Meet Dannielle: A nanny and babysitter in Dakabin, QLD

Hi

My name is Dannielle (Elle) and I genuinely enjoy working with kids!

With extensive experience in Community Services, Child Protection, and as a former Team Leader in Disability Support, I’ve built strong skills in child safety, emotional support and behaviour management.

As a single mother who raised two amazing sons—now 28 and 20—I truly value the importance of patience, structure and a nurturing environment. Even now, they still need their mum from time to time and I believe it’s that kind of long-term care and connection that helps children feel safe, supported and confident to grow.

I’m responsible, trustworthy and a capable multitasker—able to manage homework support, creative play and daily routines with ease. I’m happy to tailor activities to your children’s interests while always keeping their well-being and safety at the centre.

I’m also more than happy to assist with light household tasks and can prepare healthy, balanced meals for the children as part of their regular routine. I know how much of a difference it can make having that reliable, extra support in a busy household.

I believe that open, two-way communication is essential in this kind of role. Being able to provide regular updates and openly discuss feedback or concerns helps build trust and ensures we stay in sync when it comes to your children’s needs. It’s important to me that you feel confident and connected to their day-to-day care.

I also recognise that every family is different and I genuinely enjoy adapting to a variety of family dynamics. I bring a lighthearted, positive sense of humour and a flexible, respectful attitude, which helps me fit in with all kinds of households—whether your style is structured or more relaxed. My focus is always on making sure your children feel comfortable, secure and understood.

Consistency, warmth and genuine care are vital in any child’s life—and I bring those qualities with me naturally, both from lived experience and professional roles where care has always come first.

I have a full driver’s licence, my own reliable vehicle, a valid Blue Card and a current, clear AFP police check.

I’m very flexible and happy to support your family’s routines in whatever way is most helpful.

I look forward to the opportunity to further discuss how I can contribute to your family.

I am confident in my ability to meet the needs of your family and I am available at your earliest convenience.

Warm regards

Dannielle
