Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi, I'm Paige! I'm a mum with almost 20 years of experience as an Early Childhood Educator, including many years in leadership and management roles. Caring for children has always been my passion, and I've recently expanded my skills by qualifying as a sleep consultant to better support families. I'm calm, reliable, compassionate, and understand that every child and family is unique. As both a professional and a parent, I know how valuable it is to have someone you trust caring for your little ones. My goal is to provide families with practical support, reassurance, and the opportunity to get the rest they deserve.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi there 😊 Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I genuinely love spending time with children, and I've worked with all ages. From newborns to teenagers. I’ve had a lot of experience with babies and toddlers so I'm very comfortable and confident with feeding, bathing, changing, and bedtime routines. My style is warm hearted, kind, patient, nurturing and loving. I practice meditation and mindfulness which flows through to my work and allows me to maintain peace and calm when faced with challenges. I am encouraging and enthusiastic with children, which allows them to blossom and shine in their own unique ways. I also love working with neurodivergent people and am currently working part time as a disability support worker with my own ABN and insurance. I love being outdoors and an average day with me usually includes a walk to the local park, nature reserve, cafe, or at the very least a run around the backyard. I also enjoy outings to the Collingwood Children's Farm, Scienceworks, the Museum, the local Library and many more adventures when time permits. I've worked as an au pair in France, a volunteer teacher in Nepal, and a nanny and babysitter in Melbourne for over 10 years. I have a reliable car, I'm willing to travel and I can provide references. I've also had a lot of last minute bookings so I'm very comfortable just jumping in with families I'm meeting for the first time! Thank you, I look forward to hearing from you and wish you all the best in finding that perfect nanny or babysitter to suit your family.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi there! I am a trustworthy and proactive caregiver looking to help local Melbourne families with their childcare needs. Whether it is managing after-school routines, helping with homework, or organizing creative activities, my focus is always on keeping your children safe and happy. Please note that while I do not hold a physical Working with Children Check card just yet, I am 100% eligible and ready to lodge the application immediately. I am looking for a family or centre open to covering the upfront lodgement fee to be reimbursed from my first paycheck. Because Victorian law allows staff to start working as soon as an application is lodged, I can begin helping your family right away without any delays.
