Babysitters in Kooyong, VIC

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 red provisional drivers license, a WWCC, and I’m in the process of obtaining my first aid certificate ☺️

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.

Hi There! I am Issy a recent high-school graduate eager to start a babysitting 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.

For me, it’s important that children feel safe, understood, and happy, while also having fun and learning through play. I would describe myself as warm, patient, responsible, and reliable. I build strong bonds with children and genuinely care about their wellbeing and development. I am also flexible and always happy to support families where needed.
