Babysitters in Preston, VIC

I’m a warm, caring and reliable nanny with experience working with three families in Austria. I built lasting relationships with children ranging from 1–6 years old, and loved being part of their everyday lives. I enjoyed everything from kindergarten pick-ups and routines to trips to the zoo and aquarium. I cared for the children in both English and German, and it was wonderful seeing their English improve while we spent time together. I’m patient, responsible and genuinely enjoy creating a fun, safe and nurturing environment for children.

And all of that in one family: I started taking care of a 6 months old baby until she was 7 years old and had an additional brother. During Covid I was a full-time nanny, which gave me insight to what it means to take care of a child on a daily basis. In addition, I worked as a teacher for primary and secondary school students for several years and am more than happy to tutor your child!

Hi, I’m Amber! Originally from Cornwall, UK, I’ve been living in Melbourne since 2022 with my partner. I am looking for casual babysitting or regular Friday nannying, as I miss the creativity and fun that comes from spending time with little ones. I started babysitting at 14 (for neighbours, family friends, my parent's colleagues) - probably a bit young in retrospect, but 'twas the done thing of the 2010's! - and have cared for children of all ages since. Many moons ago, when I was 19, I worked full time as a live-in Au Pair for an 18 month and 3-year-old in Albert Park, Melbourne, and was a babysitter for a lot of other parents in the area. During this time: 🌻I was responsible for taking the kids to kinder, day care, and playgroups 🌻Constantly on the lookout for fun, educational and exciting activities in Albert Park and beyond! 🌻Kept the house clean and tidy 🌻Made dinners for the whole family, breakfast and lunches for the kids 🌻Managed the washing machine and ironing board 🌻Helped the parents with other ad-hoc duties I also regularly minded my brother’s kids from birth (until I moved to Aus). I have a valid Working With Children Check and police check. I'm creative, fun, and love engaging kids in imaginative play. I am always keen to be outdoors or chilling at home with games, baking, or crafts. My empathetic and caring nature helps children feel safe, understood, and supported. I’d love to be a trusted helper for your family! I am 30, work part-time for an ACCO, and am training to become a certified yoga instructor. I am available on evenings, all day Fridays, and am open to weekend work. My rate is negotiable for longer hours. Please feel free to message me, I'm very responsive. Look forward to speaking to you! ✨ Please note Sept 26: Most of my paid babysitting was over 10 years ago, so referrals may be tricky to obtain.

Hi my name is Matilda, I value time outdoors in nature, making/viewing art, reading, sewing, photography and time spent with friends and family. I have a strong work ethic and am committed to providing the best quality care. I am a trustworthy, dependable, consistent, flexible and empathetic individual, who has good communication and interpersonal skills. I value my experiences babysitting and have always done my best to cater to each childs needs and support their development. In my experiences I worked alongside their parents to ensure I understood their routines and provided a supportive and stable environment. I have also been doing work as an NDIS disability support worker, helping my client to reach their goals and supporting them as they do so, this position requires patience, empathy and the ability to adapt. Also during my experiences in customer service I have enjoyed meeting new people from all walks of life. Working in and studying Conservation and Land Management is also a passion of mine, during which I have learnt important skills such as self-management, teamwork, problem-solving and adaptability/ flexibility. While I worked in environmental education and conservation, I was required to display a willingness to work in different environments, remain fit and healthy, keep updated with rules and regulations and work with diverse people. All of which I believe will help me be a great baby sitter.
