My goal is simple — build confidence, ensure safety, and create a positive experience for both children and parents.

Hey Family, My name is Cynthia, I’m 26 years old and I’ve been living in Melbourne for the past 11 months. For nine of those months, I worked as an au pair, caring for a three-year-old boy and a five-year-old girl. During my time as an au pair, I was responsible for getting the children ready in the mornings, preparing meals and lunchboxes, doing school and kindergarten pick-ups, planning activities, and supporting their evening routine, including bath time and putting them to bed. I became very confident managing daily routines and creating a structured but loving environment. I truly love spending time with children. I enjoy being outdoors with them — going to playgrounds, exploring nature, playing soccer, or simply going for walks. I also love doing creative activities like painting, crafting, and building things together. 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. I would absolutely love the opportunity to meet you and your children and see if we are a good fit. Looking forward to hearing from you! Kind regards, Cynthia

Hi lovely families, Welcome to my profile ☺️ 🌸 I'm a young at heart mature woman with a beautiful independent 30 year old son. 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 have had my car licence for decades & 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 there! My name is Brydie-Leigh, I am 20 years old, I was born and raised on the Gold Coast and was studying a Bachelor of Veterinary Science at The University of Queensland until I recently moved to Melbourne to embark on an exciting new journey in my life - I am now studying a Bachelor of Biomedicine at the University of Melbourne. I absolutely adore everything about babysitting, from the laughter and joy of playtime to the moments of comfort and care when they need a reassuring hug. I understand how important it is to create a warm, friendly environment for kids so my goal is always to make sure your children feel comfortable and happy, so they look forward to spending time with their babysitter, rather than dreading their parents departure. Building a strong, trusting relationship with each child is really important to me, and I'm extremely focused on fostering a safe, fun, and supportive space where your kids can feel right at home. I also ran a tutoring business of my own so I am capable of assisting in tutoring activities after school included in babysitting.
