Hi families! My name is Eliza and I’m 19 years old. I’m currently in my second year of a Bachelor of Arts at Uni Melb, majoring in creative writing with a minor of media and communications, looking to progress into a master of education (early learning/primary) and have the amazing experience of living on residence at St Marys college. Currently I have a part time role caring for four beautiful kids. My role includes school drop offs, pick ups lunch packing, and cooking dinner/ nighttime routines. Spending time with these kids is what I most look forward to each week! I am very committed to providing a warm, nurturing environment for both of these kids to learn and grow and I am just so grateful to be given the opportunity to watch them do so. I have my license and a car and am very confident with driving kids around for necessary pick up and drop offs and I am more than capable in multitasking to create a suitable and fun environment for both kids as I am aware that needs and interests vary with age, hobby’s and personalities of each kid! I have experience caring for children ranging from 6 months to 14 years old, and am comfortable adapting to different sleep schedules for each child, nappy changes and bottle feeding. I am also quite a good English student (hence the creative writing major) as well as art, music. Humanities basic maths and science, and would love to help out with any homework if your child is of school age :). I have been fortunate enough to work casually with multiple families over the past few years caring for children ranging in ages and believe myself to have obtained a great ability to find and execute the best warm, encouraging environment for each different child.

I'm looking to engage with a new family and start working for you two days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. I would also be happy to teach them art too.
