesday and Friday daytime I'm in class. Looking forward to hearing from you :)

Hi lovely parents! My name is Téa and I am looking for work, either part time or casual. I am heading off to Europe in July and would love to connect with families who need support from mid August onwards as I am graduating from uni and will have lots of extra time on my hands. Ideally, any parents reaching out need someone to babysit/child mind on a regular basis or to help in regards to an upcoming event. Background: I am in my fourth year of uni, graduating at the end of this month with a bachelor of arts at the University of Melbourne. I have majored in psychology, and hope to one day work as an animal assisted therapist for children. Availability: I am available to work most days and most times as shown in the chart. However my availability does fluctuate (I will happily convey any changes with you) as I work as a chess coach in schools and work with 3 lovely families. One that requires before and afterschool help on Mondays and Thursdays, and the others require help occasionally. Rate: My rate is $40 per hour, but I charge an extra $10 per hour (ie. $50 per hour) if you are wanting me to stay past 10pm or work on a public holiday. Services: 1. Babysitting/child minding 2. Pet sitting/walking 3. Cooking/meal prep 4. Light cleaning 5. Basic homework help 6. Fun! Experience and Qualifications: As I’ve mentioned, I am currently working with three families. One where I look after two young boys aged 7 and 10, another where I look after a 7 yearold girl and 20 month old baby boy, and the third family has two boys aged 5 and 7. However, my experience working with children is much more vast. One of my hobbies growing up was playing chess, and I have fortunately been able to make a job out of it by tutoring primary and secondary school students. I have worked solo with classes of 3 to 20+ students at a time, and in team settings with 400 kids under my care. This means that I have gained a deep understanding as how to work with children who have learning difficulties and behavioural challenges. My work also requires me to have an employee wwcc and first aid certificate in an education and care setting. Upon request I am happy to share these with you. I have my license and can take kids to and from school/sport or any other activities. If I had your permission, I would love to take them to the zoo, park, bowling, etc to keep them entertained and happy. I completely understand if you would prefer to meet me before agreeing to any work and am happy to do so. I can’t wait to hear from you :)

Hey! My name is Nina, and I’m a bubbly, friendly first-year university student with over five years of babysitting experience. As the oldest of five much younger siblings, I naturally stepped into a caretaker role early on, which sparked my passion for working with children. I began babysitting for other families at 15, and since then, I’ve cared for kids of all ages, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s helping with homework, organising creative games, or simply being a supportive presence, I create a positive and engaging environment for every child in my care. I am certified in first aid, which gives me- and the families I work with peace of mind knowing that safety is always a top priority. I believe that imaginative play is essential for children’s development, so I love bringing creativity into our time together, from arts and crafts to make-believe adventures. understand the trust families place in their nannies, and I am committed to providing reliable, nurturing, and attentive care.

Hello families! My name is April, and I’m a friendly, reliable, and caring childcare educator, I’ve worked in Outside School Hours Care since early 2025, supporting children of different ages through before and after school care and holiday programs.

I also hold First Aid and CPR, a Working with Children Check, a National Police Check, and have my driver's licence and own car. I’d love to hear from you!

Greetings! I am Jae. I wear many hats, a Nanny being one of them. I love little people and they tend to like me; perhaps because I am naturally inclined to give them active attention and really listen to them. By trade I was a registered Chinese Medicine Practitioner (Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine) and massage therapist but changed gears and am now studying to be a kindergarten teacher. I love cooking/baking and have a work history in commercial kitchens. It gives me pleasure to feed vegetables to little people; even the ones who need invisible veges in order to achieve this with enjoyment! Before I was engaged in the health field, I was a visual artist (I studied at the VCA) and love being crafty with kids. I am not great at TV but I am good at play doH, painting, reading, playing and dancing. I have worked with Bec's Treehouse Artschool facilitating children's art and craft workshops and face-painting. I have cared for up to three children at once in private homes and have completed placement at two Brunswick kindergartens and a bush kindy with Eco Explorers in 2025. I love being with children on Country. I always clean up as I go and help with basic home chores like washing when possible but your child's safety and happiness is my first priority. I am comfortable caring for children and babes of all ages, from birth and beyond. I volunteer as a doula as I am generally passionate about the miracle of life and making the transition as peaceful as possible for Mum, bub and the whole family. I am very happy to care for siblings in a birth situation. I have also worked with children with complex needs and disabilites through Interchange Outer East. References available on request. I have a current Working with Children check. Thanks for listening!

