Nannies in Darlinghurst, NSW

Hi, I’m Alice. I’m originally from England and have a background in childcare alongside previous professional experience as a GIS Analyst and environmental consultant. I currently work as an OSHC educator, supporting children with after-school routines, activities, and supervision. Prior to this, I worked as an au pair in Sydney, caring for three boys aged 6 to 14, and have built up over seven years of experience working with children in both seasonal and long-term roles. I’m confident caring for children of all ages and am experienced in managing daily routines, assisting with homework, and creating a safe, engaging environment. I’m also happy to help with light household tasks, including cooking, tidying, and general organisation. I hold an Australian driver’s licence, a valid Working With Children Check, police check, paediatric first aid certificate, and a food safety handling certificate. I would describe myself as reliable, adaptable, and approachable. I am able to be calm and reassuring when needed, while also bringing energy and fun to activities depending on each child’s personality and needs.

AVAILABLE THURSDAY AND FRIDAY! (+ occasional babysitting) Bonjour families, My name is Océane, I am 29 years old and originally from France. I am currently available on Thursdays and Fridays and looking for a long-term nanny position with a warm and trusting family. After completing a Master’s degree in Business Management with a specialization in Tourism, I worked in project management and corporate sales before deciding to follow my passion for working with children. I have been babysitting regularly since I was 18 years old, always alongside my studies, which has given me many years of consistent, hands-on experience with children of different ages. I then spent a year and a half in the United States as an au pair, where I cared for three children (5 months, 2.5 years, and 6.5 years old at the time of my arrival) for one year, and then for a 7-month-old baby in another family for six months. This experience was incredibly enriching and sparked my strong interest in child development. I then moved to New Zealand for 15 months, where I worked as a nanny for three main families, caring for children between 1 and 2 years old. One of the 2-year-olds welcomed a baby sister, giving me the opportunity to care for a newborn and support her development until she was 5 months old. I am now based in Sydney, where I continue to work as a nanny and babysitter for wonderful families. I currently work Mondays to Wednesdays with a little boy who was 4 months old when I started. I also cared for a 2-year-old girl who now attends daycare five days a week, though I still do her pickups at the beginning of the week. I will begin studying Early Childhood Education and Care in mid-May, as I am planning to build my long-term career in this field, ideally becoming a Play Therapist or working in education. I am caring, reliable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can grow, learn, and thrive. I make it a priority to take children outdoors every day and organize engaging activities such as playgroups, museum visits, music classes, library trips, and other fun and educational experiences suited to their age and interests. I would be happy to provide my CV and references upon request. I would love to find a family with whom I can build a strong and lasting relationship. I look forward to hearing from you. A bientôt, Oceane

I love cooking, staying active, helping others and families, organising and being outdoors. I would describe myself as really adaptable, great at taking initiative, caring, friendly, warm and outgoing.
