I am a highly dedicated and experienced childcare professional with a genuine passion for supporting children’s growth, development, and emotional well-being. I am excited to apply for the Nanny/Housekeeping role with your family, where I can provide nurturing and structured care while offering reliable household management and tailored family support. Having grown up in Randwick and now living in Maroubra, I am very familiar with the Eastern Suburbs, including its parks and beaches. I am an everyday driver, confident in safely transporting children to daycare, activities, or local outings. My car comfortably accommodates two baby seats and has plenty of boot space for groceries or toys that come along for the ride. My childcare journey began as an aerial coach for children aged 4–17, where I developed patience, mentorship, and adaptive teaching skills. This inspired me to complete a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care and work as a full-time educator at Goodstart Early Learning, gaining hands-on experience in routines, developmental activities, and play-based learning. Since then, I have expanded into private nannying, supporting two families: one on a full-time basis with two boys aged 10 months and 3.5 years, and another on an ad hoc basis, caring for a girl aged 11 months and a 3.5-year-old boy. I am committed to fostering children’s independence, confidence, and emotional regulation through structured routines, guided autonomy, and engaging play. I also have experience supporting children with disabilities and special needs, adapting activities to create safe, inclusive, and supportive environments. Alongside childcare, I bring strong household management skills and a keen attention to detail, including meal preparation, laundry, organisation, scheduling, and maintaining a calm, tidy home. I take pride in anticipating family needs and ensuring the household runs smoothly, so parents can feel supported and at ease. I hold current First Aid, CPR, and SIDS qualifications, a P2 Australian Driver’s Licence with my own vehicle, and excellent communication and problem-solving skills. I would be delighted to bring my energy, warmth, and organisation to support your children and household. Thank you for considering my application. I would love the opportunity to meet you and discuss how I can contribute to your family’s daily life, routines, and overall well-being.

I have just finished working with a family I have been with for over four years and it’s seems my time has come to an end. I previously studied counselling at the University of Notre Dame, where I complete 3 of the four years. This course included the study of child psychology. I also worked at Maroubra play time preschool full time for a little over a year until the business was sold. I am currently enrolled to start my Cert III in Childhood education and care with Randwick Tafe, so will be needing time throughout the week to complete it. I am inherently a patient person and creative person which enables me to handle individuals children behaviours and tailor activities to suit each child’s personality. In my various roles and employment, I have a proven track record of working well in a team environment, developing and maintaining relationships with customers or parents and motivating and leading peers to attain a high standard of service. I possess excellent skills needed to be an ideal candidate that has 13+ years experience of looking after children.

Hello! My name is Mira and I am a student from Boston studying at UNSW from August-December. I am looking for part time babysitting hours during my stay.

Hello/Bonjour families, My name is Oceane, I am 30 years old and originally from France. After being a nanny during 1 year in Sydney for a lovely 5 month old boy and a 2yo girl, I am currently an Au Pair in Clovelly and studying a Certificate III and Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care. I have been nannying regularly since I was 18 years old, always alongside my studies, which has given me many years of consistent, hands-on experience with children of different ages (specialy babies and toddlers). I was a nanny for a lovely 5 month old boy (age when I started) and a lovely 2yo girl during my first year in Sydney. I spent a year and a half in the United States as an Au Pair, where I cared for three children (5 months, 2.5 years, and 6.5 years old at the time of my arrival) for one year, and then for a 7-month-old baby in another family for six months. This experience was incredibly enriching and sparked my strong interest in child development. I then moved to New Zealand for 15 months, where I worked as a nanny for three main families, caring for children between 1 and 2 years old. One of the 2-year-olds welcomed a baby sister, giving me the opportunity to care for a newborn and support her development until she was 5 months old. I am now based in Sydney, where I continue to work as an au pair and a nanny for wonderful families. I am studying Early Childhood Education and Care, as I am planning to build my long-term career in this field, ideally becoming a Play Therapist and working in education. I would be happy to provide my CV and references upon request. I would love to find a family with whom I can build a strong and lasting relationship. I look forward to hearing from you. A bientôt, Océanen
