Babysitters in Petersham, NSW

Hi parents! My name is Aliyah, I am 19 years old. I am a first-year university student doing a bachelor of nursing at UTS. I have had previous babysitting experience babysitting children from 1.5 - 10 years old and working for 3 different families while in high school. I have also worked as a volunteer assistant at a school working in the preschool and first grade for 2 years. During my time at the school, I learned that it is most important to immerse children in creativity and also involve them in tasks such as cooking and baking which I have found promotes development. I also grew up in a house full of kids as I have three nieces and one nephew that are between the ages of 1 - 5 that I frequently babysat and watch grow. I can do laundry, house chores and cook meals. I am currently available 2 - 3 days a week and can work on weekends, however my schedule is subject to change on certain days. Please feel free to contact me for additional details and relevant documents.

Hi My name is Veronica and I have been working with children for 10 years now and I love it. Children always put a smile on my face and I enjoy educating them as the first 5 years are the most important and to be apart of that process makes me feel proud and lucky that I can make a difference. I have worked with 0-school age children as an assistant, group leader and nanny. I am a very hard working young lady and if certain things need to be done just let me know and I can make it happen. I'm happy to negotiate hourly rate but I don't see myself as a babysitter as such as I have qualifications and I have years of experience. I am a very happy and healthy young lady and cannot wait to get started and to meet new families.

Hi! I’m Maarten and I’ve always loved being around kids. Growing up with a big brother, I always looked up to him—and now, I want to be that fun, caring, and reliable ‘big brother’ for the kids I look after. I spent a year as an au pair in the U.S., where I took care of children of different ages, planned fun activities, helped with homework, and made sure they always felt safe and supported. I love creating a warm and playful environment where kids can learn, grow, and just be themselves. I’d love to meet your family and be part of your little one’s journey!

Hello Parents! I grew up in a tight-knit community, consisting of supportive families and their children. There were limited kids my age, so you would always find me chatting away with the adults or being chased after by my younger siblings and their friends in a game of tip! As I began to take on more responsibilities, I provided babysitting and cleaning services for these parents. This, in addition to growing up in a neurodiverse family (including myself) and later caring for my younger brother who has ASD, means I am responsible, understanding and patient. I love cooking delicious and healthy meals, keeping my space tidy and going on adventures! My hobbies include pottery, hiking, drawing, and reading (to name a few). Additional Info: I am in the process of getting a WWCC and have completed a successful Police Check. I have an NZ-restricted manual license and am first-aid certified.

Hello my name is Tahlia, I am 20 years old living in Ashfield. I am currently studying to become a real estate agent, however I am only at uni one day a week so I have plenty of free time. I absolutely love working with kids, I currently work at Abbotsford Public School as an OOSH Educator and I have many years experience babysitting children in my family. I have my WWCC and CPR certification.

I have around ten years of experience caring for children aged 0–13 as a babysitter and nanny. Additionally, I have a degree in Psychological Sciences with a focus on developmental psychology. Beyond babysitting, I have worked as a children's gymnastics coach and art teacher, giving me a well-rounded understanding of child development across different domains. I strive to incorporate evidence-based approaches from my degree to create a nurturing environment that supports children’s developmental needs. My goal is to help raise kind, independent, and resilient children using empirically supported methods tailored to each child's unique personality and stage of growth. Most recently, I completed a three-year position caring for a 5-year-old and a 7-year-old, where I managed school pickups and bedtime routines 1–2 times per week. I also regularly provide casual babysitting for several families and can offer references upon request. I have experience working with children of all ages and abilities, including neurodivergent children, and a variety of interests. I pride myself on being adaptable to each family's needs and preferences. I also hold a valid Working With Children Check. While I generally follow a gentle parenting approach, I am flexible and happy to align with your family’s preferred parenting style.
