Meet Carly: A nanny and babysitter in Donnybrook, VIC

Hi families, my name is Carly and I am 32 years old and live in Donnybrook, Melbourne. I am a mum to a eight month old baby girl and am looking for a position that will suit you and I. My background is Early Childhood Care and Education. I have completed a Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care and hold a WWCC, First Aid and CPR. I have over two years experience as an educator, with children across all ages, prior to becoming a parent myself.

I am very passionate about working with children. While I believe children should be given choices, responsibilities and opportunities to initiate their own learning and play, after becoming a parent myself, I see the importance even more about providing children with a warm and safe environment to grow, as well as, following routines so that both you as the parents and I are providing the same structure to ensure children continue to feel safe and comfortable. I love being part of children's learning and development and watching them nourish to being the best version of themselves.

A little more about me, I was fortunate enough to travel a lot of the world in my 20’s. I met a lot of different people from different cultures and across different ages. I learnt so many things about their way of life and how the different cultures differed to our way of life in Australia. I am so thankful to have had these experiences because they are now experiences I can share with the children I teach, as well as, my own children. These experiences have also shaped who I am as a person, an educator, and now, a mum.

I am someone who loves being in the outdoors, I just love everything nature has to offer. I enjoy camping, fishing and spending time at the beach. I am also very grateful to be surrounded by my beautiful family and friends, who are incredibly supportive, who have also taken part in creating the person I am today. My family and friends, coupled with my experience around the world, have made me a more confident individual, who is independent, organised and responsible.

There is so much more I would be open to sharing. Please get in touch as I would love to hear about you and your family.
