Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi parents, my name is Anna. I’m 21 years old and currently studying at Deakin University. I’ve been working consistently with children for over 3 years and have been babysitting casually since I was 16. I’m a nurturing, responsible, and energetic carer who genuinely enjoys helping children learn, grow, and have fun in a safe and supportive environment. I have experience with children aged 4 months to 12 years as well as neurodiverse children, and I’m confident managing a range of routines and activities. I’m also a competent driver, comfortable with pets, and happy to assist with light household tasks like cooking and cleaning. With a flexible university schedule, I’m currently looking for casual nannying opportunities and would love the chance to support your family.
