Nannies in Macleod, VIC

I genuinely love being around children — their energy, imagination, and honesty are things I deeply admire. Babysitting, for me, isn’t just about watching over a child; it’s about creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where they feel seen, heard, and cared for. Growing up, I was always the go-to person in my family and among friends when someone needed help with their kids. I found such joy in reading bedtime stories, helping with homework, or simply listening to the wild tales kids come up with. I believe that every moment spent with a child is an opportunity to support their growth, encourage creativity, and offer kindness. I take the responsibility of caring for someone’s child very seriously, and I approach it with a calm, patient, and compassionate attitude. Being able to offer peace of mind to a parent while giving their child a fun, loving, and safe experience means a great deal to me. I’d love the chance to support your family and be someone you can count on and trust.

Dedicated Grade 2 teacher at Oakleigh South Primary School with five years of valuable experience, eagerly seeking weekend, after-school, and school holiday opportunities. Enthusiastic about working with children, I bring a passion for education and a proven background in nurturing young minds. Currently residing in Malvern, I am excited about the prospect of contributing to the well-being of a loving family.
