Babysitters in Coburg, VIC

Hello, my name is Olivia, I am 20 years old and I have lived in Melbourne for a year and a half now, originally from Canberra. I am currently working towards a Cert 3 in Early Childhood Education and Care. I have previous experience working with children across a range of different ages and environments including long day care and after school hours. I also have two younger siblings that I love very much and I have grown up with, my younger sister is 8 and my younger brother is 16. As the eldest daughter I always loved helping my parents with them, whether it was playing with them, feeding them, changing them etc. From a young age I have always loved working with children and it is something I have decided I want to work towards for my future.

I am a personable, reliable, caring, and energetic pre-service teacher with over 5 years of experience in learning support, teaching and childminding in a creche setting. I have an outstanding background in creating meaningful, yet professional relationships with colleagues, students, and their parents/caregivers. I apply a very strong work ethic to all set tasks and have a passion for education. I have recently moved to Melbourne from Sydney, NSW, and am seeking to obtain casual or part-time employment on Wednesdays and/or Thursdays.

Hi there! I am a single mother of two wonderful daughters, aged 13 and 18, and I have plenty of experience caring for children of all ages. Not only will I provide excellent care for your children, but I can also assist with cooking delicious meals (I specialize in Japanese cuisine but can adapt to your preferences), cleaning, laundry, ironing, and pet care. I am a nurturing and attentive caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. In addition to my caregiving skills, I am an avid reader, love cooking and baking, and enjoy kickboxing as a way to stay active. I am also respectful and understanding, always prioritizing the needs of the children I care for. If you're looking for a fun, creative, and reliable babysitter, I would love to meet you and your children. Please feel free to reach out to me to discuss your childcare needs. I look forward to hearing from you.

I am a happy, friendly, creative person. I have completed a Certificate III in early childhood education, I have a police check and working with children check and first aid training. I pursued a career in nannying as I am interested in children development and learning and I take pride in cultivating positive relationships as a career and educator.

Hi lovely parents! My name is Téa and I am looking for work over the school holidays period, either part time or casual. Ideally, any parents reaching out need someone to babysit/child mind on a regular basis or to help in regards to an upcoming event. Background: I am in my third year of uni, studying a bachelor of arts at the University of Melbourne. I major in psychology, and hope to one day work as an animal assisted therapist for children. Availability: For the school holiday period I am available to work every day, at any time. However, when school starts again I am only available to work on the weekends. This is because I currently work with 3 lovely families. One that requires casual babysitting once every fortnight or so after hours, so my availability can fluctuate but I will happily convey this with you. A second that requires before school help from 7:30am till 10am, and continued casual assitance over the holidays. And the third requires fortnightly help on Thursday’s from 5:30pm till 8:30pm. Rate: My rate is $40 per hour, but I charge an extra $10 per hour (ie. $50 per hour) if you are wanting me to stay past midnight. Services: 1. Babysitting/child minding 2. Pet sitting/walking 3. Cooking/meal prep 4. Light cleaning 5. Basic homework help 6. Fun! Experience and Qualifications: As I’ve mentioned, I am currently working with three families. One where I look after two young boys aged 9 and 12, another where I look after a 6 yearold girl and newborn baby boy, and the third family has two boys ager 4 and 6. However, my experience working with children is much more vast. One of my hobbies growing up was playing chess, and I have fortunately been able to make a job out of it by tutoring primary and secondary school students. I have worked solo with classes of 3 to 20+ students at a time, and in team settings with 400 kids under my care. This means that I have gained a deep understanding as how to work with children who have learning difficulties and behavioural challenges. My work also requires me to have an employee wwcc and first aid certificate in an education and care setting. Upon request I am happy to share this with you. I have my license and can take kids to and from school/sport or any other activities. If I had your permission, I would love to take them to the zoo, park, bowling, etc to keep them entertained and happy. I completely understand if you would prefer to meet me before agreeing to any work and am happy to do so. I can’t wait to hear from you :)

Additionally, I am a chef, so I enjoy creating healthy meals for the children I care for.

Hello wonderful families, My name is Indi, I am from Ballarat and moved to Melbourne at the beginning of 2023 to study a Bachelor of Science at The University of Melbourne. I am now in my final year and am majoring in Human Structure and Function with the intention of furthering my studies afterwards with a medical degree. Over the past few years I have had extensive experience caring for children of all ages including children with disabilities and am confident and experienced looking after children of all ages.

I look forward to getting to know new families and creating lasting bonds and memories. Thank you!! Indi

Hello lovely Parents, I'm an energetic, creative and responsible woman who has proof of experience with young children. I truly enjoy playing, discovering and learning from each unique personality of my young friends. I've been working in children's birthday parties and babysitting since I was 15. The most exciting experience was held in 2021 when I worked as a teacher/facilitator of a weekly workshop on "Art and Game" for groups of 3-6 and 7-10 years old where I created and co-created fun and meaningful experiences in all sort of topics (ask me about it! :) ). I Have a certificate of Yoga for children from which tools I've wanted to apply again. I believe that each parent is truly doing the best they can for his son/daughter, so I'm more than happy to respect your style and rules. Honest communication and constructive feedback are a must. Looking forward to hearing from you :). Thank you for your trust.
