Hello! I'm an experienced and loving nanny dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children. With 2 years of hands-on experience, I have a strong passion for child development and believe in fostering creativity, learning, and independence in every child I care for. I offer a range of services, including homework assistance, organizing engaging activities, and managing daily routines to ensure a healthy balance of fun and responsibility. My approach is patient, compassionate, and tailored to each child's individual needs and interests. Whether its playtime, outdoor adventures, or quiet moments of reading and bonding, I strive to create a positive and supportive environment where children feel loved and cared for. If you are looking for a reliable and friendly nanny who will become a trusted extension of your family, I'd love to connect and discuss how I can support your family's needs! Another fact about me is that I am an international student studying in University of Melbourne so I do not have a driver's license yet but am working towards it. Unfortunately a lot of the childcare certificates need a valid Australian driver's license hence I might be unqualified in that aspect. But I promise you, your child will be my first priority and I would do anything in my power to make sure they stay safe and sound. Thank You

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.

My name is Erika. I'm 36 years old. I am an illustrator, visual artist, and graphic designer. My background is in Mexico; I am funny, creative, happy, and active. I am also a fan of literature, cooking, and the arts. I love working with children. Back in Mexico, I was the Art director in charge of the children's Pavilion at the International Book Fair of Guadalajara. My work involved teaching art to kids and creating a suitable pavilion for them and their parents; my team and I made the Pavilion following standard safe procedures and incorporating creativity into it. I have worked as a nanny and have experience with different age groups. I have been working with children in Melbourne since 2022. I started with a family of two unique children (3 and 5 years old). I have been working with them for 3 years; I am still with them on Thursdays. You are more than welcome to contact me and ask for references. 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.

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! I currently look after a few families however my calendar has opened for a new family in 2025. I commit to long hour and long term commitment for the year with all of my families. It's important. Currently I cover ages 8 months, 12 months, 2.5 years, 4.5 years and 9 & 11 years olds. I understand the variety of changing developments in children and adapt to these needs. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my entire life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old and up until now as a professional nanny for parents who are doctors, solicitors, engineers, school teachers, marketing specialist and even a CEO. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with human development, of which I have covered extensively. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress and anxiety is about the energy from the nanny/babysitter. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age carer can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I follow routines and set boundaries, (initiated from the parents) for all children because it creates security and trust with them. I participate in both home and outdoor activities and excursions. I can drive my own car (petrol charges incur) or use any parents' cars. I cover household cleaning (light house work: all things kids mess, upkeep where possible in the laundry area, keep kitchen clean) to take the burden away from parents so they can come home to a cleaner environment than perhaps they left it. This is always discussed in detail for any family because I am not a 'house cleaner' I am a Nanny. I am extremely reliable and punctual to enable all parents to relax knowing I will always be there for them. I look forward to hearing from you. Nanny Clare

Hello, I’m a nanny and babysitter in North Fitzroy with more than a decade of experience in all aspects of childcare for every age, including live-in sole care. I've looked after three children, five fur-babies and one bird all at once and another time four brothers after-school… Currently I’m still chasing and being chased by kids as they head of to primary school after watching them grow up through the pandemic. Imaginative and role play are some of my favourite activities as well as any opportunity to draw, make art, learn and read stories. Some afternoons I’m watching kids swim and play basketball or just catching up quickly before they head to bed. I’m more than happy to clean, cook and fold washing - whatever needs doing. With some room in my timetable it would be lovely to meet and assist another family.
