Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi! My name is Aela. I’m a warm, creative, and reliable person who genuinely loves spending time with children. Growing up in a family of six, I’ve always been surrounded by younger siblings and relatives, so caring for kids has been a natural part of my life. I’ve also done babysitting in the past, and I really enjoy building positive relationships with children and helping them feel happy, safe, and supported. I’m currently studying Jewellery Making at Melbourne Polytechnic, which has taught me patience, creativity, and great attention to detail. I love getting involved in arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, baking, games, and other fun activities that keep children engaged and entertained. I’m a caring and responsible person who understands how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are in safe hands. I always aim to create a fun, nurturing environment where kids can learn, play, and be themselves.

My name is Asha, I am 20 years old and am currently looking for a casual or potential part time nanny/ babysitting job. I am currently working at a jewellery store on a casual basis and studying 3 days a week. But I would love to spend some of my spare time looking after some fun kids! I enjoy the outdoors and exercising, spending time with friends and family, as well as being creative and learning new things. I also love animals and have experience in dog sitting and babysitting (happy to provide references). I would love to meet a great family that I could hopefully help out a few times a week, as well as provide school pick ups and drop offs, clean the house and make meals if needed (I am quite the chef). I love spending time with Kids and would be so grateful to find the right fit for me!

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

I am energetic and absolutely love being with little children out, playing, movement, dancing, singing, making food, walks and discovering the little things in our world outdoors. Have been a nanny for 10 years, researched and experienced the early childhood and development field and have completed my Diploma in early childhood in 2018. Even though I explored the early childhood field in childcare centres my delight is in being out and about mostly in nature with kids exploring the local surroundings, bugs, plants, birds, playgrounds etc. Sometimes even a walk when done slowly, just down the street can be amazing. When we stop and notice the scents, sounds and each little thing that is there. I find this to be a favourite of children and I enjoy being in the present moment with them. My background has been in fashion design and at the moment the wellbeing space.
