My name is Fiona, I am 21 years old and live in Melbourne, Victoria. I am currently completing a Bachelor of Radiography at RMIT and with some extra free time, I am eager to use it by becoming a nanny for young children. As I pursue a medical degree, I value the opportunity to balance my studies with something I am equally passionate about which is caring for and supporting children. I feel confident caring for both boys and girls and i love engaging children in creative and educational activities, encouraging their curiosity and confidence as they learn and grow. My genuine admiration for children and compassionate nature, makes me excited about the chance to contribute to their growth and wellbeing as a part-time or casual nanny.

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

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! When nannying I enjoy getting outside and doing activities like going to parks and playgrounds followed by a babychino. 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 :)

Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi, I'm Sabrina! I'm stocked to introduce myself as a prospective babysitter, and I'm excited about the opportunity to work with your family. With a lifelong passion for working with children, I've been an unofficially babysitter to my baby sister since I was 10 years old and have been the go-to unpaid babysitter for my younger cousins. Additionally, I've worked at a preschool, organized summer camp activities, and worked with children aged 3 to teens. These experiences have not only honed my skills but also deepened my love for creating engaging and nurturing environments for kids. The kids I've worked with would likely describe me as the "coolest and most fun teacher" - an empathic listener, a great storyteller (I'm also the author of two books!), and maybe a bit of a softie when it comes to board games (I like to let them win!). My sister, on the other hand, might offer a more critical perspective, but I'm sure she'd agree that I'm responsible, ensure things don't get out of control, and prioritize her well-being including limiting screen time and making sure she eats and sleeps on time! As a babysitter, I'm committed to creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for your little ones. I'm passionate about getting to know each child as an individual and tailoring my approach to meet their unique needs and interests. I'm enthusiastic about the opportunity to work with your family and would love the chance to discuss how I can contribute to your child's care and development. Thank you for considering my application! Best regards, Sabrina Fernandez

Hi there! My name is Lucy, I’m 28 years old and moved over from London to Melbourne at the start of last year.

I have had lots of babysitting experience before (and love kids!), including working for a lovely family (boy and girl aged 3 and 6) when I first arrived and have 3 brothers and sisters so I am used to a little chaos at times. I have also worked with children, including disabled children, teaching them to ride horses on the beaches in England (although I’m sure not as nice as the beaches in Australia!). I’m easy going, responsible but love to have fun and would love to find a nice babysitting job in Melbourne. Open to all ages/personalities/requirements!

Hi! I’m Sophie, a 28-year-old from the UK who has been living in Melbourne for the past 2.5 years. I’m based in Fitzroy and currently self-employed, running my own vintage clothing business. I’m looking for some extra work during the week and would love the opportunity to help out with a family on a regular basis. I have plenty of babysitting experience, having looked after younger cousins and family friends’ children in the UK, including casually babysitting for a neighbour’s 5-year-old for around two years. Since moving to Melbourne, I’ve also regularly looked after a 1-year-old for just under a year for a previous boss. I absolutely love spending time with children and enjoy getting involved in their interests, whether that’s reading, drawing, playing games, listening to music, getting outdoors or coming up with fun creative activities. I’m also very happy to help with homework and schoolwork and understand the importance of being both responsible and fun! I have my own car and a full Australian driver’s licence, so I’m happy to help with school pickups, activities and getting children where they need to be. I’m reliable, patient and flexible, and would be very happy to help a family in whatever way I can. If a Working With Children Check (WWCC) is required, I’m more than happy to obtain one. I look forward to meeting you and your family! 😊 Best, Sophie
