Hello! My name is Hero (female), I’m 20 and am currently studying a Bachelor of Arts degree. I have had 4 years babysitting experience and am also the eldest of 4 children, so I have been looking after children almost my whole life! I am very responsible and have great fun keeping children entertained and safe. I love music, the outdoors and reading so am happy to share my hobbies with any kids who are interested! My availability is flexible around my studies and am very keen to help out. Message me for any more details or any questions

Hi, I'm Jenna! I'm 32 years old and work in the non-profit sector. Over the years, I've had lots of experience babysitting and nannying, both in Australia and the UK (where I lived for two years). I've cared for toddlers who need help with nappy changes and bath time, as well as older kids who enjoy fun activities and homework support. Previously, I worked as a registered nurse for three years, specialising in women's health and neonatal intensive care. I also have over four years of experience as a personal carer, supporting people with disabilities such as muscular dystrophy, paraplegia, and autism. This means I'm confident in handling first aid, injury care, and assisting with daily tasks like food preparation and showering. Since I now work from home, I’m looking for casual or part-time babysitting as a way to connect with families and spend time with kids. I truly enjoy getting to know children, learning about their personalities, and engaging them in creative and stimulating activities. Some of my favorite hobbies include arts and crafts, bike riding, and reading—things I’d love to share with the kids I care for! I’m happy to help with light housework, and I can provide a Police Check and references upon request. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! 😊

Hi, my name is Maya. I live in North Melbourne - Kensington. I am studying a Bachelor of Food and Nutrition at La Trobe University. I have had lots of experience in the past babysitting. I've previously worked with various families from newborns to 13 years old. But I have also grown up with a huge family so I'm constantly surrounded by little cousins and kids. I have always loved playing and interacting with kids so nannying/babysitting seems like a fitting job :) My hobbies and interests are sports, exercise, water-skiing and just spending time with friends and family. I also have my license and happy to help out with cleaning and jobs around the house.

Hi, I’m Jen!! I’m a student at ACU currently and love children, having grown up with three active younger brothers. I have experience with caring for children with autism and Tourette’s disease, alongside all ages. I love to stay organised and be active with your little ones!! I am a non smoker and do not use any kind of recreational drugs.

Hi there Mums & Dads.... I am your Mary Poppins!! I currently look after a few families however my calendar has opened for either a Wednesday OR a Thursday for a new family in 2025. I commit to long hour and long term commitment for the year with all of my families. It's important. Currently I cover ages 8 months, 12 months, 2.5 years, 4.5 years and 9 & 11 years olds. I understand the variety of changing developments in children and adapt to these needs. I love children and have looked after them across many stages of my entire life, as a local babysitter since I was 14 years old and up until now as a professional nanny for parents who are doctors, solicitors, engineers, school teachers, marketing specialist and even a CEO. Having a person of a mature age can provide some enormous benefits to both parents and children. I know life well and in very deeply different ways. I have an extensive understanding of the impact a moment or day in time can have on a child. Being there to pick up on these signals is very important. Recognising and sensing these subtle shifts need an awareness that comes with human development, of which I have covered extensively. Keeping a child calm and happy is important and to have skills that remove the stress and anxiety is about the energy from the nanny/babysitter. To become relaxed and connected/engaged with a mature age carer can offer great comfort to any child. The love will always be there. I follow routines and set boundaries, (initiated from the parents) for all children because it creates security and trust with them. I participate in both home and outdoor activities and excursions. I can drive my own car (petrol charges incur) or use any parents' cars. I cover household cleaning (light house work: all things kids mess, upkeep where possible in the laundry area, keep kitchen clean) to take the burden away from parents so they can come home to a cleaner environment than perhaps they left it. This is always discussed in detail for any family because I am not a 'house cleaner' I am a Nanny. I am extremely reliable and punctual to enable all parents to relax knowing I will always be there for them. I look forward to hearing from you. Nanny Clare

I am from turkey. I am here for language education but my english level is enough for communication. I am good with kids

Hi! my name is Ailiany and I'm a foreign student willing to work as something that i really like, Although I don’t have extensive professional babysitting experience due to my age, I have a deep passion for working with children. I regularly care for my younger cousin, where I’ve gained valuable experience in looking after their needs, creating fun activities, and ensuring their safety and happiness. Additionally, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for a short period, where I taught children about health and wellness. This experience further developed my ability to engage children in educational activities, manage a classroom, and support their growth. I am patient, creative, and reliable, and I’m excited to bring my love for children and my hands-on experience to provide excellent care for your little ones.

Hey there, I’m McKayla! 🌟 I’m currently studying for my CHC50121 Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care and have been working at an early childhood center since April 2024. I absolutely love being with children, and their safety is always my top priority. I’m passionate about creating a joyful, nurturing, and safe environment where children can thrive. Last year, I worked permanently with the 2-3-year-old age group, and my commitment to fostering a warm and engaging learning environment led to my recognition as “The Rising Star of the Year”—an award voted on by the management team for exceptional growth and potential. This year, I transitioned to the nursery room, further expanding my experience in early childhood development. I’m excited about the opportunity to become a nanny and bring my skills and energy to a family that values a loving and responsible caregiver. If you’re looking for someone dedicated, enthusiastic, and caring, I’d love to chat more! Let me know if this sounds like a good fit for your family!
