Babysitters in Greater Newcastle, NSW

Mothercraft/Maternity Nurse - years of experience with babies & children! I am a registered Tresillian Mothercraft Nurse - trained in 1980 & also did the Parentcraft Certificate through Karitane in 2007. Over MANY years I've had countless Mothercraft jobs specialising in helping families with babies to sort out issues around feeding (breast feeding, weaning etc), sleep & settling. I have worked as a live-out nanny for MANY families & have also done many 24/7 live-in temp jobs filling in for parents who travel for work. The age range of children in these jobs has been 0 - 18 years. At one stage I also worked in a day care setting - in the nursery. I am mum to 3 - now adult sons. I have recently located to Newcastle from regional NSW. I love being close to nature - so when Im not working - you'll generally find me out in the garden or out walking wherever nature is!

I am a confident, outgoing and compassionate 20-year-old with extensive experience supporting children, young people and individuals of all ages with diverse abilities and support needs. I currently work as a School Learning Support Officer (SLSO) in a high school while studying paramedicine online, with plans to pursue a secondary English teaching degree. I absolutely love working with children and take pride in creating a safe, fun, supportive and nurturing environment where everyone feels valued and included. I am energetic, patient, caring and reliable, and I always give 100% to everything I do. I love the beach, sports, outdoor adventures and trying new activities. Family and friends mean the world to me, and I enjoy music, playing instruments, arts and crafts, cooking and finding creative ways to keep children entertained. My positive personality, calm nature and genuine passion for helping others allow me to build meaningful connections with people of all ages and abilities.

Hi! I’m Eve, I’m 23, a student in psychology and I have been working with kids for the past 5 years or so. I started working in churches at kids clubs then babysitting for those kids out of church. I moved to Sydney 2021 for uni and started teaching singing privately then working in after school care. At the moment, im looking for a new casual babysitting position to work along side with my uni and main job doing support work. Willing to work with you and what your family needs. I have plenty of experience with children from the ages of 6months-13 years. I also most recently worked shortly with two young boys. I also have experience with kids who have autism and ADHD. I love working with kids of all ages, mostly school aged kids but I’ve worked with baby’s/toddlers and younger children lots as well. I have about 4 years or so’s experience in house keeping and general upkeep so I’m happy to help out around the house too! I’m studying psychology so I’d like to say I’m pretty good at helping kids navigate big emotions and develop skills that will help them later on in life; helps that it’s my greatest passion too. I do also offer music lessons (specifically vocals as I’m a classically trained singer) so I love any opportunity to involve the kids in music. Hope to hear from you!

Hi. I’m Nikola. I’m looking for a job like a nanny. I have my own car so school drop-offs and pick-ups wouldn’t be a problem. I worked like a nanny for my friend here in Australia and for some back at home. I am available at any time. I love kids and pets. One day I would love to open my own small daycare.

I am a warm, gentle and caring 17-year-old who genuinely loves spending time with children and creating a happy, safe and welcoming environment for them. I have babysitting experience with two families, caring for young children and helping with playtime, meals, routines and bedtime. I also have healthcare experience through my school-based traineeship at John Hunter Hospital, where I assist in the NICU, and I hold First Aid and CPR qualifications. Growing up with two younger siblings with autism and ADHD has taught me patience, understanding and kindness. I’m reliable, nurturing and would love to become a trusted and caring person for your family.

Hi! My name is Mary-Jane (aka 'Mary Poppins' to my many families!) I'm a mature but very young at heart, caring, well-educated, fit and healthy nanny/babysitter with a lifetime of experience in child-care. I have my own large family with 6 children and 7 grand-kiddies. Now retired from my professional life, I'm looking for casual day and night time babysitting. I have lots of love and attention for your little ones and will provide a safe and nurturing environment while they're in my care. I also have a love of assisting their learning and creativity through reading, music, craft and outdoor adventures. I have a current WWC check, a federal police check, senior first aid, CPR, anaphylaxis and car licence. Most importantly I have lots of lovely parents who will provide glowing testimonials for me. If you think I might meet your childcare requirements ....let's chat.🙂 Thank you!

I am a responsible, caring, and trustworthy individual who enjoys spending time with children and creating a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them. I am patient, reliable, and confident assisting with daily routines, playtime activities, homework support, meal preparation, and bedtime routines. While studying at university in Melbourne, I worked as a Children's Crossing Supervisor, helping ensure the safety and wellbeing of school-aged children at busy crossings. This role strengthened my awareness, communication skills, and ability to remain calm and attentive around children. Parents can feel confident knowing their children are in capable, nurturing, and safe hands.

