Nannies in Heidelberg West, VIC

Hello there! My name is Merlyn, and I am a qualified Early Childhood Educator with five years of experience. I currently work casually at a childcare centre in Kew and completed my Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care at Box Hill Institute in 2021. I have cared for children from 6 months through to 12 years of age, supporting families with everything from playtime and fun activities to bedtime routines, homework, and general care. My background in early childhood education has given me strong skills in adapting to each child’s individual needs while ensuring they feel safe, happy, and supported. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, and easygoing. I genuinely love working with children and feel privileged to be part of their learning and growth. I am available full-time, including weekdays, evenings, and weekends, and can be flexible to suit your family’s needs, even while working casually at a childcare centre on Mondays and Tuesdays. I particularly enjoy part-time roles with longer hours, as this allows me to build stronger connections with children and provide consistent support for families. If you are looking for a caring, dependable babysitter to support your family, I’d love to connect. While I don’t have parent references available, I am happy to provide professional references.

Hi! I’m Jamii, a graphic design student with a creative spirit and a genuine love for working with kids. I’m currently studying design and looking for some extra work as a nanny. I’m a reliable, caring, and imaginative person who loves bringing creativity into everyday moments, whether that’s making art together, coming up with fun games, or helping with homework in engaging ways. I really enjoy creating a warm, positive environment where kids can play, learn, and express themselves freely. With my mix of creativity, enthusiasm, and responsibility, I always do my best to make sure the kids I care for feel safe, supported, and inspired.

I'm an energetic, responsible, and easygoing person who has always loved spending time with children. I currently work part-time as a Paediatric Nurse, typically doing around four shifts per week, and I’m looking to take on some casual babysitting during my days off. Before starting my nursing career, I worked as a part-time nanny for over four years. During that time, I cared for children aged from 6 weeks to 6 years, including twins and multiple siblings. I also have 12 months of experience working in a crèche, further strengthening my ability to support children in a safe, nurturing environment. Thanks to my nursing roster being set about two months in advance, I’m able to plan and commit to babysitting shifts ahead of time. I’d love the opportunity to help out your family. I hope to hear from you soon!

Hello! My name is Lisa, and I am currently pursuing a Master’s Degree in Cybersecurity.I am a compassionate and responsible caregiver with personal experience caring for my niece from birth to age three, supporting my sister through every stage of her early development. From feeding, bottle sterilisation, and nap routines to playful engagement and comfort, I have hands-on knowledge of infant and toddler care. I understand how difficult it can be for parents to leave their baby with someone new, which is why I treat every child as my own—precious and God-sent. Families can trust my patience, reliability, and nurturing nature. I am also willing to obtain a Working with Children Check (WWCC).

Hi! I'm currently studying a double degree in Nursing and Business. I'm energetic, kind, and responsible, and I absolutely love working with children.

I hold a valid Working With Children Check, First Aid and CPR certification, and a police check. I enjoy being active and creative, especially through sports, cooking, baking, and crafts. I'm committed to creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for kids, and I’d love the opportunity to support your family!

I have been working as a professional nanny for 25 years including six years in the United States. I decided to make nannying my career when working overseas as I found it both rewarding and enjoyable. I love working with children because they are unpredictable, fun and genuine. Everyday as a nanny is unique and it is my personal responsibility to make it as fun, informative and creative as possible. I have had a diverse range of jobs including sole-charge, working with a mum who is "in and out" and caring for children for up to four weeks whilst their parents have been holidaying or travelling for work. I have cared for families with 2 - 6 children with the ages ranging from newborns - 16 year. I believe the key to being a good nanny is providing a happy and safe environment for the children and having an open and honest relationship with the parents.

Hello there! I'm currently seeking a part-time or casual nanny position after the family I’ve been working with moved out of town. I have over a decade of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, and I’ve formed long-term, trusting relationships with the families I’ve worked with. I frequently step in as auntie for close friends and family, and have a step-daughter of my own too. I also work as a kids’ party, workshop and play space facilitator, fuelling my passion for supporting self-expression, learning, empowerment and play. In other words, I love kid's and am very experienced in caring for all ages. Prior studies in yoga and eastern philosophies, and my current focus on counselling and psychology, along with personal experience navigating my own mental health and neurodiversity, have contributed greatly to my ability to attune to and communicate well with children. I have a high capacity for providing emotional support, practicing non-violent communication and staying calm and regulated in stressful situations. My priority is to foster a mutually safe, trusting relationship with children and their families, and to nurture emotional regulation and connection, ensuring children feel seen, heard, and respected, aligning with familial values and being a positive role-model. I bring a playful and creative spirit with a love for exploration, adventures as well as cozy and fun times at home. I enjoy cooking, baking, making music, arts and crafts, and exploring nature, museums, playgrounds, libraries, galleries parks and whatever else the day takes us. I'm confident with planning activities, inspiring play and coming up with ideas that encourage joy and learning. I'm also a big fan of child-lead play and enjoy discovering and nurturing whatever sparks the child's interest and enthusiasm, and I find it very rewarding being a part of nurturing a child's interests and talent. I’m very happy to assist with daily tasks like morning and bedtime routines, school drop-offs, errands, meal prep, homework, laundry and general household upkeep. Grossed out by the head lice your kid kindly bought home from daycare? I've got you covered! I'm very aware of the stress and chaos that can come with juggling work, home and personal life while raising little ones , and take great joy in being able to support families to survive and to help children thrive. Being invited into a child's life to nurture their wellbeing and help them to grow, learn, and enjoy their world is a privilege and a joy, and I look forward to continuing to be a positive, supportive and inspiring presence for the next little human and their family. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile and feel free to get in touch with any questions or to arrange a conversation if we sound like a good fit :)
