Looking for: Full-time, Casual Babysitting, Au pair, Au Pair

Hi Families,

My name is Tanya. I’m 41 years old, originally from Thailand, and hold New Zealand citizenship. I have been living and working in Melbourne since 2009. I am currently looking for the right family to work with on a long-term basis. I’m happy to begin with a short trial period, as I understand that every family has different needs and expectations.

Work History Overview

• Current: A Prep Teacher Assistant across various primary schools in Melbourne.

• Mid 2024 – Feb 2025: Full-time nanny/housekeeper in a private residence

• 2011 – Mid 2024: Lead/Diploma-qualified educator in private, community, and council early learning centres across Melbourne

• 2007 – 2008: Hospitality staff on Hamilton Island and casual babysitter

• 2000 – 2001: Casual babysitter while living in New Zealand

Hospitality Experience (2001–2010)

I also have a strong background in over 10 years in hospitality, including fine dining, event and conferences, airline lounges and hotel VIP lounges.

Household Management

I am confident in supporting families with a range of household tasks, including:

• Running errands as needed

• Assisting with laundry, dishes, and light meal preparation

• 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

• Open-minded and a respectful listener

• Natural problem-solver with a good sense of humour

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

Warm regards,

Tanya
