Hi, I’m Alice. I’m originally from England and have a background in childcare alongside previous professional experience as a GIS Analyst and environmental consultant. I currently work as an OSHC educator, supporting children with after-school routines, activities, and supervision. Prior to this, I worked as an au pair in Sydney, caring for three boys aged 6 to 14, and have built up over seven years of experience working with children in both seasonal and long-term roles. I’m confident caring for children of all ages and am experienced in managing daily routines, assisting with homework, and creating a safe, engaging environment. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, including cooking, tidying, and general organisation. I hold an Australian driver’s licence, a valid Working With Children Check, police check, paediatric first aid certificate, and a food safety handling certificate. I would describe myself as reliable, adaptable, and approachable. I am able to be calm and reassuring when needed, while also bringing energy and fun to activities depending on each child’s personality and needs.

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

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.

Hey there, I'm Hana. I'm 25 and I absolutely love working with kids of all ages. It's incredibly rewarding to see them learn and grow every step of the way. I'm a big fan of getting creative, and I'm always up for trying out fun art projects with the little ones. Plus, I'm all about healthy eating!

Parents can trust me to provide a nurturing and stimulating environment where their children can thrive, learn, and have fun. I'm also available for full-time nannying, so you can rely on me to provide consistent care and support for their little ones. Throughout my experience providing childcare services for several families, I have refined my skills in organising and caring for children, managing household tasks, assisting with homework, and even looking after pets. I had the privilege of nannying a delightful 3-year-old boy for a family over the course of a year. During this time, I closely followed his daily routine, providing early literacy and numerology activities, fostering gross motor skills development, has deepened my understanding of child development and provided me with opportunities to engage in outdoor activities and lead creative endeavours. I've also gained valuable experience working at The Cottage, an after-school care program at Glenmore Road Public School. My responsibilities included caring for young children, preparing meals, maintaining cleanliness, organising outdoor activities, and leading creative projects. Through this role, I've built a strong network of satisfied families who continue to entrust me with their childcare needs through ongoing babysitting arrangements. What sets me apart as a candidate for your family is not just my experience and skills, but also my genuine commitment to creating a nurturing and supportive environment for children to thrive in. I am reliable, responsible, and dedicated to ensuring the safety and well-being of the children under my care. Please contact me if you are interested and live in the Eastern Suburbs, Sydney.
