Meet Olivia: A nanny and babysitter in Richmond, VIC

Hello! I’m Olivia, a university student currently studying a Bachelor of Commerce, majoring in Accounting and Finance. I grew up in South Australia and now live in Melbourne for my studies. I come from a close-knit family and, as one of three girls, family has always been a big part of my life.

I have several years of childcare experience across a wide range of ages. I began babysitting my younger cousins throughout my schooling, caring for children aged 6–8 and later 8–12. In my first year of university, I worked as a nanny for a two-year-old girl, where I managed nappy changes, nap routines, meal times, and daily activities such as painting, reading books, walks, and playtime at local parks.

More recently, before leaving for my overseas exchange, I nannied for a family with three girls aged 1, 3, and 5. My role included school and kinder pick-ups, preparing lunches, park outings, and supporting daily routines. I regularly handled nappy changes, bottle feeding and nap times for the one-year-old and also organised to take her to toddler playgroups at a local church while the older children were at school and kinder.

I love creating a fun, safe, and engaging environment for children, whether that’s through outdoor play, arts and crafts, reading, or imaginative games. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I always follow family routines and parenting preferences closely. I look forward to meeting your family and supporting your children’s growth in a caring and positive way.
