Meet Beth: A nanny and babysitter in Randwick, NSW

Im from Edinburgh, Scotland on a working holiday visas with several experiences working with children from 12 weeks-12 years old, my previous jobs are listed below:

Creché- i worked in a leisure centre in the creché department with children aged 12weeks-3 years old. My day involved free play, reading time, nappy changes, bottle feedings and following nap routines that would be discussed with parents. Between 3 of us, we would care for 12 infants at a time, it was a job that i still truly cherish even years after leaving the company.

Mummy and me classes- i guided a class designed for mums with newborns/infants aged up to 1 years of age. The class would explore the childs senses in different activities that i would create a planner for weekly.

Kids club- the classed ranged from 3-4, 7-9 and 8-11 years of age. Each age range would have different activities and goals that myself and other colleagues would create daily/weekly plans for depending on the class at hand. This would be classes sich ad sports, dance, yoga, free play, party games and scooter squad classes.

Babysitting- i ventured into babysitting the children that would attend all of the classes from my previous jobs above, i gained great, professional relationships with parents and was known in the club as a trusted staff member who they can rely on both inside and outside of the leisure centre.

Camp america- i worked at a summer camp in pennsylvania in 2024 as a counsellor and dance teacher. I would stay in the bunk with 24, 14 year old campers alongside 4 other camp counsellors. Dance holds a special place in my heart and has since i was 3 years old so this was just a massive bonus to the job. As a counsellor my responsibilities included being on night duties by myself to ensure campers are safe throughout the night, getting them up in the mornings to do our chores for the day, get dressed and down to breakfast on time everyday for 12 weeks. I created a beautiful bond with my campers and wish i could go back in a heartbeat to see how much they have grown up in the last year and a half.
