Hi Families,
I’m available for ad-hoc babysitting or care whenever you need support. Please feel free to reach out, I’d love to connect and see how I can assist your family.
About me:
My name is Tanya. I’m 41 years old, originally from Thailand, and I hold New Zealand citizenship. I’ve been living and working in Melbourne since 2009.
I have over a decade of experience in early childhood education, starting in 2011. I currently work casually in schools, including with children with special needs. When I’m available, I also enjoy working in hospitality and events, and I’m currently studying real estate as well.

Hospitality Experience (2001–2010)

• Maintaining a clean and organised home
• Coordinating with maintenance and other home services
Early Childhood Experience
With over 10 years of experience in early childhood education, I bring a strong understanding of child development, safety, and the importance of a nurturing and engaging environment. I have cared for children of all ages from infants to preschoolers, and tailor my approach to meet each child’s individual needs.
Key Skills & Experience
• Comprehensive Childcare: Providing nurturing, structured, and age-appropriate care
• Educational Engagement: Creating play-based learning experiences to support cognitive, social, and emotional growth
• Behavioural Guidance: Managing routines, setting boundaries, and encouraging positive behaviours
How This Supports Home Care
In a home setting, I draw on my professional experience to:
• Establish consistent routines that offer children a sense of stability and security
• Promote creativity, language development, and motor skills through engaging play and activities
• Maintain a hygienic, safe, and emotionally supportive environment
• Communicate openly with parents about their child’s development and any concerns
My Strengths
• Reliable, punctual, and adaptable
• Honest
• Detail-oriented and organised
• Strong work ethic and positive attitude
• Excellent customer service and respect for confidentiality

I look forward to the opportunity to support your family and help your children thrive in a safe, happy, and enriching environment.
