Babysitters in Paddington, NSW

Hi families! My name is Grace and I am looking for a casual nannying role in the eastern suburbs area. I am based in Paddington with access to my own car. I have worked with many families over the years with children ranging in age from newborns to teens so am happy to provide references! I am very caring and patient and absolutely love working with children alongside my studies of Physiotherapy. Please get in contact if you think that I would be a good fit for your family!

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

I have over 10 years of babysitting experience and have worked as a Vet Nurse, Personal Assistant and most recently a Teaching Assistant in London. I’ve now moved to Sydney, and will be studying Primary Education in 2027. I love spending time with kids, helping them learn and keeping things fun but calm. I’m organised, easy-going and confident with children of all ages. Families often say I’m reliable, warm and nice to have around. I’m available for casual, flexible babysitting and happy to help with routines, reading, playtime or just making life a bit easier. I appreciate openness with expectations but also like to have an idea of what is “normal/routine” for them.

I’m looking for additional babysitting work on the side and would love to support families who need a caring, trustworthy, and capable sitter.

Hi! I’m a 30-year-old former toddler gymnastics instructor with over six years of experience working with young children in Perth.

I genuinely love spending time with children and bringing energy, patience, and care into every interaction. Whether it’s reading books, doing crafts, playing outside, or setting up fun, active games, I’m all about keeping kids engaged, happy, and safe. I have plenty of glowing references from families I’ve worked with and am more than happy to share them. If you’re looking for someone reliable, warm, and experienced with little ones, I’d love to connect!

I am an experienced primary school teacher from England. I moved to Australia in September as an au pair, and loved it! I am looking forward to my next nanny family. I am confident with all ages, and have great skill in house management aswell as childcare. I am kind, calm and nurturing- looking after children is my passion. I am really looking forward to hearing from you!

I’m a responsible, fun, and reliable babysitter who genuinely loves children. I bring a calm and positive attitude and pride myself on creating a safe, comfortable environment. I always ensure to read the child's needs first by observing what they love to do - whether that's games, crafts, outdoor activities, or creating make believe scenarios. I love to cook, and I'm very comfortable with helping with homework, preparing meals, and creating a calm bedtime routine. Safety is always my top priority, and I communicate clearly with parents to ensure their peace of mind.

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!

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.

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.

Hello! My name is Carola, nice to meet you! I’m from Argentina, and I’ve been working as a nanny on and off since 2019. My first experience was with a family in Rosario, my hometown. I worked with them for two years. I took care of two children: one from age 3 to 5, and the younger sibling from newborn until age 2. I moved to Rio de Janeiro afterwards, and while I was living there, I also worked with several families—some with newborn babies, others with older children. I have experience taking care of siblings (I have looked after up to 3 kids simultaneously) and working with children from 0 to 8 years old. In my work, I really enjoy talking with the children, playing games or sports, going for walks, playing guitar (if possible and allowed), cooking…overall I like creating a fun, caring environment for them, always adjusting to the needs and personalities. I also have knowledge of healthy nutrition from the very first solid food (BLW/AC feeding), and I completed a first aid course. I’m currently living in Rushcutters Bay area and looking for either a regular fixed job or occasional babysitting work. For references, I have the contact details of all the families I have worked with and would be happy to share them with you so you can cross references with them and clear out any doubts you might have as of course I understand, choosing a caretaker for your kids It´s not a light task. In addition to English and Spanish, I too speak fluent French and Portuguese. I also have basic knowledge of German, Italian and Russian (meaning even though I cannot yet have a full grammar correct conversation I can effectively communicate with small children using simple though straightforward vocabulary) If you are interested in scheduling an introductory meeting, I would be happy to hear from you!

I take pride in being patient and organized and have multiple references upon request :)

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.

I've been looking after kids since I was 14, starting out babysitting for families in my neighbourhood, and it's something I've genuinely always loved. Over the years, that's grown into more formal experience, including two part-time nanny roles and some time working at a childcare centre during school holidays (8 months all up). With my first nanny family, I started when their daughter was just 5 months old and was with her until she turned two, so I got to be part of a lot of firsts! My second role was with a baby from 6 to 10 months, a gorgeous (and busy!) stage of development. The childcare centre work was a different experience again and taught me a lot about working with multiple kids and ages in a more structured environment. I'm First Aid certified and pretty adaptable in how I care for kids; some days call for messy play and running around outside, others are more about quiet time and cuddles. I just follow the child's lead and keep the parents in the loop so everyone's on the same page. I'm currently based in Sydney on a Working Holiday Visa. I've relocated here to be with my partner and am in the process of transitioning to a Partner Visa, so I'm looking to put down roots and find a family I can really settle in with and be a consistent, reliable presence for your kids.
