Babysitters in Canterbury, VIC

I am a fun and energetic mother of 4 and I am keen to find some casual or regular night time babysitting. I am particularly fond of infants and am happy to do overnight stays to give new mums a much needed break. I am comfortable with children of all ages (including newborns).

I have been working with children since I was very young. My experience includes teaching English in schools, tutoring students of different ages, and working in summer camps. I am passionate about education and child development, and I always strive to create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for kids. My background in teaching has given me strong skills in patience, creativity, and communication. I enjoy organizing educational activities, helping with homework, and engaging children in meaningful play. As a nanny, I am responsible, caring, and dedicated to ensuring children’s well-being and happiness while supporting their learning and growth.

Hello! My name is Lucy, and I am 20 years old. I am currently studying at Deakin University completing the bachelor or nursing and midwifery. I have been a babysitter for 2 years now, where I have cared for ages ranging from 10 months to 13 years old. I come from a big family of six, which has allowed me to be an unofficial babysitter for most of my life. I have a bubbly personality and am fantastic with infants and children! My availability is revolved around my uni timetable. For this semester I am free each day of the week except Wednesdays. I look forward to hearing from you :)

Although I do not have formal babysitting experience, I frequently assist relatives with caring for younger siblings and cousins, which has helped me develop strong childcare skills. I am capable of cooking, cleaning, and managing household tasks efficiently. I have a genuine love for working with children and am attentive to their needs, ensuring they are safe, happy, and engaged. Additionally, I am a quick learner and adaptable, allowing me to easily take on new responsibilities and contribute around the house. I am committed to providing a positive and nurturing environment for children while offering support to you and your family.

Hi! I’m Lisa, a 19-year-old university student currently studying at Monash University. I’m Australian-Hungarian and lived in Melbourne for over ten years before moving to Hungary, and now I'm back and based in Camberwell. I have around six months of part-time experience working at a daycare, caring for children aged 2 to 6. I’ve also spent a lot of time throughout the years babysitting my younger cousins, so I’m confident and comfortable looking after children of all ages. I enjoy engaging with children beyond just supervision—whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, doing arts and crafts, or taking them to the park for outdoor activities. I’m also happy to assist with any pets, cooking, and any cleaning. Although I don’t have my driver’s license yet, I’m comfortable using public transport for tasks such as school pickups, shopping, or running any errands. My availability is very flexible, including most weekdays and weekends. If you have any questions or would like to discuss a babysitting role, feel free to contact me—I’d love the opportunity to help and look forward to hearing from you!

Growing up, I looked after all of my little cousins and family friends, and to this day, I love being around kids. I'm super fun and upbeat, and ill will likely be having more fun with the crafts than the kids. I'm happy to do pick-ups and drop-offs, any work around the house, and I would say I'm a pretty great cook!

Hi, I'm Brooke! I’m a 31 year old full time local primary school teacher (currently teaching Year One) and have been teaching since 2019.

I have looked after newborns from 6 weeks old on many occasions, both during the day and overnight. I am an extremely organised, energetic, reliable and caring individual. I come from a large family of 6 kids and adore animals, so pets are not a problem for me.
