Meet Abbey: A nanny and babysitter in Carlton North, VIC

My name is Abbey, I grew up in country NSW and currently work as a Registered Nurse. I am the oldest of three girls, and love have always had an interest in working with children.

I have worked with premature and newborn babies in my role as a RUSON (Registered Undergraduate Student of Nursing). I have learnt different skills from this position and handled many tasks including bottles/feeding regimes, nappy changes and nap routines.

My main family in which I have looked after were three girls aged from three, six and twelve. I looked after them occasionally in the morning where I would get them ready for school by helping them get dressed, make them breakfast, brush teeth and do the two younger girls hair, and the parents would take them to school. I mostly looked after them in the afternoon and Saturday mornings. In the afternoon, I would help them with their reading and other homework, make them dinner, participate in bath time and then get them ready for bed. I would also take them to the park if there was time. On Saturday mornings, I would mainly help the girls get ready for their weekend commitments. I would wake them up, make their breakfast, get them ready for ballet, netball etc. and ensure they had everything packed that was needed.

I love to take children out and about, and create fun activities for them to do! From going to the park or zoo, to having a babychino at a cafe, baking something at home or painting and craft.

I am excited to meet your family and the opportunity to become a part of your child/ren lives.
