Nannies in Gowanbrae, VIC

A bit about me. I am composer, vocalist, pianist and producer studying part time and enjoying looking after my 6 month old pup! I have love for nature and animals, as well as working with and caring for children of all ages. As a 34 year old, I have 15 years experience babysitting and nannying. I au paired in Berlin for two years, and have many references upon request! I like to bring joy, kindness, routine and wholesome interactions, limiting the use of screen time where possible and encouraging engagement in play, learning, relaxing and conversation, meeting each individual where they are at with gentleness and respect. Over the years I have stayed with the same families, and have watched incredible little humans become big grown ups! At this point in time, I am finding much more space for opening up to new families to begin the journey with again. 🙂

I am a 55 year old mother of 2 adult children, part time teacher and foster carer. As a foster carer, I have cared for children aged from newborn babies to teenagers.

I am available for overnight bookings if required and willing to travel with the right family. I have 8 years of experience as a nanny, caring for newborn babies up to 8 year olds.

I'm a happy, kind, open-minded, nature-loving person, that's me! I have experience as a babysitter, especially from taking care of my little brother from the day he was born until he turned 11. I cooked meals, picked him up from school, played with him, and helped with his homework. Many times, I also looked after him and his friends as we used to play together at the playground or enjoy sports. I love singing, playing the guitar or ukulele, and drawing beautiful nature scenes. To me, kids are wonderful little creators. I really enjoy playing with them, coming up with fun games, and watching how they express their ideas. With the experience I have, I can give parents peace of mind, knowing their children are safe, happy and free to be creative every time we are together!
