Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

I’m a compassionate, kind and empathetic person who genuinely enjoys working with children and supporting families. I have around 10 years of experience across child development, youth work, community services and government-funded organisations, working with children, young people and families in a range of settings. I hold a Certificate IV in Youth Work, Diploma of Community Services and Certificate IV in Training and Assessment, all completed through TAFE. I have also recently completed a Diploma of Sustainable Living and am continuing to learn and develop my knowledge in sustainability. My work experience has given me a strong understanding of trauma-informed care, child safety, duty of care, client-centred practice and strengths-based approaches. I believe every child is different, so I like to understand what they enjoy, what they're good at and what makes them feel comfortable. I then tailor the way I work around the individual child. I have worked across State Government, Local Government and government-funded and community organisations, including the Australian Red Cross Young Parents Program and a residential facility supporting teenagers with babies. These experiences have involved working in environments where child safety, responsibility, boundaries and duty of care are extremely important. I also have personal experience caring for children of different ages. I have two younger sisters who came into our family when I was 15, so caring for children and being involved in family life has been a part of my life for a long time. I have a Surf Life Saving background and am a strong swimmer, with relevant water-safety and First Aid experience. I’m comfortable around water and understand the importance of being vigilant and responsible when caring for children. Outside of my professional experience, I’m a very creative and curious person. I enjoy sustainability, gardening and permaculture, and have a background in textiles. I love arts and crafts, painting, collaging, cooking and baking, reading, getting outdoors and trying different sports. I’m very much an all-rounder and am always happy to give something new a go. I also understand how busy working households can be. For me, the role is about making parents' lives easier, while providing children with someone who is caring, reliable, responsible and engaged. I’m happy to follow the routines and structure that work for your family, communicate clearly with parents and work collaboratively with you. Whether it’s helping with homework, getting outside, creating something together, preparing food, playing a game, attending activities or simply being a supportive and reliable person for your child, I enjoy being involved and getting to know what makes each child tick.

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

Hi! I'm Claudia and I'm a uni student at University of Sydney doing a Bachelor of Primary Education. I have reactivated my profile in my penultimate year of study to offer services of ad hoc babysitting and primary age tutoring. To sum my career path; I was inspired to switch degrees (from an Arts/Sciences degree) after spending time with my regular nannying family, working with the kids doing their online schoolwork during the first lockdown. I had been babysitting and nannying for nearly 5 years at that point and I decided I didn't want my career to diverge from work I loved so much. I also had wonderful nannies and babysitters growing up so I understand the importance of a wonderful carer and would love to provide that. I finished up working for a lovely family with two boys in the inner west in 2022. I started looking after them when they were just 7 and 10 in 2017; being grown and in high school it was a joy to see them grow up and outgrow me. In 2023 I started with a family in Lane Cove, with two lovely boys. I left in 2024 to pursue work as a Teacher's Aide for students on the autism spectrum. My availability is a little in flux with my university timetable from semester to semester. I am open to ad hoc work, casual babysitting, and day time childcare as needed. My availability does also increase drastically for daytime hours during semester breaks from June-August and November-February, so there is usually some flexibility in what I can offer. With regards to tutoring; I studied Maths, English, French and Art in high school, and furthered my science and languages studies for several years at university before switching to Teaching. In my education studies I have completed core units in mathematics, english, and science and I am current on curriculum materials and teaching approaches. For additional pay per/h I can do Laundry - Vacuuming - General tidy up - Kitchen/Bathroom clean. I have previously regularly babysat for ages 4+, including siblings. I have had some experience with 10 month and 2 year old, mostly in the evenings. All of my past babysitting has involved cooking dinners, doing bath time, bed time stories and runs to the park to keep them entertained :) I'm more than happy with pets. As well as being up to date with COVID vaccinations, I have my licence (and am looking to purchase own car in the near future).
