Babysitters in Nayook, VIC

Hi! At the moment I have just completed a course for assisting kids in early childhood and at the primary age. I am an experienced, caring, creative and imaginative person who simply loves kids. I have two much younger siblings who I help raise and teach. I love crafts, creative games and spending time outdoors. I also love teaching and have had a lot of experience with kids in a variety of positions eg. acrobatics coach, kids camp leader, homeschool group coordinator, Sunday school teacher, babysitting roles etc.

I am a mature and capable nanny and educator with 30 years experience in childcare. I have worked with diverse families in NZ and in Australia, and am a passionate advocate of children's literature as an ex-children's librarian. I'm currently seeking casual babysitting work near the Yarra Valley or Lilydale area.

I am a reliable, caring, and experienced babysitter with over 5 years of experience in Early Childhood Development (ECD) and hands-on childcare. I am also a mother of three, which has strengthened my practical understanding of children’s needs, routines, safety, and emotional wellbeing. I hold all the required and up-to-date documentation, including Police Clearance, Working With Children Check, and First Aid certification. I am confident in providing safe, nurturing, and engaging care for children of different ages. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth through age-appropriate activities, play-based learning, and positive guidance. I am patient, trustworthy, and attentive, with a strong focus on child safety, hygiene, and wellbeing. I am also comfortable assisting with daily routines such as meals, bedtime, homework support, and light household duties related to childcare. I am dependable, flexible, and committed to providing quality care while giving parents peace of mind

Hi there 😊 Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I genuinely love spending time with children, and I've worked with all ages. From newborns to teenagers. I’ve had a lot of experience with babies and toddlers so I'm very comfortable and confident with feeding, bathing, changing, and bedtime routines. My style is warm hearted, kind, patient, nurturing and loving. I practice meditation and mindfulness which flows through to my work and allows me to maintain peace and calm when faced with challenges. I am encouraging and enthusiastic with children, which allows them to blossom and shine in their own unique ways. I also love working with neurodivergent people and am currently working part time as a disability support worker. I have my own ABN and insurance that covers all aspects of my work in both the disability support work and nannying/babysitting sectors. I generally invoice through my business but I'm happy to discuss employment terms for more long-term roles as well. I love being outdoors and an average day with me usually includes a walk to the local park, nature reserve, cafe, or at the very least a run around the backyard. I also enjoy outings to the Collingwood Children's Farm, Scienceworks, the Museum, the local Library and many more adventures when time permits. I've worked as an au pair in France, a volunteer teacher in Nepal, and a nanny and babysitter in Melbourne for over 10 years. I have a reliable car with lots of room for kids seats, I'm willing to travel and I can provide solid references. I've also had a lot of last minute bookings so I'm very comfortable just jumping in with families I'm meeting for the first time! Thank you, I look forward to hearing from you and wish you all the best in finding that perfect nanny or babysitter to suit your family.

I do casual relief teaching and I am available for casual babysitting. I have 15 years experience caring for children from babysitting at homes, working in creche, vacation care programs and teaching in a variety of primary schools.