As a mother of 6 young adults blessed to be stay at home mum I’m committed to natural rhythms and unplugging our children from tech and surrounding them with nature, art and gentle music to slowly open their minds. Gardening is one of my passions as is the beach’s bush walks and bike rides!

I bring three years of childcare experience across all ages, from toddlers to teens through being a ballet teacher, with a BA(Hons) in Professional Dance and Performance enriching my creative approach. First aid certified, I'm comfortable handling pets, cooking, light chores, and homework. I have my drivers licence and own car!

Hello parents, I am a mother, aunt and grandmother to a large beautiful family. In my spare time, I enjoy knitting, walking and being surrounded by loved ones. I believe creativity assist with cognitive growth so I love to plan and complete all the types of arts with children (music, dance, craft, role play etc). Feel free to ask me any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your family.

🌸qualified pediatric nurse | experienced nanny from germany🌸 Hi, my name is Alisa, I’m 26 years old and originally from Germany. ✨🌺I’m a qualified pediatric nurse with a three-year professional nursing degree and several years of experience working with children of different ages and needs. After completing my training, I worked for one year in a mental health clinic for children and adolescents before moving into intensive pediatric care. During my last year of work in Germany, I provided one-on-one care for an eleven-year-old nonverbal autistic girl with very complex needs and severe behavioral challenges. This experience taught me an incredible amount about patience, empathy, staying calm in difficult situations and understanding children beyond words. Alongside my professional nursing experience, I have also worked as a nanny and babysitter. I’m comfortable caring for several children at once – in previous nanny jobs, there were even days when I looked after up to five children. However, after several years of working in very demanding care environments, I’m now looking for something a little different: a warm, personal and joyful way of working with children where I can really connect with them and become a trusted person in their everyday life. I have a very special place in my heart for babies and young children, so finding a family with a little one would honestly make me very happy. At the same time, I genuinely enjoy children of all ages and would be very open to caring for siblings or older children as well. Earlier this year, I decided to leave my life in Germany behind for a while and travel. I wanted to slow down, reconnect with myself and explore more of the world. I’m currently travelling through Southeast Asia and will arrive in Australia around the end of November. I would describe myself as calm, patient, caring and creative. In my free time, I love cooking, being in nature and by the ocean, surfing, yoga and meditation singing, making music, painting and anything creative. Depending on your child’s age and personality, I would love to bring these interests into our time together – whether that means being outside, making something creative, singing, playing, cooking together or simply creating a calm and safe environment. I’m also currently working on improving my English. I can communicate well, but it isn’t perfect yet, so I hope you’ll have a little patience with me from time to time. 😊 I’m flexible with working hours and also open to live-in opportunities if accommodation is available. Most importantly, I would love to find a family where we all feel comfortable with each other and where I can become someone both the children and parents can genuinely trust. I’m really looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! 🤍 If desired, I would be happy to provide my nursing certificate as a qualified pediatric nurse, as well as a reference from my most recent employer. I’m definitely open and flexible when it comes to the hourly rate. I did some research on typical nanny rates in Australia, particularly considering my professional background and qualifications as a pediatric nurse, and this seemed to be a fair range. However, I’m always happy to discuss the rate depending on the family, hours and responsibilities. 😊

Hi! I’m a caring, patient and reliable person with around 3 years of experience working with children with disabilities. I love helping children learn, play and feel safe and comfortable. I’m happy to help with playtime, meals, routines and general babysitting needs. I’m responsible, understanding and always aim to create a positive and fun environment for children. I’m looking forward to meeting new families and helping wherever I can! 😊

Hi I'm a responsible 20 year old who grew up with two younger siblings, and looking to babysit for a family for a couple days a week monday-friday. Currently working for the rest of the year before continuing with my studies February next year. At this stage I am unsure about my commitment level following my return to university... I speak fluent Hungarian but grew up in Australia, I'm happy to play with the kids and keep them entertained, join in their games, do school runs, light housework and such. I have good driving experience with full license if needed (just have to switch over from green Ps to Full but am eligible to). The past two years I've looked after two boys (10 and 12 yr olds), for a local family every couple months when parents were away on work trips. I did school runs, sport activities mostly after school / evenings for the 3-5 days the parents were away, and also the occasional evening babysitting. Would like to look after kids aged approximately 5-10 years...

I’m Ann, a mum of five adult children and a grandmother of 9, based in Raymond Terrace.
