I truely enjoy working with children as they are my passion and have been both a professional nanny and teacher for over 12 years. I’m currently looking after a 1 year old and 3 year old full time and have been with my current family for over 2 years. Before this, I worked as a sole charge nanny for two children under 5 for 2.5 years. Previous to this, I worked for 2 years as a nanny and travel nanny for a lovely family of 5. I have also lived in London working as a teacher and nanny (absolutely loved it).

Hi my name is Matilda, I value time outdoors in nature, making/viewing art, reading, sewing, photography and time spent with friends and family. I have a strong work ethic and am committed to providing the best quality care. I am a trustworthy, dependable, consistent, flexible and empathetic individual, who has good communication and interpersonal skills. I value my experiences babysitting and have always done my best to cater to each childs needs and support their development. In my experiences I worked alongside their parents to ensure I understood their routines and provided a supportive and stable environment. I have also been doing work as an NDIS disability support worker, helping my client to reach their goals and supporting them as they do so, this position requires patience, empathy and the ability to adapt. Also during my experiences in customer service I have enjoyed meeting new people from all walks of life. Working in and studying Conservation and Land Management is also a passion of mine, during which I have learnt important skills such as self-management, teamwork, problem-solving and adaptability/ flexibility. While I worked in environmental education and conservation, I was required to display a willingness to work in different environments, remain fit and healthy, keep updated with rules and regulations and work with diverse people. All of which I believe will help me be a great baby sitter.

Hi families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ 🌺 I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful independent 29 year old son. I have a positive, upbeat & engaging personality. I was a School Captain & have the ability to get along with all types of people. I have done some voluntary work for Single Family camps creating programs for children at these camps & I was responsible for keeping babies, toddlers & even teens occupied while giving Mum or Dad some much needed respite. This was a fantastic experience & I resided at these 5 day camps solely to help out with the other camp leaders.

In my last 12 years working as a Nanny I have cared for twins, multiple children (up to 8 at one time in total) & children with special needs such as autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, asthma, diabetes, eczema & other challenging health conditions.

I enjoy the spontaneous and honest interaction that children provide and I find it immensely rewarding knowing that I am able to influence and help a child to learn and grow confidently.
