Whether it's teaching, mentoring, or simply spending time with kids, i believes in creating a safe and supportive environment where children can thrive and reach their full potential. I have been a big part of many of my friends and families little ones lives. From comforting them , loving them, feeding then, watching movies, putting them to sleep ect. I have also done voluntary work with scope where I assisted and supported many young individuals with a range of disabilities. From basic fine motor skills, to recreational activities. I have also worked alongside primary school teachers one on one to assist students who may need extra support or who have slower development then others.

I'm an experienced 39 year old housing and homelessness worker who absolutely adores kids. I have years of full-time nannying experience for many wonderful families, however, I've recently made the move into social services. I have performed in professional children's theatre companies in Aus, NZ and Asia. I love to sing and play characters and if your child loves these things too, then I'm the carer for your family! I'm a big book-worm so encouraging story time and helping young people learn to read is a huge passion of mine. I'm also an arts and crafts nut so I have lots of ways to spend a rainy afternoon when we can't venture to the park. I have experience looking after all age ranges, including newborns, and I once single-handedly bathed, fed, read, sung to and tucked up 7 kids from 2 - 10 in one evening. I have a current Police Check, Working With Children Check, First Aid and Anaphylaxis certificates, a reliable car and a nannying and children's theatre CV that I can send. I'm happy to generally tidy kitchen and living areas as well as do children's washing and change bedding. I have cooked kid's meals in the past and I make great lunches which tick all the nutritional boxes. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello, my name is Kinjal Barot.

A little about me: I am a wife of 23 years and a proud mother to two wonderful sons, aged 15 and 21. My youngest is currently in Year 10, while my eldest is studying and working full-time. Both are highly independent young men. Twenty-two years ago, I discovered the Montessori philosophy and immediately fell in love with its holistic approach to education, independence, and respect for the child. I not only raised both of my sons using Montessori principles but also worked as a Montessori educator and teacher for over 21 years with children from birth to six years of age before relocating to Melbourne. Over the past 28 years, I have worked with children ranging from newborns to teenagers in both professional and personal capacities, including roles as a nanny, babysitter, au pair, family day care provider, Montessori teacher, and parent facilitator.

Hi there 😊 Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I genuinely love spending time with children, and I've worked with all ages. From newborns to teenagers. I’ve had a lot of experience with babies and toddlers so I'm very comfortable and confident with feeding, bathing, changing, and bedtime routines. My style is warm hearted, kind, patient, nurturing and loving. I practice meditation and mindfulness which flows through to my work and allows me to maintain peace and calm when faced with challenges.

I love being outdoors and an average day with me usually includes a walk to the local park, nature reserve, cafe, or at the very least a run around the backyard.

Hi! My name is Orvokki, and I am a 20-year-old woman who is currently studying music at UniMelb. I have worked as a piano and violin teacher since I was 13 years old, and I have many years of babysitting experience, so I have a lot of experience with children of all ages. I am warm and kind, enjoy being silly when appropriate, and believe that playfulness is essential for all humans, children and adults. I am originally from the country, but moved to the city to study. I grew up in Mansfield, then moved to Castlemaine as a teenager, and was educated in Steiner schools in both towns. Steiner education means a lot to me. Evidently, I love music, but I also adore pets and all kinds of animals, language learning, art and honestly anything else fun/creative. I believe I am a good balance of kind and loving yet firm and strong. I am excellent at problem-solving and think that communication is my biggest strength. Thanks for reading!
