Other Skills

I am an avid cook and I love to clean, I will happily handle endless loads of laundry, and will look after your home with the same respect and attentiveness as I would my own. I was a boys basketball coach for a few years, and love watching and playing sports, and will happily spend hours kicking the footy around. As a creative individual, and a writer, I can entertain endlessly, whether it be arts and crafts, games, or storytelling. I also am an excellent negotiator, from eating vegetables, to homework, to bed times, and most importantly, to the occasional (or frequent) sibling fallout.

Looking for: Full-time, Part-time, Casual Babysitting

I am a Film and TV freelancer and recent masters graduate who loves kids and the joy they bring! The last time I was on this website, I met a lovely family and worked with them until the kids went on to high school (including doing homeschooling during COVID), so I am very excited to meet and support another family. I'm a responsible, friendly, and trustworthy, looking to find temporary work for the next few months, with the potential of extending. As a child of a single mother, I know how hard parents work and how much they give up for their children, and I'm looking to help out with whatever your family might need, while also providing a happy, active, and stable environment for those in my care. I am flexible and will work according to your needs, and am open to the full range of babysitting duties, from adventures on school holidays, to watching footy training from the sidelines, to overnight stays for those working nights, like my mum did! I am willing to work with children of all ages, and can assure you that no matter the child, the type of babysitting you are after, or any unforeseen events that inevitably arise, I am capable of adapting, and acting accordingly, with the safety, wellbeing, and happiness of your child being my top priority. Plus, kids are just really really fun, and it is such a pleasure to be let into their worlds.
