Nannies in Oakleigh, VIC

Clear boundaries, and providing a positive and happy environment so children can thrive, are important factors to help a child reach their full potential. The child’s care always comes first. To watch a child grow and develop their own individual personalities is the most rewarding part of my nanny job. I have been a nanny for 15 plus years. I have worked locally and in Europe and Asia. I have worked with a variety of ages from 3 months to 16 years. I am looking for a full time nannying job. Please note, rate of pay is negotiable.

Hi, I’m Maja — a 20-year-old student at Monash University with a genuine love for children and years of hands-on experience. I’ve been babysitting for over five years, and growing up surrounded by younger siblings and cousins has given me a strong foundation in nurturing and caring for kids of all ages. Spending time with kids is something I genuinely enjoy — whether that’s heading outside for a walk or park visit, getting creative with crafts, or just being present for the everyday little moments. I try to make sure each child feels safe, comfortable, and free to be themselves. I believe in the importance of routine and structure, but I also know how vital it is to balance that with fun, learning, and genuine connection. I’m patient, dependable, and calm under pressure — but most importantly, I bring warmth and care into every home I’m welcomed into. Every family is unique, and I take pride in adapting to your individual needs — from mealtime preferences to daily rhythms and special routines. Happy to provide references upon request.

Some of the skills that make me a great fit for babysitting include patience, adaptability, excellent problem-solving abilities, and a genuine passion for helping children learn, grow, and have fun.

I have been casually babysitting for the past three years for a diverse number of families. I love all things creative like art, fashion, makeup and hair. I really enjoy taking care of and working with children as it is an incredible way to learn from younger generations and to build skills in organisation, communication and empathy.

Hi there! I am very excited about meeting and getting to know you. ABOUT ME: I have been providing childcare over the past 22 years, and I have looked after more than 50 children in this time. The last 9 of those years, I have been a Nanny. I have worked with many different families: with 1-4 children; twins with a younger sibling, all girls, all boys, brothers & sisters; with an age range of 9mths - 12 years old. As all children & families are different I like to stay adaptable, to meet the needs of the unique situation. Some children are runners, some are quite contemplators, others always need to be crafting and creating big cardboard constructions, while another is quite happy to sit while colouring in and drawing hrs on end. However they all ask questions non stop, lols. And I love that because of their curiosity, I too learn; from having to google answers to the questions I don’t have answers for, e.g. I now know the oldest living animal is the Greenland shark, and it is guessed to have a lifespan of 250-500 yrs. With the current oldest one guessed to be 300 years old! But I only learned this because one child I looked after LOVED the ocean and all its wonders. :) I find I lean towards the Montessori Method of teaching children. I follow the theme of their current interest for play, games and conversations, and I like to incorporate their current obsession, be it space or dinosaurs into our word & math games and everything else we do together. MORNING ROUTINE; breakfast, lunch boxes, school bag packing, day-care/kinder/school drop offs -For the little ones when at home and not at daycare/kindy. I like to have our week planned. Be it excursions to the zoo, park, an indoor play center, library time or classes that helps their development: that the parents have enrolled them into, or I have found that the Mum’s & Dad’s like; e.g. Gymbaroo, Ready steady go, All Sports etc., to activities we can do at the house like baking or painting or even a playdate with their friend/s. HOUSE MANAGEMENT; groceries, maintenance of pantry & basic medicine (ie expiry dates & organisation), light laundry duties, light house keeping, tiding up after myself & the little ones, keeping the kitchen clean & hygienic, school holiday & pupil free day planning, meal planning, food & meal prep (dietary requirements taken into consideration) multi-tasking and other Ad-Hoc tasks. AFTERNOON ROUTINE; networking with other parents & carers at the children’s school- that the children are friends with or do extra curriculum’s with, extracurricular coordination (this is where the networking can sometimes help with car pooling & swapping weeks), planning of play dates, supervise-assistance with homework and practice for their extra curriculum’s. With additional extras from me if wanted/needed or time permits (eg. Music theory, maths etc.) ***I have help children further develop their music skills with my attention and knowledge than what they get in 1 30min class a week. And I have helped with development of their Math & literacy skills. HOWEVER my proudest achievement was some how managing to help my French charge (when an AuPair in Paris) go from an almost F (from her former AuPair) in her French Class to an A. While I was only at a very basic beginner level with my own French skills. EVENING ROUTINE; Shower/bath time, dinner, oral hygiene, an evening game (if time permits) and attend their unique bedtime routine. HISTORY SUMMARY: •2002-2003 I started child caring when I was 14: for my piano teacher’s son. I cared for him 3 days a week, (after school) from the age of 2-8, while his mother worked from home: I had to master the skill of noise level control, while I was young & noisy myself. •2003-2005 Once I was 16 I began to babysit for other families during the evenings & weekends. •2006-2009 Durning my tertiary studies I babysat casually between my part-time job and classes. •2010-2015 I babysat and assisted as a mother's helper, whilst working 4 part-time jobs. •2016-2017 I was an AuPair in Paris. And fell in LOVE with France. •2017-2017 Back in Melb; I did causal & part-time child-care, for families with babies, toddlers & preschoolers. Until I found a family that needed a Full-time Nanny.

Let’s team up to create fun, safe, and memorable experiences for your little ones! Looking forward to meeting you soon!
