Hi, I’m Jazzy! I’m have experience working with little people of all ages. I have been babysitting for over 10 years, as well as nannying, au pairing overseas, running home-schooling for local families during lockdown, tutoring primary school-aged students in English and maths, as well as 7 years experience as a gymnastics coach for all ages (babies up to adults)! I have a degree in psychology and I’m very interested in the way young minds work, learn and grow. I’m a big fan of getting out in fresh air, arts and crafts, colouring and reading! Ideally I’d be working for a local family one or two day a week ongoing. Please reach out if you think I could be a good fit for your family!

Hi moms and dads, I'm Francesca, I'm 28 years old and I'm Italian. I would like to try to be a babysitter in Australia, having already had some experience with children in Italy. I worked for 6 years in a summer camp. My English is very basic, but I try to understand everything that is said to me and I try to make myself understood. I am a fun, reliable, tidy and loving person. I have the wwc and the first aid course. I would also like to do the police check. I can take care of the children and help with the housework. I can cook and if you want I can speak Italian with the children. I put any kind of availability because I am very flexible with hours and days of work. So we can organize together.

I am a single mother of a sixteen year old boy, myself. My alternate stream/(s) of income predominantly involve the instruction and assessment of swimming and water safety skills; first aid; resuscitation/CPR; lifesaving skills; advanced aquatic rescue techniques; and, self-defence. With the majority of those students, being children aged between six months and sixteen years of age. I additionally, also facilitate and run, professional development training courses alongside some Lifeguarding roles. Other relevant previous roles I've held, include being a Voluntary Children's Football/Soccer Coach; Volunteer Lifesaving Patroller, Training and Development Director and Mentor for Nippers and Teens for a Life Saving Club; a Children's Party Host; and have occasionally held science "fun lab" and Martial Arts demonstrations for school students at varying levels and certain community events. I am experienced and comfortable working with, and around children of all ages. Many of which, having had different cultural/religious/ethnical/economical/educational backgrounds, lifestyles and abilities. My experience also includes the successful provision of education/instruction, supervision and guidance of children with physical/medical/intellectual/psychosocial disabilities, learning difficulties, mental illness and those on different levels of the autism spectrum, and even overcoming (to a degree) language barriers over the years spent in the above roles striving to assist every child and their parents being able to set and focus on continuously working towards attaining their own, realistically achievable, short/long-term goals over time. I feel that it is important for children to experience the joy and sense of accomplishment, having actively put in the effort required to achieve each of these goals. I believe it is not only beneficial to the child physically/psychologically/mentally, but have also found it can provide their parents/caregivers with a little bit of comfort and more peace of mind, knowing that with every goal achieved - and the effort applied in doing so, carries with it, an expansion of their child's future potential, and opportunities that await them in years to come.

I'm Kayla, a 32-year-old nanny with 11 years of experience in bringing smiles, laughs, and love to three families. I’m super excited to be moving back to Melbourne (my home away from home) and am looking for a fantastic family to join and support. I am looking for a full time, ideally live out position, 4-5 days per week. For the past 7 years I have been a member of the Millar family, in Hamilton New Zealand, close to where I grew up. I have helped raise and care for 4 children originally aged 10, 9, 6 and 3 – one boy and three girls. This has been a varied position with structuring the youngest’s earlier years, while navigating the older children's time at school, managing the house including preparing daily meals, groceries, errands and additional support to other family businesses. All of my previous roles (as outlined on CV and covering letter) were full-time, live-out positions, and I pride myself on being organized, reliable, patient, and adaptable. I’m also pretty good at rolling with whatever parenting style works best for the family – if you’ve got a rhythm, I’ll be right there with you! Available start of August, could be sooner for the right role.

Hello parents/guardians! My name is Tahlia and I am super passionate about caring for children all ages and bringing a fun and educational environment for them!

I am fully committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for the children in my care. I’m also very fun when it needs to be fun time!

I believe children need to use their imaginations for as long as they can, it’s a crucial part in life as we grow up.

I have been working as a professional nanny for 25 years including six years in the United States. I decided to make nannying my career when working overseas as I found it both rewarding and enjoyable. I love working with children because they are unpredictable, fun and genuine. Everyday as a nanny is unique and it is my personal responsibility to make it as fun, informative and creative as possible. I have had a diverse range of jobs including sole-charge, working with a mum who is "in and out" and caring for children for up to four weeks whilst their parents have been holidaying or travelling for work. I have cared for families with 2 - 6 children with the ages ranging from newborns - 16 year. I believe the key to being a good nanny is providing a happy and safe environment for the children and having an open and honest relationship with the parents.
