Nannies in Travancore, VIC

I’m Paula, I’m Colombian. When I spent time with my family I’m always the one who plays with the babies/children. I have 8 months of experience in caring for children and adolescents in Australia. I really like the children. I’m warm, energetic, and loving with them.

Hi Parents! I'm Joanna. Originally from the UK & have been living in Melbourne for 13 years. I absolutely love spending time with children, they bring me so much laughter & joy. I am friendly, patient and energetic. Left my corporate job in Sales 5.5 years ago, to pursue working with children. Worked as a full-time nanny since and never looked back! I would love to build relationships with parents & children and get to know each other on a long term basis 😊

I have expereinece with childrens in difrentes age, i like developing engaging and educational activities to stimulate children's imagination and cognitive development (plays, handicraft, explore new topics, nature enviroment, following routines), also, I am able to keep a calm, even in challenging situations, to effectively manage children's behavior. Committed to transparent communication with both children and parents, fostering trust and open dialogue. Adictionaly, i have demonstrated ability to prioritize tasks, manage time efficiently, and adapt to the dynamic needs of a household.

I have 3 years previous babysitting experience (references available), currently babysitting with another family,  but looking for a second job.  I also have WWC & Police Clearance. Despite being a male (!) I have great rapport with kids. I'm easy going, though at the same time, I'm very aware of manners, positive reinforcement and being a role model plus not treating them as kids (if that makes sense).  My responsible, nurturing and energetic personality has allowed me to build very strong and continuous relationships with past children that I have babysat. Never smoked/dont drink, interests are sport, taught Karate for 12 years, play tennis, pretty good cook & learning Japanese. I have very flexible roster x 7 days & available on short notice when needed.

Hi my name is Alice, and I am a current uni student at ACU studying nursing and residing at Newman College. I grew up on a farm in south-west Victoria and have lived there my whole life with my family of 6. I am the eldest of four kids, which meant i have had to do a lot of child minding growing up when our parents were away. I boarded at Ballarat Grammar for the most of my schooling, and participated in community service through volunteering to assist the prep-2 kids with after school sports ranging from football, netball, futsal, swimming and running. I am looking for a babysitting job and have had previous experience with both non-family and family members ranging in ages from 1-14 (all of which were casual). I am looking for any casual or full time work for children over 12 months old. I am an enthusiastic and trustworthy person and feel I would be greatly suited to any family. I also have my first aid certificate, CPR certificate, WWCC, VIC driver’s license (Ps), and am triple vaccinated against COVID. I look forward to meeting you and your family 😊

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! After working for a family for just over 3 years their little one is going to preschool in 2024. I now have an opening to join a new family and welcome interest from anyone looking for commitment, kindness, nurturing and success. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my whole life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old. 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 age. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress or anxiety is about the energy from the babysitter as well. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age babysitter can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I recently completed working with 3 children 5-6 days a week with their mother. Two children has special needs. In a short 8 months I was able to create new routines and boundaries that all three children, as well as both parents and four grandparents all had enormous benefits from and still implement these routines. I have a love relationship with this family. The mother is really eager to be a phone reference for me to share her experience with anyone who would like to consider employing me. I was a children's swimming coach when I was in my 30's and in the last 3 years also worked with children, as a club netball coach too. In the last 12 months I have been looking after two children under 5. I did this for free because I wanted to have a life with children aside and after two successful careers. Now that I am a child's book author, I want to be around them more. I learn from them while they are cared for by me. From breakfast through to dinner and bed time this year, I was able to develop an emotional bond with both children. We laugh a lot. I understand their behavior patterns as they grow through different stages. I've been an Aunt for nearly 20 years but they've grown up. I've been a guardian to my best friends children but they live interstate. I love getting to know each individual child and creating engagement with them and their particular interests. Sharing interests is a great start to building confidence within the child's self esteem. I want my life to also support young parents too. Being a parent can be a relentless experience when life throws up other challenges. I would be a great match with parents that have set routines and ethical structure for their children to learn within. I wouldn't be a good match for families that don't create boundaries to learn within and have structured routines to give them definition and security in their day. It's always going to be about the child and their daily development. They grow up so fast and each year has an impact on developing them into young adults. Additionally I live a very honest ethical life and hold strong to this personal philosophy. I have lived a life of integrity. I am extremely reliable and punctual as I understand leadership on many levels and the need to support people who are also learning in new areas in life and in their jobs. It has developed a deep level of understanding within me. I have my own car so collecting and driving to and from activities is a usual step for me. I just need children car seats to borrow for safety in travel etc. I am regularly available for Ad Hoc babysitting including weeknights and weekends.
