Babysitters in Mckinnon, VIC

Hello, My name is Zara and I’m an experienced babysitter-nanny-tutor-children's party entertainer, having spent much of my twenties caring for children of all ages; both part-time and full-time. Professionally, I’m a Head of Marketing, currently in between roles after taking some time off to travel, and I’m looking to take on part-time and casual babysitting while I job hunt. I genuinely love spending time with kids and bring a calm yet engaging energy to how I care for them. In my twenties, I worked as a children’s party entertainer so I’m confident with all age groups and know how to create fun and engaging experiences; whether that’s imaginative play, storytelling, or keeping things structured and organised. I’m naturally reliable, communicative, and very organised; I tend to slot easily into a household and keep things running smoothly. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks and meal prep. Outside of work, I love being outdoors and spend a lot of time in the kitchen cooking, baking, and fermenting; I enjoy sharing good food and creating a warm, relaxed environment. I’m based in McKinnon and happy to travel. I have not updated my WWC for a few years but can do so if required. Feel free to get in touch if you think I might be a good fit for your family. Cheers, Zara
