Hi all, I am Alice. Originally from England, I recently moved back to Sydney after au pairing here throughout 2025, caring for three boys aged 6 to 14. I’ve worked with children for the past seven years in both seasonal and full-time roles and I am confident in caring for children ages 2-17. I’m experienced in helping with homework and daily routines, as well as assisting with household tasks and cooking. I hold an Australian driver’s licence and a valid Working with Children Check. I am confident, fun, reliable and able to be calm and reassuring or energetic and engaging, depending on each child’s needs.

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.

Bonjour! My name is Océane, I'm 29 and I'm from France 🇫🇷 I am currently a nanny for a 11 month old lovely baby boy 4 days a week in Chatswood (I know him since his 3 month old) and for a 2 year old lovely girl once a week in Alexandria. I will be available all day on Wednesdays and for occasional afternoon, evening or weekend babysitting. I am going to start studying Early Childhood Éducation and Care in July 2026 and I am so excited about that! I was a nanny in Wellington, NZ for 1 year and work for some wonderful families! I was looking after an adorable 1 year old girl 3 days a week and a 2 and half year old boy the other 2 days of the week. Occasionally, I was looking after his little sister who was born in December 2024 and whom I have been watching develop since she was born. I was also a nanny for a 1 year old boy last year in full time. I have also done occasional and regular babysitting for children aged 6 month to 9 during weekends and evenings. I was an au pair in the United States for a year and a half. My first year was in Seattle, WA, where I looked after 3 children aged 5 months, 2 and a half years and 6 and a half years when I arrived. I then spent 6 months with another family in New York, where I looked after a little girl who was 7 months old when I arrived. It was an extraordinary experience and I learnt a lot! I did a lot of baby-sitting while I was studying. I've also babysat for several families with children of all ages, from 5 months to 12 years. I've always loved children and sharing time and activities with them. Looking forward to hear from you, A bientôt 😊

Hi! My name is Edda, I’m 20 years old, and I would love to help your family with babysitting. I have plenty of experience working with children, as I’ve been an au pair for a family with two lovely kids, aged 2 and 6.

I also helped around the house, cooked dinner, and took on a big-sister role within the family. In addition, I’ve worked full-time in a kindergarten, supporting children’s development and helping them feel secure even without their parents present. I genuinely love being around children and have always been surrounded by them. I’m looking for a part-time role, mainly afternoons and evenings, as I also work as a retail sales assistant 3–4 times a week. I’m fluent in English and would love to bring care, energy, and enthusiasm to your family.

I am a psychology graduate with a genuine love for working with children and supporting their learning, wellbeing, and development. As captain of my football team, I developed strong leadership, communication, and teamwork skills, which I enjoy using in a positive and encouraging way with young people. Volunteering in Costa Rica gave me the opportunity to work closely with children in school settings and helped me gain an appreciation for different cultures and family values. After the George Floyd movement, I ran 100km in 10 days to raise funds for The Black Curriculum, strengthening my commitment to inclusivity and to helping children feel valued, supported, and confident in themselves. This is an attitude I bring into my work, helping to create a positive environment where children can flourish while also being a positive role model. Over the past year, I have worked as a teaching aide in a school in London, supporting children in their day-to-day learning and development.
