Meet Rebecca: A nanny and babysitter in Coogee, NSW

My name is Rebecca, and I am a Physical Education and Language teacher from Ireland with over seven years of secondary school teaching experience. I hold a Bachelor of Education in Sports Studies and Physical Education degree from University College Cork, where I graduated with first-class honours and received two academic scholarships: Quercus College Scholarship and the Keliher Scholarship.

Working with children has always been at the heart of my career. As a teacher, I have had the privilege of supporting students’ academic, social, and emotional development through engaging and active learning experiences. I have worked in numerous residential camps that catered for ages 3-18 years. Beyond the classroom, I am also an aunt to two lovely nieces, aged six months and three years. Spending time with them has given me first-hand experience in creating a fun, nurturing, and safe environment where children can thrive and grow.

In addition to my teaching background, I hold certifications in First Aid and Lifeguarding, and I have extensive experience supervising children in both educational and recreational settings. I pride myself on being caring, reliable, and energetic, and I am passionate about supporting children’s wellbeing through play, creativity, and positive guidance.

I am currently teaching in a school in Sydney until 2pm Mon-Fri. I am looking to pick up babysitting in the evenings or over the Christmas break. I would love the opportunity to connect and support your family, bringing the same enthusiasm and care that I bring to my students every day.
