Babysitters in Coburg North, VIC

I’m a caring and responsible mum with two grown-up boys who are now in their 20s. I have plenty of hands-on experience raising children and understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their children in someone else’s care. I have also previously worked as a nanny and currently work in aged care, where I provide compassionate, reliable and attentive care. I’m friendly, patient and easygoing, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children.

Heya! I'm a 23-year-old neurodivergent person who loves drawing, crafting, acting, anything that is art, or bugs, and currently studying a Grad Dip in Early Childhood and am close to finishing. I have experience taking care of and playing with 4+ year olds and giving genuine care for them! I usually approach children slowly and get to know them at their own pace, and get along very well with them overall. At the moment, I'm looking for casual babysitting jobs to gain more experience and knowledge.

Hi parents, I’m Kate, 34 yo Female. I’m self employed as a paediatric NDIS support worker and nanny/babysitter on the side. I’m energetic, kind, caring and a dedicated carer. I have 16 years experience as a nanny/ babysitter for babies and children from 6 weeks to 17 years. I have 3 years experience caring for children on NDIS with diagnosis of adhd, autism and global developmental delay. (Please note, my rate for NDIS clients are in line with the current price guide and not as shown on my profile). Additionally, I worked with Melbourne’s Leading Nanny Agency for 3 years from 2014-2017. My specialties are supporting children from 3-17 years with a neurodiverse profile or global developmental delay. However, I love caring for children and babies of all ages. I have a bachelors degree and one of my previous employers was Save the Children Australia. I have availability on Friday and Saturday nights for respite. I look forward to hearing from you. Kate

Greetings! I am Jae. I wear many hats, a Nanny being one of them. I love little people and they tend to like me; perhaps because I am naturally inclined to give them active attention and really listen to them. By trade I was a registered Chinese Medicine Practitioner (Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine) and massage therapist but changed gears and am now studying to be a kindergarten teacher. I love cooking/baking and have a work history in commercial kitchens. It gives me pleasure to feed vegetables to little people; even the ones who need invisible veges in order to achieve this with enjoyment! Before I was engaged in the health field, I was a visual artist (I studied at the VCA) and love being crafty with kids. I am not great at TV but I am good at play doH, painting, reading, playing and dancing. I have worked with Bec's Treehouse Artschool facilitating children's art and craft workshops and face-painting. I have cared for up to three children at once in private homes and have completed placement at two Brunswick kindergartens and a bush kindy with Eco Explorers in 2025. I love being with children on Country. I always clean up as I go and help with basic home chores like washing when possible but your child's safety and happiness is my first priority. I am comfortable caring for children and babes of all ages, from birth and beyond. I volunteer as a doula as I am generally passionate about the miracle of life and making the transition as peaceful as possible for Mum, bub and the whole family. I am very happy to care for siblings in a birth situation. I have also worked with children with complex needs and disabilites through Interchange Outer East. References available on request. I have a current Working with Children check. Thanks for listening!

I also will have finished uni for the year on November 20th so after that I will be available most weekdays as well!

Hi parents! I am a warm, caring, and reliable nursing masters student with over 3 years of experience working part-time as a nanny. I'm hoping to work as a part-time or casual nanny in the Northern suburbs alongside the remaining 18 months of my nursing studies. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and being actively involved in their day, whether that means playing games, doing crafts, helping with homework, or getting outdoors. I love encouraging children to spend time away from screens and finding fun activities we can do together. I am more than happy to help with household tasks such as meal preparation, laundry, and cleaning. I am also very comfortable driving children as I have been driving for 10 years and have my own car. I hold a current WWCC, Police Check, First Aid and Basic Life Support certification, and am happy to obtain an NDIS Screening Check if required. I have ample availability and flexibility around my nursing studies, except Wednesday and Friday daytime I'm in class. Looking forward to hearing from you :)

Hi lovely parents! My name is Téa and I am looking for work, either part time or casual. I am heading off to Europe in July and would love to connect with families who need support from mid August onwards as I am graduating from uni and will have lots of extra time on my hands. 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 fourth year of uni, graduating at the end of this month with a bachelor of arts at the University of Melbourne. I have majored in psychology, and hope to one day work as an animal assisted therapist for children. Availability: I am available to work most days and most times as shown in the chart. However my availability does fluctuate (I will happily convey any changes with you) as I work as a chess coach in schools and work with 3 lovely families. One that requires before and afterschool help on Mondays and Thursdays, and the others require help occasionally. 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 10pm or work on a public holiday. 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 7 and 10, another where I look after a 7 yearold girl and 20 month old baby boy, and the third family has two boys aged 5 and 7. 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 these 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 :)

Hey! My name is Nina, and I’m a bubbly, friendly first-year university student with over five years of babysitting experience. As the oldest of five much younger siblings, I naturally stepped into a caretaker role early on, which sparked my passion for working with children. I began babysitting for other families at 15, and since then, I’ve cared for kids of all ages, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s helping with homework, organising creative games, or simply being a supportive presence, I create a positive and engaging environment for every child in my care. I am certified in first aid, which gives me- and the families I work with peace of mind knowing that safety is always a top priority. I believe that imaginative play is essential for children’s development, so I love bringing creativity into our time together, from arts and crafts to make-believe adventures. understand the trust families place in their nannies, and I am committed to providing reliable, nurturing, and attentive care.

Hi, I’m Amber! About 18 months ago I left my full-time job in health and international development to focus on my passion for creative writing and young adult literature, which I’m now studying full-time. Babysitting is a natural fit alongside my studies -- I love spending time with kids and creating a calm, fun space where they feel comfortable and happy. I've been with the same family for the last year, looking after their 5yo girl 5-6 times a week. We spend most of our time together performing shows for her toys, crafting and making up our own games. Growing up in Perth I often babysat for extended family and I also worked in a daycare during my teens. I have a current Working With Children Check (complete with Police Check) and completed First Aid training in 2021 -- I'm happy to renew it if required. I'm warm, dependable, and playful -- I love reading stories and getting creative with games. I'm equally happy to just be around before/after school to make sure everything runs smoothly. I'm looking for ongoing part-time work which works alongside the family I currently care for. I do Monday and Tuesday pick-up and drop-off, as well as Wednesday drop-off, so unfortunately I'm not available during those times. I’m happy to help with light tidying up and cleaning -- like putting away toys, washing dishes, or wiping surfaces -- but I don’t do extensive house cleaning.

I’m a warm, caring and reliable nanny with experience working with three families in Austria. I built lasting relationships with children ranging from 1–6 years old, and loved being part of their everyday lives. I enjoyed everything from kindergarten pick-ups and routines to trips to the zoo and aquarium. I cared for the children in both English and German, and it was wonderful seeing their English improve while we spent time together. I’m patient, responsible and genuinely enjoy creating a fun, safe and nurturing environment for children.

I’m a friendly, caring and responsible person who has been babysitting since I was 14. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for children of different ages and understand the importance of creating a safe, fun and comfortable environment. I’m patient, reliable and enjoy keeping children entertained through activities, games and creative play. I’m also happy to help with meals, homework, bedtime routines and other everyday tasks. I recently completed Year 12 and will be starting university next year. I’m trustworthy, organised and always aim to make both children and parents feel comfortable and confident in my care.

Need a nanny that can also tutor your children and speak to them in three different languages? I am a teacher from Germany that has over 6 years of experience babysitting children. And all of that in one family: I started taking care of a 6 months old baby until she was 7 years old and had an additional brother. During Covid I was a full-time nanny, which gave me insight to what it means to take care of a child on a daily basis. In addition, I worked as a teacher for primary and secondary school students for several years and am more than happy to tutor your child!
