I’m an undergraduate university student at ANU currently studying a Bachelor of Arts but my dream is to later do a Masters of Teaching. I find teaching and caring the most rewarding experience. I’m from Melbourne, where I first started babysitting at 12 years old and babysat for families all through my schooling. I am used to families with many kids and pets. My experience looking after kids has also been broadened by coaching my local girls cricket team for the past few years, along with doing some tutoring. At the moment, I'm looking for casual babysitting work alongside my studies.

Hello! My name is Madeleine, and I am an 19-year-old student who has just moved back to Australia from the UK. I've just started at ANU! I have had a lot of experience in childcare, from my job as a Childcare Assistant at a before- and after-school club for 4- to 9-year-olds in the UK. I loved this job, thus why I am looking to continue my positive experience in Australia.

I'm an experienced caregiver who's supported Canberra families for the last 3 years, working with kids aged 2-12 — including neurodivergent children and those with additional needs. Whether it's the morning rush (waking them up, breakfast, getting dressed, out the door on time) or the afternoon stretch after school (homework, activities, keeping things calm until you're home), I'm there to support the routine and make things easier. I'm also a qualified swim teacher, comfortable running water play and teaching basic swim skills in home pools — a bonus for families who want more than someone watching from the side. Parents are often surprised at how naturally kids open up to me — I bring patience, consistency, and genuine presence.

Hi, I’m Sara! I’ve been a babysitter for the last few years, and am doing a Bachelor of Early Childhood and Primary Education. Previously, I worked as a gymnastics coach for 3 years, where I was responsible for 6-10 children aged 4-12 years. At this club, I’ve learnt how to interact and work with many different children, so would love to further develop my experience. I am currently working at a local childcare, mostly in the 12-24 month room, at the same centre in which I have volunteered at from June 2024 to December 2025. I currently have a Working with Vulnerable People’s card, and am First Aid and CPR qualified. These accreditations are kept up to date to ensure that those I work with are safe. If you have any questions or would like to book, feel free to reach out!
