Babysitters in Ferny Grove, QLD

I have a large family with two younger brothers and lots of little cousins. I am usually the one left in charge of them and my extended family have asked for my help looking after their kids while they're busy (they're around 5-8 depending on the cousin). I have a planned course to go into primary education first through TAFE and QUT, but due to personal and family matters, I am getting some work experience first.

I have worked in childcare since I was 16 and have been assistant in a nursery, Early Childhood Teacher and a lead in the Toddler room. I love children and have made lasting relationships with them where I have been lucky enough to look after them in nursery and see them again in Kindergarten. I babysit for past families from daycare and have become regulars for them all as they trust me and love having me around. I have my first aid, Blue Card, A car seat for my own vehicle, and my Bachelor in early childhood education. I have taken a step away from childcare to refocus on study and take a new path for my future. I am wanted to still making meaningful and loving connections with families and still be able to complete my studies. If you have any question I would love to hear from you!

I have worked with babies, toddlers and primary aged children in crèches 2014-2024. Parents and children would look forward to seeing me working in the creche. My manager at one creche had told me mums would phone to see if was working on the day they were coming in. I once was asked if I would relocate to be a live in nanny. Many times I was asked to babysit the children from the creche outside of creche hours and still do on occasions. Several times I filled in for my daughter’s nanny job as well while she attended uni commitments. I was given the responsibility to look after children overnight as well. I am 63 years young and despite the few wrinkles, young at heart and energetic. I have 2 daughters but not yet a grandmother. I love gardening, organising cupboards and quite enjoy craft activities. I am very reliable. I care for other children as I would my own, being a nanny is not just a job. I like to build relationships with the children and family. Children’s happiness and safety is the priority.

Hi! I’m a student currently studying a Bachelor of Speech Pathology. As the eldest of seven children, I’ve grown up helping care for my younger siblings, which has given me plenty of hands-on experience with kids of all ages.

I aim to connect with each child by aligning activities with their interests to keep them engaged, entertained, and feeling comfortable. I always try to create a positive and safe environment where kids can feel heard and supported.

Hi! My name is Lauren and I’m a caring and responsible adult who enjoys supporting children to feel safe, valued, and encouraged. Growing up in a rural community and as one of four children, I’ve interacted with kids of all ages and understand the importance of community in a child’s development. I’ve coached MiniRoos soccer teams and love spending time with my niece, helping her learn, explore, and stay active. Being school captain taught me to balance the needs of students, rules, and parents, and I now bring that same sense of responsibility and understanding to my work with children. I strongly believe it takes a village to raise a child, and children are shaped by everyone around them, including their nanny. This type of work suits me perfectly, allowing me to balance study, work, and physical activity while being a positive influence in children’s lives.
