Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m an experienced nanny and babysitter with a background in childcare, support work, gymnastics coaching and swim teaching. I genuinely love working with children and creating a fun, safe and relaxed environment for them. I’m currently completing further studies to obtain my Masters in Clinical Psychology. 🎨 I love keeping kids entertained with activities such as drawing, games, baking, outdoor activities and crafts rather than relying on screens. 🚗 I have access to a car and am happy to help with school/activity drop-offs and pick-ups. 📚 Happy to help with homework, reading and schoolwork. 🍝 I’m also happy to prepare meals/snacks for the kids and help with light household tasks. 💛 I’d describe myself as warm, friendly, reliable and approachable, and I really value building a relationship with both the children I care for and their families. 📅 My schedule is flexible and I’m available for both regular and casual babysitting.

With nearly 15 years of childcare experience, I bring a calm, caring and reliable presence to every home I work in. I absolutely love kids - their curiosity, creativity, and laughter bring me so much joy and remind me daily why I’ve continued doing this for so long. Over the years, I’ve cared for children of all ages, from newborns to teens, twins and multiples, and I take pride in creating a safe, nurturing environment where they can learn, play, and feel supported. Whether it’s helping with schoolwork, coming up with fun activities, or keeping daily routines running smoothly, I genuinely enjoy being a part of each child’s growth and happiness. My goal is always to make parents feel confident and at ease, knowing their children are in patient, attentive, and loving hands.

Hi, I'm Sahasra, a 19-year-old second-year Business student at RMIT with a passion for working with children. I've always been drawn to working with kids and find it genuinely rewarding to be part of their lives, even in small ways. I've cared for children of family and friends, and during my final weeks of Year 12, I volunteered with Kinder to Year 1 students at my high school, where I played with them, helped them learn, joined in on activities, and assisted them whenever needed. That experience taught me a lot about understanding each child as an individual and adapting to how they're feeling in different situations. Even at family and friends' gatherings, I'm usually the one keeping an eye on the kids, since it's genuinely what I enjoy. Whether they're calm or full of energy, I'm comfortable managing either. I'd love to help look after your little ones, and I'll always keep you updated and adjust to whatever preferences or routines your family has.
