Babysitters in Preston, VIC

I am a caring and responsible 20-year-old with extensive experience looking after children and supporting families. As the eldest sibling with two younger brothers, I have always taken on a nurturing role, ensuring they are well cared for and supported. In addition, I frequently look after my younger cousins, aged from 6 months to 4 years old, which has further developed my skills in managing children of different ages and meeting their unique needs. This experience has made me confident in handling everything from bottle-feeding infants to keeping toddlers entertained and engaged in age-appropriate activities. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and fostering a safe, fun, and supportive environment for them. My maternal instincts and natural ability to connect with kids make me not only dependable but also someone children feel comfortable around. Alongside childcare, I am skilled at helping with household tasks, whether it’s tidying up after playtime, preparing light meals, or ensuring the home stays organised. I pride myself on being attentive, patient, and adaptable, qualities that allow me to meet the needs of both children and their parents. Whether you’re looking for someone to care for your little ones during the day, in the evenings, or on weekends, I am committed to providing the highest level of care and support.

Hi there! I am currently 23 years old, living independently in Thornbury and have graduated from RMIT (2023) studying a Bachelor of Criminology and Psychology. I am currently looking for casual babysitting opportunities before I start looking for roles in my career (in 2025/2026). I have previously looked after a family with 3 children (aged 8-13, from Feb-Dec 2022), and I am currently nannying for a family with 2 kids aged 10 & 12 (January 2024-current).

I hope to bring the things I have learnt in this role with me!

Hi, I’m Jemma, a 19-year-old with a passion for working with children! I graduated high school in 2023 and spent my gap year gaining valuable experience. For the past three years, I’ve worked at a gymnastics studio, teaching kids of all ages and running fun holiday programs.

Aside from being a housewife and parent to my two boys (aged 9 and 11), I do a lot of volunteer work at their school. I　finished Certificate IV in School Based Education Support. However, I do still have some spare time while my kids are at school, and I would love to spend it helping other mums who are having a hard time. I am very caring, patient, friendly and energetic. I don't like the idea of kids using screens, especially when they are at a young age, and so I've learned to be very creative and flexible when playing with kids.
