Babysitters in Balmain, NSW

I’m a Mum who has raised a profoundly gifted child. I’ve handled just about everything, from a sensitive newborn, a toddler craving stimulus, a primary schooler interested in space to an 18 year old, resistent to boundaries. I am also the aunt of twins. Nothing much fazes me. I babysit as I miss being with babies and kids. I’m happy to casually babysit, nights and weekends or run your home like clockwork. I know how hard it is to parent, work and juggle busy family lives so I’m here to support and help. I have WWC and police checks! I'm epi-pen trained (self carry), can manage food allergies and arrive with a craft bag, ready to create! I'm happy to cook and do light cleaning. I have done academic study around how children develop visual literacy, centered around Reggio Emilia Philosophy and how children learning via play. Happy to answer any questions! I am available for short term placement whilst you find the full time nanny.

Hi! My name is Mariëlle, 28 and I am from The Netherlands. I am doing a course in community services. I am looking for a Nanny job on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays as well as casual babysitting. I have multiple years of experience with children. I have been an au pair, a nanny and am also a certified early childhood educator. I have two diplomas. One from The Netherlands and one from Australia.

Hi! I’m Kiara, I’m 17 and the proud (and very patient) big sister to four wild brothers, so trust me, I’ve seen it all. I’m currently studying Community Services online to work in child protection because helping kids is genuinely my passion. I’ve done paid babysitting for a family friend and loved every second of it. I’m fun, responsible, and pretty much a professional snack negotiator. Whether your little ones need someone to keep up with their energy or calm things down for bedtime, I’ve got it covered. Your kids are safe, happy, and entertained with me!

I'm a caring, happy, friendly nurturing person, with the experience in full time work childcare which I enjoyed throughly. I am currently a Nanny to a 19 month old boy with a beautiful family who would be more than happy to send you references to give you a bit more piece of mind. I also have the experience in creating fun and educating activities in crafts, music and physical activity for children throughout the day.

I am a willing, dedicated and caring person who has been working with children from the ages 0-12 for 22 years now. I also have two daughters, ages 15 and 11 years old. I am currently taking some time off after leaving my role as a Director in an early childhood setting where I worked for 8 years. I hold my Diploma in Early Childhood Education and my degree in Early Childhood teaching. I have had an extensive amount of training and experience with children and essential things in relation to caring for them such as child protection, children's health and safety, food handling, educational programs, behaviour management, special needs and inclusion and other fun ones such as cooking or art. I am a non-smoker and animal lover! I have my current first aid, asthma and anaphylaxis training and a current NSW drivers licence and my own car (automatic). I have been babysitting for as long as I have been working with children, with many children and families that I have worked closely to over the years. I believe in children learning fundamentally through play and experience and can say I am very eager and experienced in teaching this to children. I form close and loving bonds with all children that I work with and love to instill in them what I know and have learnt.

Hi, I'm Mieke. I'm starting my second year of uni this year and I absolutely love looking after kids. I've been babysitting for local families since I was 14, after years of minding my five little cousins. I'm a huge animal lover - I foster litters of kittens year round, and I currently teach Animal Care to young people with intellectual disabilities. I'm more than happy to help with cooking, cleaning, or homework, and I have a WWCC. In my spare time, I dance ballet, go bouldering, or knit. I look forward to meeting you :)

My Mum would describe me as a kind, compassionate, and dependable individual with a natural ability to connect with children! My dedication to creating a safe and nurturing environment allows children to feel comfortable and supported. Motivated by a genuine desire to make a positive impact, I approach babysitting with enthusiasm, ensuring that children are not only cared for but also engaged in fun and educational activities. I am available casually on a Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Clementine
