Brighton East

Updated: 17 Mar 26

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

My name is Summer, and I’m based in Brighton East. I’ve been caring for children aged 0-12 for over three years now, and I truly love what I do! I’m currently taking a year off Uni to focus on nannying, so I have plenty of availability and a super flexible schedule—I’m happy to help whenever you need. I absolutely adore spending time with kids, whether it’s playing fun games, helping with bedtime routines, or lending a hand around the house. I always try to create a warm and caring environment while building special connections with the families I work with. Right now, I nanny for a lovely family with three little ones (2, 5, and 7) every Wednesday 730am-530pm, and I’d love to welcome another family into my schedule! I have a car, a valid Working with Children Check (WWCC), and first aid certification (including CPR) with a focus on young children. I’m fully vaccinated (including COVID), a non-smoker, and happy to provide references if needed. I’d love to chat and see if I’d be a great fit for your family—looking forward to meeting you! 💛

Updated: 17 Mar 26

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

My name is Emma, and babysitting has been a significant side gig for me since I was 14. I have also worked as a lifeguard and consistently volunteered at the youth theatre program back home in Townsville. With kids, I am bubbly and fun, always willing to get dirty with them, play dress-up, or help with homework. My background is in safety, and I make it my top priority because I believe you cannot have fun unless you’re doing it safely. I have access to my own car, where a car seat can be installed, and I am confident and comfortable using the Melbourne public transport system. I am also happy to walk to parks, schools, or other activities if and when required.

Updated: 17 Mar 26

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello parents, My name is Tracey, I'm vibrant, energetic and also calm and have a lifelong passion for working with children. From an early age, I discovered my love for caring for babies, toddlers, and young kids at 13 in my hometown of Castlemaine. In my 20s and 30's, I worked in childcare centres before transitioning into a career as a professional musician, alongside raising two wonderful sons who are now 28 and 20. Over the years, I’ve remained deeply involved in caregiving, helping raise my nieces, babysitting for families, and working in aged care as a diversional therapist and a disability support worker. For the past few years, I have been a regular carer for three children under the age of six, further strengthening my hands-on experience, I have also recently nannied and cared for a family with teenage children. I strive to create a nurturing, fun, and structured environment where children feel safe, supported, and engaged. I believe in the importance of routine, ensuring children are well-rested and happy. I love incorporating creativity and learning into daily activities, whether through reading, music, arts and crafts, puzzles, or imaginative play and love being silly! With my background in music, I enjoy singing lullabies, teaching songs, and use music as a calming tool. I also have a strong focus on health and well-being and love cooking, I come from an Italian background and it would probably be my speciality, however, I can mostly cook anything you require. Light household duties are absolutely fine, as I work best in a clean and organised space. I'm also an animal lover, nature lover and gardener. I would love to find a family where I feel welcome and can make a positive impact in your children’s lives. If you’re looking for a responsible, engaging, experienced mother and caring babysitter, I’d be delighted to chat further. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! Warm regards, Tracey

Hi! My name's Anna I'm in my third year in University. I'm studying to become a child psychologist, so I am very motivated to get to know every child.

In saying this, I am very organised, have time management skills and can cook and clean. I love playing the piano, flute and guitar and have a pet dog, so I can care for your pets too.
