Babysitters in Paddington, NSW

Hi families! My name is Monique, and I am a 28-year-old professional and health science student living locally in Paddington. I work as an English teacher and am looking to support local families with reliable part-time and casual babysitting and weekend care. As a mature-age student, I offer a calm, organised, and highly responsible environment for your children. I love creativity, tutoring, and helping kids engage in fun, educational, and creative activities. Because I work as an English teacher, I have experience working with over 15 children at one time, as well as experience teaching children that English is their second language. I am completely non-smoking, have my drivers license, and can easily provide current Working With Children Checks (WWCC) and police clearances. I look forward to becoming a trusted extension of your family support network here in the neighborhood!

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.

I am a 23 year old Pilates instructor who used to nanny full time and is really missing it, so thought it was time to find another family. I have been in the childcare industry since the age of 15 when I started instructing Taekwondo for primary school kids. Since then, I have worked for numerous families in both Canberra (my hometown) and Sydney, including living with a family last year as an au pair. The youngest I have cared for is 3 months, and I have experience with learning and physical disabilities from working in after school care at my old high school.
