Hi, my name is Jess! I’m currently studying a Law and Psychology double degree at Monash University. I’ve always loved working with children and have built up a range of experience over the years. I started coaching basketball in middle school, working with my cousins prep boys team. I also coached a year 6 girls team from Year 10 to Year 12. These roles taught me patience, leadership, and how to adapt to different learning styles. For the past year, I’ve been coaching tennis at Melbourne Grammar School with students from prep to Year 4 on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. This position has helped me develop strong communication skills, creativity in keeping lessons engaging, and the ability to manage groups of young children in a fun and safe way. Alongside coaching, I’ve also been babysitting since I was 14, regularly looking after my five younger cousins (now aged 4–10). Babysitting has strengthened my responsibility, organisation, and problem-solving skills, as well as my ability to connect with kids on their level. Having recently graduated from St Leonard’s College, I now have more availability and am excited to continue building on my experience supporting and caring for children in fun and positive ways.

I'm an experienced nanny with a calm, professional approach. I am about to complete 9 months with my current family who I have been with since the twins were born. They are moving interstate so the role is coming to a natural end. I have secured a role nannying for Thursdays and Fridays but could potentially be free on Monday and/or Wednesday for a local role in Brighton. Apart from my current experience, I worked both as a live-in and live-out nanny in the UK, where I formed close, lasting relationships with the families and children in my care. I've also raised two children of my own, who are now young adults. Having been a working parent myself, I understand first-hand how much it matters to have a nanny who is reliable, consistent, and works in genuine partnership with the family. I take routines and parenting preferences seriously and bring both warmth and good judgment to everything I do. Earlier in my career I worked in complex HR roles, which has given me strong communication skills, discretion, and the ability to handle whatever a day throws at me with a level head. I have chosen to return to nannying because I genuinely enjoy working with children and supporting families. I hold a current Working with Children Check, a completed police check, up-to-date first aid certification, and am happy to provide references. We share our home with a border collie/golden retriever cross and a cat, so I'm very comfortable around pets and completely at ease in homes where animals are part of the family.

I am originally from the UK, and I have been in Australia for over a year. I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to work in such a beautiful country. My background is in early years, and I have been working with children since 2016 in various capacities. I am a bubbly, empathetic, caring individual, and I have a nurturing, enthusiastic approach to working with children. I like to create a positive, and calming environment for children to learn and grow within. I have worked as a teaching assistant with a child with additional needs, this gave me a lot of experience with adaptability and emphasised the need for a flexible approach to learning. I have been an au pair for three different families, working with children aged 6 months, up to 4 years old. I have cared for multiple children at one time, including caring for twins. I believe understanding the child’s routine within the home is a crucial part of helping families with their day to day lives. As I have volunteered for a family based charity, I understand how important it can be to have people to support families, especially in the early years. I have a wide range of skills, and I am eager to put them into practice. I have a strong work ethic, kindness, patience, and a strong passion for working with children. I am currently working as a barista part time, but i am looking for something more permanent within nannying. References available upon request.

I’m an energetic and bubbly person who has spent a lot of time nannying especially as I have 8 cousins under the age of 10. I am organised and am willing to help out in any way needed. I am willing to play and entertain children whether that’s activities or things they want to do.
