This experience has equipped me with the skills and patience needed to ensure the well-being and development of your precious little ones. Reliability is at the core of my work ethic, and I take pride in being a dependable caregiver. As a nanny, I understand that parents often have busy lives, and I am here to assist you by taking some of the responsibilities off your plate, allowing you to focus on other important aspects of your life. In summary, I am a dedicated and experienced professional who is passionate about childcare and education. I bring a wealth of experience, multilingual skills, and a nurturing nature to create a safe and enriching environment for your children.

Hi, I’m Kerrie, 24, originally from Ireland, and recently moved to Melbourne.

I am fresh out of school with a lot of free time on my hands. I am a younger brother and thus always had to keep the younger children company at social gatherings, (who often were very young). Therefore, I have become quite good at keeping them entertained. Developing this skill, I have mainly learnt I have a natural caretaking ability, but most importantly that i enjoy taking care of people, making them laugh, and keeping them entertained, and this especially is the most fun to me around children.
