Babysitters in Collingwood, VIC

Hi parents! My name is Kate :) I am a professional, fun, bubbly, and caring early childhood educator and disability support worker. I hold a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. I love music, traveling, reading, arts and crafts, going on fun adventures, and spending quality time with my family and friends! I have been babysitting family friends' children (aged 2-7) from the age of 15 and have always enjoyed it. I have also volunteered in primary schools with prep and grade one classes. I've worked in childcare centres and have also done private nannying for families long term, so therefore, I have had lots of experience working with babies, toddlers, and kindergarten-aged children. Working with children is my passion and I love building strong relationships with them and being a part of their social, emotional, and physical development! If you feel like I would be a good match for your family, please don't hesitate to send me a message. I hope to hear from you :)

I am a young uni student who loves kids. I am friendly, fun, outgoing person who is really family orientated.

I am reliable, trustworthy and I understand the importance of the responsibility of looking after people’s children and being highly responsible.

I am a warm, dependable and nurturing nanny and part time Primary School Teacher with over 10 years of childcare experience, including four years caring for two girls from infancy through their early childhood. Currently completing a Master of Teaching (Primary) after graduating with a Bachelor of Psychological Science, I am passionate about supporting children's development through responsive, play-based learning and meaningful relationships. I love creating calm, consistent routines where children feel safe, confident and encouraged to explore, while building genuine, trusting relationships with both children and their families.