Hi! I'm Sophie. I came to Melbourne just over a year ago from Edinburgh in Scotland (although originally from England). I practice a warm and dependable approach to childcare with over five years experience (nanny, daycare, babysitting), complemented by extensive family-based and volunteer work with children of various ages (ranging from 6 months to 12 years). For the past year, I have been working for two seperate families in Melbourne, as a nanny for their little ones (both 18m). I have worked with children from 6 months to 12 years, siblings and solo I have firm experience in bottles, bedtimes, nappy changes, new foods and other general routines. I love a museum trip, wandering through the park looking for interesting leaves, and generally I follow the playful inspiration of little ones as much as I can! I truly understand the importance of a compassionate and flexible approach to adapt to each child’s individual needs. Every family is different, and I am really keen to learn and grow in different settings; I have experience in maintaining communication with kindness, to create safe, caring, and engaging environments for children to grow into themselves. I am really looking forwards to meeting you and your family, having a good chat and seeing if I'd be a good fit :)

I'm a friendly, respectful individual. I've spent plenty of time around kids and am used to adjusting to a child's specific needs. I'm currently studying but looking to fill my free time doing a job that I know I will enjoy.

Hi! My name is Eloise, I’m 20 years old and currently studying at the University of Melbourne. I’m looking for casual or part-time babysitting work alongside my studies.

Hey, I'm Julia 29y and live in Brunswick. I moved from Germany to Melbourne 4 years ago and currently work as the German Educator in a bilingual childcare center. I studied in Germany where my focus was youth and residential care but I have been working in early childhood for the past 5 years. I have experience with children from 0-18 years and enjoy working with different age groups.

I have worked with children across a wide range of ages — from energetic school‑aged kids to younger children who need gentle guidance and routine — and I am passionate about creating safe, engaging, and nurturing environments where children feel supported and confident. I approach childcare with patience, clear communication, and a genuine enthusiasm for helping children grow. Over the past two years, I have provided professional babysitting for multiple families, caring for children with different personalities, needs, and energy levels. These roles have taught me how to remain calm and rational in high‑energy situations, how to multitask effectively, and how to build strong, trusting relationships with both children and parents. I have also worked as an English tutor for students in Years 7–9, which strengthened my ability to explain concepts clearly, support learning, and adapt to different communication styles. In addition to my babysitting experience, I have worked as a Learn to Swim instructor at Paul Sadler Swimland. This role helped me develop strong behavioural management skills, patience, and the ability to tailor activities to each child’s learning style. I also volunteered in retail at the Uniting Op Shop for over six months, where I learned to stay organised, communicate professionally, and contribute positively to a team environment. I bring a strong academic background and a commitment to personal growth. I received the inaugural SMC Reading Certificate for my involvement in the reading community, participated in writing competitions, completed a semester with Story Studios Australia, and was selected for a specialised Italian language program. I also represented my community soccer clubs for three years, winning two state championships through teamwork, discipline, and resilience. Across all my roles, I bring reliability, kindness, and a genuine love for working with children. I am eager to support a

Hi lovely families my name is Lila and I have over 9 years of experience caring for children from 5 months up until 16 years old. I’ll be commencing my studies for a Certificate 3 in Early Childhood start of next year. I currently hold certifications in First Aid and CPR in education and care setting, Working with Children Check, National Police Check, and NDIS Worker Screening Check, and I am fully vaccinated. I also have a valid driver’s license and an insured vehicle, making me flexible and dependable. I am passionate about creating safe, nurturing, and engaging spaces where children feel valued and inspired to grow. I’ve always had a deep love for caring for children. From a young age, I was drawn to looking after others because there’s something magical about the honesty, imagination, and playfulness that children bring into the world. What I find most rewarding is nurturing their growth, supporting their curiosity, and being someone who helps them feel safe and seen. Working with children has also taught me so much about patience, creativity, and staying present. Outside of work, I love cooking (I learned a lot from my stepdad who is a chef), practicing yoga, singing and playing my guitar, reading about philosophy and psychology, and taking my two kelpie dogs for long walks! I am truly passionate about childcare and committed to providing exceptional, reliable support for families. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, energy, and creativity to your household and help your children thrive. I’m available to start immediately ! Sincerely, Lila Rubbo-Ferraro

Hi there! I am a dedicated and energetic babysitter with hands-on experience caring for young children, particularly aged 3 months to 5 years old. I understand that early childhood is a time of big milestones and big emotions, and I pride myself on creating a calm, safe, and positive environment for children to grow and play.I am highly experienced in navigating daily routines and smooth transitions, such as moving from active outdoor play to structured group activities or wind-down naptime. I believe in gentle, patient behavior guidance—helping young children label their feelings, teaching them positive ways to express frustration, and encouraging good manners through fun and engagement.Whether we are playing in the backyard, reading books, or practicing sharing, your child’s safety, emotional well-being, and happiness are always my top priorities. I look forward to supporting your family and providing reliable, high-quality care!
