Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello! My name is Lucia Pegler, I’m 18 years old and currently studying a Bachelor of Nutrition Science (Scholars Program) at Monash University, with the goal of completing my Masters in Dietetics in the future ☺️ I graduated from Melbourne Girls College with a 93 ATAR, where I studied from Years 7–12. I had such a positive experience there and loved meeting people from all different cultures and walks of life, which helped shape me into a friendly, caring and open-minded person. Alongside my studies, I was an aerobic gymnast for five years and competed nationally for four consecutive years. I was also team captain for two years, which helped me develop strong leadership, teamwork and communication skills from a young age. Aerobics taught me discipline, commitment, resilience and how to work well with others in both team and individual environments. I have babysitting experience caring for both boys and girls aged 6–11, however I believe I am suitable for children of all ages! I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and creating a fun, safe and supportive environment where they feel comfortable and cared for ❤️ My experience has included helping with homework, preparing meals and snacks, cooking, cleaning, tidying play areas and bedrooms, bedtime routines, school pick-ups, keeping children entertained with activities, and helping families with day to day organisation around the home. I’m always happy to lend a hand wherever needed and pride myself on being responsible, patient and reliable. I’m a warm, trustworthy and easy-going person who communicates well with both children and parents. I love building positive relationships with families and bringing a calm, caring and positive energy into the home. I have my WWCC, and I’m in the process of obtaining my first aid certificate ☺️

Looking for: Casual Babysitting

Hi There! I am Issy a recent high-school graduate eager to start a babysittint role. Over the years I have developed a genuine passion for taking care of kids or anyone in general. As to why I plan on studying Nursing next year. Growing up in a large family has given me plenty of hands-on experience looking after my cousins, from keeping them entertained to helping with daily routines. I've learned how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to each child's individual needs. Although, they are my family members I have also been exposed throughout high school mentoring younger kids through my Sport and Recreation studies. Alongside, growing up next to a park where I would take care of my fellow neighbors and play with them. I find that I bring my own challenges into different situations, but this has actually helped me grow into a more adaptable and understanding person. Depending on each child’s personality and needs, I’m able to adjust my approach and support them in a way that works best for them. Thank you, for taking the moment to read my application.

Hi, my names Beth Lansfield! I am a 19 year old girl who graduated from Carey Baptist Grammar School last year and am currently studying Criminology and Psychological Science at Deakin University. I am a very friendly, socialable and easy going person who loves kids and collaborating with others. I have a lot of experience working with children. I was a Nanny for 2 boys aged 3 and 5 for the first 6 months of 2025 and my role was to look after them for 10 hours twice a week. I played with them, created activities for us to do together, cleaned the house and drove them to various places. I currently am a Nanny for a family with 3 kids aged 1, 3 and 5 and I look after them twice a week for 4 hours each day. I tidy the house, do laundry, vacuum, as well as any other household tasks that are required. I also play games with the kids and help to care for them. I also have experience babysitting a 7 month old baby. Both Nannying/Babysitting jobs gave me experience with changing Nappies, feedings and making breakfast/lunch/dinner/snacks, and nap time routines. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends, walking my dog Benny and spending time in nature. I am a very creative person and love being creative with kids! I would love the opportunity to offer my support to a family!

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi lovely families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ 🌸 I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful independent 30 year old son. I'm very fit & go to Pilates classes twice a week & also walk daily & enjoy dog-walking too for some clients. I have a positive, upbeat & engaging personality. I was a School Captain & have the ability to get along with all types of people. I have done some voluntary work for Single Family camps creating programs for children at these camps & I was responsible for keeping babies, toddlers & even teens occupied while giving Mum or Dad some much needed respite. This was a fantastic experience & I resided at these 5 day camps solely to help out with the other camp leaders in a Voluntary capacity. I have also worked as a Swimming Teacher with the under 5's which I found very rewarding. In my last 14 years working as a Nanny I have cared for twins, multiple children (up to 8 at one time in total) & children with special needs such as autism, ADHD, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, asthma, diabetes, eczema & other challenging health conditions. I'm experienced with new born babies up to teens. I am trustworthy & reliable & known for being punctual. I'm a very good communicator. I’m hard-working, diligent, energetic & enthusiastic and a whole lot of fun! I have trained in nursing and paramedic studies. I have had extensive experience with babies and children dating back to the age of 9 when I babysat the neighbours children (including a couple of newborns!).... in total 15! I have always been mature & responsible beyond my years. I have been surrounded by children my whole life including my 4 younger siblings and 30 1st cousins! I was a mother figure to my 4 younger siblings as my mother was working full-time as a Nursing Sister & my father was away from home a lot in his job as an International Airline Captain. I have had a lot of responsibility thrust upon me from a very young age! I am Aunty to 13 nieces & nephews & am very close to them & we catch up on a regular basis. I enjoy the spontaneous and honest interaction that children provide and I find it immensely rewarding knowing that I am able to influence and help a child to learn and grow confidently. I'm fair with a gentle approach & can be firm while teaching boundaries. I believe all children require stability and need to know they are loved and lovable as a basic right. I never cease to be amazed at the lessons that children can teach us adults! I am inspired by the enthusiasm that children have when learning about the world around them. I tend to establish a good rapport with the young ones I care for which I find very rewarding. Children are so precious & truly a blessing to be cherished. Importantly I am pro-active with a 'can do' attitude & I have a keen eye for detail so nothing goes unnoticed! I am very safety-conscious so your childs welfare is of utmost importance to me at all times. I can be flexible with time & I am more than happy to work with you to suit you and your childrens ongoing needs. I also do pet-minding/house sitting (many years now since I was a young girl) & have had a dog walking/dog training business too so I'm comfortable with all types of pets. I love all animals. 🤗 *Important to know...... *I'm up to date (2025) with my Whooping Cough vaccination (pertussis)* I have had my car licence for 40 years & I'm a very cautious driver with a full licence & faultless record with Zero accidents & no demerits! I look forward to meeting you and your precious children. *My rate is dependent on time of day & number of children needing care. As per industry regulations my rate starts at $35-40 per hour & I prefer to work a minimum of 3 hours. As a tutor helping with homework my rate is the standard rate of $40 helping one student. Thank you. ☺️ *My most recent role involved caring for a newborn baby & his toddler brother which I really loved. Their Mum has written an excellent reference that is available for your perusal.* Thanks so much for reading. Have a lovely day! Sincerely Yours Fionna 🌸

Hi, my name is Maya. I grew up in Bangkok, Thailand and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and I am Malaysian-Sri Lankan. I have two older brothers, so I grew up in a close family environment. I am currently studying a Diploma in Early Childhood Education in Melbourne. And I currently work part-time at OHSC Camp Australia Before and after school Program. I have around 3 years of experience working with children through volunteering at my church Sunday school program, where I helped care for children aged 1–12 years every Sunday. In this role I supervised children, helped organise snack times, learning activities, games and crafts, and supported the children during lessons and play. I also helped teach Bible stories and activities that focused on values such as kindness, respect, empathy and helping others, and helped guide the children as they participated in these activities. Through my studies I am learning about child development, play-based learning, and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework (VEYLDF). These frameworks support children’s social, emotional, cognitive and physical development, helping them learn through play while building confidence and independence in a safe and supportive environment. I have a Working With Children Check and HLTAID012 – Provide First Aid in an Education and Care Setting certification. I am patient, responsible, reliable and attentive, and I enjoy helping with activities, homework, routines and creative play. I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident with who is caring for their children, and I always aim to create a safe, caring and supportive environment. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and see if I’m the right fit for your children!
