Meet Stephanie: A nanny and babysitter in Melbourne, VIC

Hello! My name is Stephanie.

I am an Early Childhood Education student at Deakin University and am 22 years old. I currently live in a small apartment in the CBD with my husband and am experienced in cooking and homemaking.

I have extensive experience with young children, including: before/after school care (educator), babysitting, kid’s church (leader), school holiday camps (cabin leader), and placement from previous study of Nursing/Midwifery and Primary Education (both also at Deakin).

My greatest passion in life is being able to see children flourish and be cared for. As the middle child of eight siblings, I was exposed early to being responsible for those younger than me.

In the early years, I believe that children develop best through play-based learning. From my experience, I have realised the importance of fostering a strong sense of identity, well-being, communication skills, confidence, and connection and contribution to their world. Most of all, I ensure that the child feels loved and appreciated, and I sincerely understand that the parent is the most important figure in their child’s path in life; I am adept in respecting the parents’ way of care.

I have flexible availability, hold a current Working With Children Check and full drivers licence, and am willing to obtain a first aid certificate if necessary. I look forward to speaking with you and hope that I might be the right fit for your family.

Stephanie.
