Nannies in Thornbury, VIC

Aside from being a housewife and parent to my two boys (aged 10 and 13), I do a lot of volunteer work at their school. I　finished Certificate IV in School Based Education Support. However, I do still have some spare time while my kids are at school, and I would love to spend it helping other mums who are having a hard time. I am very caring, patient, friendly and energetic. I don't like the idea of kids using screens, especially when they are at a young age, and so I've learned to be very creative and flexible when playing with kids. I also love cooking and housework and I am very good at them!

Thanks for reading this. I've completed a Health Sciences degree, and also a Diploma in Community Services in June 2018 and since then I have had 7.5 years experience working at a not-for-profit organisation facilitating playgroups for families from newly arrived refugee and migrant backgrounds. Within this role I also completed case work and facilitated a homework program and children's holiday programs for primary school aged children. I additionally have a total of 5 years experience as a nanny across two families, one family with 3 children and another family with 2 children. I have 6 months experience as a Youth Worker (middle years) at a local council. I have a valid first aid certificate, working with children's check, police check, a full driver's license and a car. I prioritise safety and I really enjoy working with families and children of all ages. I have a passion for the health and wellbeing of children and have really enjoyed seeing children grow over time. I'd love to hear from you!

I am a responsible and caring individual with experience working with children aged 4 to 11 through my role as a Junior Miniroos soccer coach.

In addition to childcare, I am willing and able to assist with light household tasks and cooking, ensuring a supportive and well-organised home environment for both children and parents.

I am currently continuing my studies in Early Childhood Education and Care. I hold a Diploma in Health and Social Care, where I focused on Childhood Studies, Child Psychology and Working with Children and Young People. I have experience working with children of different ages and abilities, including those with autism and ADHD. I aim to create safe, fun and nurturing environments where every child feels comfortable, valued and free to explore. Whether I’m helping with homework, getting involved in creative play, preparing meals or supporting daily routines, I approach each day with a child-centred mindset.

Hi there! My name is Daina, I'm 26, and I'm currently completing my Master’s in Secondary Education, majoring in Visual Arts. I love all things creative, and it’s incredibly fulfilling to be studying my passion while preparing for a career where I can share the beauty and joy of artistic expression with young people! I currently work in Learning Support at a girls’ school in Northcote, where I’ve spent the past two years supporting a diverse range of learners, including students with additional needs.
