I have 2 nieces and 1 nephew. I absolutely adore them. i also work with kids on a Friday at my work at Andrew Kerr Aged Care, and work with the kids too.

I have raised my own two children and worked in a variety of different workplaces. With my gentle and calm nature, I am able to engage with children well, using creativity and responding to their interests and needs. Please message me on 0400154910 to discuss your babysitting and occasional child care needs and I hope that I can be the right person to support your family!

I am a compassionate, organized, and a hardworking professional, with significant experience in the childcare industry. I have over 10 years experience as both a nanny and childcare worker in the past and current kinder teacher My career to date has given me the opportunity to work with various families, where I gained vital skills that were transferable across each family I worked with. Throughout my 10 years of childcare I have been able to gain skills and knowledge and build memorable relationships with families. As a people person by nature, I thrive off the relationships I am able to cultivate with not only the children, but the parents as well. I find immense gratification in my field of work, and eagerly await the opportunity to hit the ground running in the next chapter of my career.

Hi, I’m Emily! I would love the opportunity to work with your family and care for your children whenever needed. My consistent availability is: • Weekdays from 3pm < for Mornington peninsula jobs, 4-5pm for outside the peninsula due to travel time • Most weekends Note: I may also have some weekdays avaliable if my work schedule changes. I’ve been babysitting casually since I was about 15, with around four years of consistent experience. I’ve cared for children aged 6 months to 11 years, including children who are neurodivergent (ASD & ADHD). I love drawing, crafts, games, dancing around, reading books, and anything involving imaginative or messy play. I always aim to create a fun, safe, and engaging environment. I live in Somerville with 3pets so I’m very pet friendly. In the spirit of transparency, I wanted to mention that I do have plans to move overseas early July meaning I am unavailable from July onwards. As much as I would still love to be considered for any role I completely understand if this is a dealbreaker. My availability is as stated above until that date.

Hi there! My name is Molly and I am a 17 year old girl (turning 18 in May), with a strong passion for babysitting and caring for young minds. I have been doing casual jobs with regular families over the past 4 years, and can provide references. I used to live in the snow on Mount Buller, where with a friend we ran a small babysitting business and worked the entire season developing our skills on working and playing with children ranging from ages 0-12yrs. Since then my knowledge of looking after young kids has only grown and there is nothing I enjoy doing more as a job. I would love the opportunity to continue my journey of babysitting and be honoured to take on the role of catering for any child.

After studying early childhood education for a couple of years I decided to change track and focus on postpartum support, which I am currently studying. Being able to support parents from the beginning feels super important to me, so that they may continue on feeling capable, supported and energised. I find nannying to be a satisfying combination of my previous work in early childhood and being of greater support to the family as a whole. I have experience working with infants through to 12 year olds and currently work part-time at Baby Spa Australia with lots of beautiful bubbas and their families. Please feel free to reach out for a chat if I sound like a good fit for you and your family.

Hello, I’m hoping to connect with a family looking for a nanny or babysitter during the week. Whether that’s help with school drop offs and pick ups, or for daytime care. Alongside working with children, I’m also an acupuncturist and run my own practice from home, so I’m looking for something that balances in with this nicely during the week. I’m a calm, warm person who loves nature and creativity, and I bring that gentle energy into the way I care for kids. I’ve previously worked as a dance teacher, and have many years of babysitting and nannying experience. Recently I've also become an aunty, which I absolutely love. Spending time with my nieces and nephews is a joy. I have a reliable car and able to provide day to day home support, such as cleaning and preparing meals. If you feel like this could be a good fit, I’d love to connect.

Hi. I’m a solo mum to a wonderful, bright, happy, charismatic and well-rounded 16yo girl and have enjoyed raising her immensely. I’m always told I’m great with kids.

I love music, outdoor activities and happy to do household chores and look after pets.
