Hi, I’m Aanya! I’m 20 years old and a very experienced babysitter who would love the opportunity to nanny or babysit for a family looking for someone like me :) I am a positive and enthusiastic person, who finds caring for kids the most rewarding and enjoyable job in the world. I spent most of my teenage years babysitting, and have been seriously nannying the last 3 years post school. I have a range of experience with different familys, and have looked after kids between 7 months and 12 years old. I love to read, bake, and enjoy spending time outdoors with friends and family as I grew up road tripping/camping all over the country. I discovered my love for kids through childcare centre volunteer work, and in the last 3 years have worked both full time and part time jobs as a nanny for multiple families, gaining lots of experience. I also have just deferred my course in early learning, but plan to finish the certificate next year :) I’ve learnt patience and empathy through caring for kids, and the importance of being warm and understanding as at the end of the day, these are childrens minds and hearts I am helping to grow, which is an amazing thing to get to experience. I‘m super clean and organised, and have no problem doing housework, cooking meals, cleaning up after play and have experience with school drops-offs/pick-ups. I do have a couple casual nannying jobs already, but if I seem like a fit for your family and you’re interested in getting in touch, please shoot me a message anyway and we can see what can be worked out as I’m looking for something a bit more full time/permanent :) I am also happy to do the occasional live-in stay. I am first aid/cpr trained, and have completed the early learning education and trainings Protecting Children - Mandatory Reporting and other Obligations course. I understand the importance of maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for a child, and aim to prioritise that fully. Please feel free to get in touch if you have anymore questions regarding me and my experience, or if I seem a good fit for your family. I look forward to chatting with you :)

I've had many years experience working as a nanny and babysitter, including live-in sole charge, in Australia, UK , and Switzerland where in Geneva I was employed by a member of the Italian royal family.

I charge the equivalent of 3 hours fees for a day/evening cancellation that is made with less than 12 hours notice. This fee will be waived if a substitute booking, equal to the monetary value of the original booking, can be arranged to be worked within the next fortnight. My evening rate starts at 8 pm and the day rate resumes at midnight . I do not take work that involves using my car to transport children under 3. I charge 80 cents per km for the use of my car.

Reference by Emmalee “Absolutely worth her weight in gold! Sez is reliable, loyal and passionate about the care of little ones. She took the best of care of our baby girl from age 13 to 17 months with loads play and educational trips out. There was no doubt in our minds that our child was her number one focus. Excellent communication and highly educated - we could not recommend Sez highly enough! We were so lucky to have found a wonderful nanny straight away (have heard a few horror stories). While our little one is heading off to conventional child care for now, we will definitely still book Sez on the weekends and would love to have her back again for our next little one prior to heading off to childcare. “ I have years of experience , kind and loving nature with high tolerance and peaceful demeanour . I will make sure your house is also in order and clean for not only you but also for your children. I have been with a couple of family for 7 years and now tutor them through homeschooling If you would like to chat you can send me a message any time that is good for you !

I’m all about balance, so when I’m not on the go, I love shopping, exploring new places, and travelling with friends and family. Whether it’s a beach day, a spontaneous adventure, a bake-up, or simply quality time with loved ones, I find joy in making memories, being kind, and enjoying every moment life has to offer.

I am really easy going and will always put children first. I understand the importance of raising/looking after kids, so whatever the parent/s advise me to teach/enforce I will do also if necessary! Specifically I help my brother who is a single Dad, so I have worked closely with my niece by helping him out some days over the years. Thus, I love to help other parents who need me and build connections with other families as I love the reward of knowing I am making a difference. I have worked with the same family through another agency for the past 2 years, initially during the week and weekends, now it is just Saturdays. (Experience includes: pickup/drop-off to and from school, light housework duties including laundry, kitchen tidiness, unloading dishwasher/putting away, clean-up after kids, make kids beds and ensure room is tidy, take kids to activities and usually join in myself, lots of at-home activities, putting to bed, getting them ready for school etc.,) Thanks for reading and I hope to chat soon! :)
