Hi My name is Indi Ruthven, I am looking for nannying/babysitting work 3-5 days a week! A little bit about me: I am based in Richmond, granduated school from St Michael’s Grammar in 2024 and I am currently studying Nursing. I am an experienced and dedicated childcare professional with several years of hands-on babysitting experience, working with children from a wide range of ages and family backgrounds. In 2025, I completed a rewarding gap year at St Catherine’s School in Bramley, UK, where I worked full-time with children across a variety of settings. My role at St Catherine’s was dynamic and multifaceted. I supported classroom activities, provided after-school care, and was responsible for supervising and engaging with children throughout the day. My duties included everything from helping with academic tasks to playing and caring for children during free time. I also taught swimming lessons and coached school teams in basketball, netball, and tennis—developing both my leadership skills and my ability to connect with children through sport. This experience, combined with my long-standing babysitting background, has strengthened my confidence, adaptability, and passion for working with young people in both educational and recreational environments. I have done training in CPR, first aid and life guarding as my role last year required lots of skills. I also hold a valid working with children’s check. I absolutely love spending time with kids, helping with homework, playing outside, and making sure there is a good routine for them! while prioritising a fun and safe environment. I have references that can be sent through if needed, as well I have my own car and am on my green P plates. My base rate is $35 an hour. Thank you for your consideration Indi x

Hi families, My name is Harriet, I am from a small country town but am currently living in Melbourne and am studying physiotherapy. I have been nannying/babysitting for over 3 years and have cared for children aged 3 months up to 12 years. I love building meaningful relationships with the children as well as working with parents to help make their busy lives run a bit smoother!

My lego and duplo skills are also drastically improving thanks to my current families. I also love a bit of imaginary play, princesses is a personal favourite of mine. I am more then happy to help out with tasks around the house. I am the youngest of four so am used to a bit of chaos. I look forward to working with you, Thanks Harriet :)
