Babysitters in Lewisham, NSW

Hi parents! I am based in the inner west (but happy to travel further) and available for babysitting and nannying. I have superb experience babysitting for many families for well over a decade. I worked at a party play centre as a children's host and entertainer for five years and have cared for children from 6 months to 13 years old. I have a wonderful list of references who you can get in contact with. I'm reliable, creative and caring. Please feel free to get in touch!

I am an Argentinian teacher currently living in Australia. I have plenty of experience with children since I have worked both as a Babysitter and teacher with kids from different ages. I have developed skills in child development, learning strategies, and behavior management. My passion for fostering a nurturing and stimulating environment makes me an excellent choice for families seeking a reliable and caring babysitter.

Hi! Im Vye, I am currently studying my medical undergraduate with plans to pursue a future postgraduate in Paediatrics, and my Philosophy degree simply for a passion of understanding humanity. I have had many jobs during university and high school and found that nannying is the one that feels most suited to me and my personality. I am kind, bubbly and outgoing, but am the eldest sibling in my family and have inherited a stern nature when it comes to knowing whats right and how to go about it. I have three years of experience with ages between 6 months - 5 years old. I am a big advocate for creative play without the need for screens (:

I’m Elyn, a warm, patient and reliable nanny based in Petersham. With experience as a babysitter, teacher assistant and volunteer in orphanages, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from tiny babies to curious toddlers and school-aged kids. Childcare has always been a meaningful part of my life. I love creating calm, engaging and safe spaces where children feel supported, valued and free to explore. Families describe me as nurturing, responsible and very communicative. My approach is grounded in respect, empathy and positive guidance — always following each child’s rhythm, needs and personality. I’m also studying Early Childhood Education, which helps me bring fresh, development-focused ideas into my work. I’m comfortable with pets and happy to assist with light household tasks to make your day easier. My goal is simple: to care for your little ones with the same love, patience and intention that I would want for my own future children.

I have been a children’s art teacher for a number of years, now I work in administration in an art school. Looking after younger people has always given me joy. Having started babysitting at 14, I have lots of experience.

I am a 36 year old female nanny. I was born and raised in Sydney, Australia. I have 10 years of experience with children from 6 months to 15 years old. I can provide references. I have a WWCC and a Police Check. I am first aid certified. I have a drivers license. I find caring for children very fulfilling and I have formed close bonds with all the families I have worked for. In most past positions I have also completed housework, cleaning and cooking and am happy to do both and any other additional services that are required. I am studying a Diploma of Counselling. I am comfortable and experienced with pets. I live in Petersham. I have been working in traffic control for the past 6 months, but I would like to go back to nannying as it is more fulfilling and so I can study more. Please let me know if you would like to organise a video call to meet each other and discuss details of the position.

Hi, I’m Harper! 😊 I’m 23 and a caring, reliable and friendly babysitter with a genuine love for working with children. I’ve been looking after children my whole life, starting with my younger siblings and continuing through babysitting for families. I also have experience working in support work, which has taught me how to confidently manage a household, prepare meals, keep children safe and create a calm, positive environment. I’ve studied psychology, youth counselling and mental health, which has given me a strong understanding of children’s cognitive and emotional development and how important it is to support each child as an individual. I’m happy to help with school runs, meals, homework, playtime, bedtime routines and keeping the house tidy. I’m creative, patient and love getting children involved in fun activities rather than just putting them in front of a screen. I hold my WWCC, First Aid and CPR and take the responsibility of caring for children very seriously. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you can trust and rely on!

Bonjour! 🇫🇷 I’m a French mum of two little ones, a 2.5-year-old and a 5-month-old baby, and I’m bilingual in French and English. As a mum myself, I have plenty of hands-on experience caring for newborns and toddlers. I’m very comfortable with all the little things that come with caring for babies, from feeding and nappy changes to naps, routines, and soothing a fussy newborn. I also love spending time with toddlers, helping them learn, play, and explore the world around them. My maternity leave is coming to an end at the beginning of November, and as my husband will be starting his paternity leave around the same time, I’ll be available to help another family while he looks after our baby and our older child attends daycare. ✨ My availability: • Tuesday to Friday throughout November • Available for nannying or mother’s helper roles • Taking a month off in France with my family after November I’d love to support a family who needs an extra pair of hands, whether that’s caring for a newborn, looking after a toddler, helping with both little ones, or simply making the day a little easier for a busy mum. Being a mum of two has given me so much practical experience, patience, and confidence with little ones, and I understand just how valuable it is to have someone trustworthy, caring, and experienced by your side. I’d love to connect with a family who thinks I could be a good fit! 🤍
