Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi Families! 🩷 My name is Willow, I’m an 19 year-old nanny based in Belgrave South and I’m currently looking to take on a beautiful new family for either part-time, casual or ongoing care throughout the week 🌸 I’ve been nannying and babysitting for over 2 years now and have experience with children ranging from newborns right through to around 8 years old. Over the past year I’ve been caring for a family with three children aged 4, 5 and 7, and before that I cared for two little boys from the time one was only a newborn 🥹 Being able to grow with families and become someone their children feel safe, excited and comfortable around is honestly the most rewarding thing ever to me. I know I’m young, but I truly think that’s one of the reasons kids connect with me so naturally 🤍 I bring a really fun, energetic and comforting “big sister” kind of presence into a home while still being responsible, calm and nurturing when needed. I love getting involved in all the little things kids enjoy — whether that’s dancing in the kitchen, building cubby houses, playground adventures, baking, crafts, movie nights or just sitting on the floor playing for hours 🫶🏼 I also really understand that children have huge emotions in tiny little bodies. I’ve sat through the toddler meltdowns over the wrong coloured cup, the overtired tears, the big feelings after school and the moments where they simply just need patience, comfort and someone safe beside them. I never believe in making children feel silly for their emotions and always try to approach situations with calmness, understanding and reassurance 🌿 I’m very confident with all day-to-day routines including school pick-ups/drop-offs, bedtime routines, baths, dinner prep, bottles, nappy changes, homework help and keeping little ones entertained in ways that are fun but still supportive for their development ✨ I’m also very reliable, organised and happy to help wherever I can around the house to make life easier for parents — whether that’s tidying up after the kids, preparing meals, folding washing or helping keep routines running smoothly 🤍 I have my own reliable car (brand new MG SUV), am confident transporting children and am happy to travel for the right family. I can also provide references from previous families upon request 🥰 If I sound like someone who could be a lovely fit for your family I would absolutely love to chat further! Please feel free to send me a message anytime 💌

I am currently completing a Bachelor of Commerce degree at Deakin University, majoring in finance and minoring in accounting.With a strong work ethic and a genuine interest in corporate finance and equity markets. Over the past four years working at Hungry Jack’s, I have developed solid communication skills, reliability, and the ability to work effectively under pressure in a busy, team-based environment. I have also gained practical problem-solving experience through private babysitting work, where I was required to make responsible decisions independently and manage unexpected situations. I am now looking to continue building experience, further develop my skills, and contribute positively in a new workplace.I provided responsible care for the children, demonstrating trustworthiness and reliability. I also had to manage their schedules, meal preparation, and when encountered an issue, i would have to problem-solve independently.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi parents! I'm a 22-year-old who loves spending time engaging kids in arts, crafts, reading, writing, and organizing free and structured play. I currently work in OSHC on a couple days among kids aged 3 to 11. We make sure they're well fed and plan activities meant to bring out their best potential! Being able to keep them occupied, even if that means just doing nothing and striking up a conversation out of anything, without them even realizing Mum and Dad haven't picked them up yet, is the most satisfying feeling at the end of each day. That's when I realized what rapport meant. I would describe myself as funny and someone who can think of things on the spot while maintaining the best safety standards.
