Babysitters in Darlinghurst, NSW

Looking for any weekend/evening babysitting opportunities. I am enthusiastic, energetic and very keen to eventually pursue youth work at some point in my career. Having returned from working with children in Canada, I find it rewarding and meaningful and am looking for available childcare opportunities alongside my current full time position. I am 25 years old and gained considerable childcare experience from a gap year placement working overseas in England in a boarding house caring for 18 ten year old boys. I am the eldest of 10 cousins and have been looking after babies and young children since I was 12 as well as doing various babysitting jobs for local families over the years. Most recently, I returned from Canada where I was working in a role with X Movement. We worked across primary schools in the greater Toronto area facilitating in-school extra curricular programs with an emphasis on mental wellbeing through mindfulness, movement and mateship. I have completed a significant amount of community service working in a after school care in Beecroft and have qualifications from lifesaving Australia as well as my first aid certificate. I also coached a young netball team for 2 years in 2013/2014. I feel confident working with children of all ages and have a substantial amount of flexibility in the evenings as I am currently working from home.

Hi, I’m Sasha! I’m a warm, reliable and responsible childcare worker based in Darlinghurst. I have professional experience working with children as an OSHC Educator at Darlo Play Centre and previously spent several years teaching and assisting children at a dance school. I hold a current Working With Children Check and Police Check, with references available. I genuinely enjoy creating a safe, positive and engaging environment for children, whether that involves activities, play, homework, school routines or simply spending quality time together. I’m currently available for regular nannying, after-school care and casual babysitting, including evenings and weekends.

I have five years of experience babysitting for a family in the US, where I built a strong relationship with a little girl that is now 7 years old. I’m fun, energetic, and love engaging in playtime, creating activities, and keeping children active and happy throughout the day. I’m currently an au pair in Australia on a working holiday visa, caring for a one-year-old and a three-year-old boy. With a bit of free time in my schedule, I’m looking to make some extra cash while continuing to do something I enjoy—spending time with kids and exploring Australia along the way.

Hi everyone! My name is Analise, and I have over 9 and a half years of experience in early childhood education. I currently work full-time in a long day care and hold a Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care. I'm also in my fourth year of a Bachelor of Early Childhood Education (Birth–8 Years) at Curtin University. I'm passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn and thrive. My interests include nature play, Montessori-inspired learning, and supporting children's development through play. I also have experience as a children's sports coach, helping children build confidence, coordination, and teamwork while having fun.

In 2008 I came to Australia from Brazil to study English and Business at the Business College CBD and faculty of education and social work. 
 I am committed, polite and respectful of people's time and personal space. I'm punctual and always pay attention to different styles of parenting, as it helps me to be the best nanny I can be. I am passionate about the world of children and enjoy art, colouring, reading children's books and watching children's films. I have watched with a 36 month read one of Sesame Street’s story books in a rhythmic sing-song way. Children are highly inspirational; us adults can learn a lot by simply watching them play. I am able to cook and I love to cook great meals as soup heath snacks and nutritious meals. Ideally, I'm looking for a permanent position but will consider casual or part-time work. I have excellent references and will provide them upon request. Please feel free to contact me +61 448 326 975 Kind Regards Bella

Hi! I'm 25 and grew up in a big family - I helped raise my little brother from the time he was born (I was 11), so caring for kids is second nature to me. I'm a huge animal lover too, so pets are always welcome. I'm friendly, responsible, playful, and treat the children I look after like my own siblings. I've babysat on and off over the years, though this would be my first time in Australia. I have flexible free time and would love to help out.
