Meet Danelle, a passionate and imaginative artist who brings creativity to everything she does. From her teenage years into her mid-20s, Danelle dedicated herself to babysitting, transforming childcare into an art form. Instead of relying on iPads or TV, she engages children in dynamic activities that let their imaginations run completely free. Her deep love for acting inspires her to create vibrant theater scenes with the kids, fostering pure joy and expression. When she isn't painting or drawing, Danelle connects with her artistic spirit by walking along the beach, reading captivating books, and losing herself in music. Danelle has worked for many years with the NDIS, assisting with art therapy programs and one on one with participants, helping to guide the clients to express themselves through art.

Hi, I’m Claudia! I have over 8 years of babysitting and nannying experience and have always genuinely loved working with children. I first started babysitting throughout high school for families I knew through friends, family and people in my local neighbourhood. After graduating high school and beginning my studies, I started nannying 2–3 days a week for a family with three girls, which gave me lots of experience caring for children and becoming a trusted part of their routine. I’m calm, reliable and caring, and I always try to create a fun, warm and comfortable environment for the children I’m looking after. I’m confident managing everyday routines including meals, homework, bath time, playtime and bedtime, and I really enjoy getting to know each child and understanding their individual personality and needs. I’ve cared for children from as young as 10 months, including children with additional needs. I now work full-time during the week, but I’m looking to get back into casual babysitting and nannying as I really miss it! I’m available for casual babysitting on weekday evenings after work, as well as during the day and evenings on weekends. References are available on request. Thank you! :)

Hi, my name is Auriane and I’m 24 years old. I come from France. I have many experience with childrens in france because I studied education so last years I was a Trainee teacher with childrens aged 7 to 9. I was also an au pair in Melbourne during 7 months, taking care of 3 childrens aged 7, 5 and 1.5. I was doing morning and evening routine, drops off and pick ups from school. Prepare lunch box and bags for school. During the holiday I had the older all day with me so I organized activities outside and inside.

Im an 18 year old student, located in Yarraville. Im energetic and love kids, I have pets of my own and am super comfortable caring for little fur babies as well.

With over a decade of experience caring for children and babies for elite families, my care and dedication have always been highly valued. I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to assist families and use my household management expertise to make life that little bit easier. In my recent roles as a high profile nanny, I encountered many challenges such as opposite sleep cycles (day sleep and night awake), dealing with ADHD and trouble integrating into a new country/school. These not only expanded my knowledge but made me grow as someone who prides themselves on creating a safe and nurturing environment. I am recognised as someone who is vastly adaptable to different household environments which is one of my strongest attributes. Being an attentive listener who always places the needs of the children first also makes me a favourite with the kids. These skills I have accrued over the years have enabled me to successfully take control of various situations and ensure the wellbeing of the children maintaining peace within the home. I am delighted about the possibility of working with your family and am confident in my ability to contribute to the child’s daily life.
