Looking for: Full-time,Part-time,Casual Babysitting

In 2008 I came to Australia from Brazil to study English and Business at the Business College CBD and faculty of education and social work. 
 I am committed, polite and respectful of people's time and personal space. I'm punctual and always pay attention to different styles of parenting, as it helps me to be the best nanny I can be. I am passionate about the world of children and enjoy art, colouring, reading children's books and watching children's films. I have watched with a 36 month read one of Sesame Street’s story books in a rhythmic sing-song way. Children are highly inspirational; us adults can learn a lot by simply watching them play. I am able to cook and I love to cook great meals as soup heath snacks and nutritious meals. Ideally, I'm looking for a permanent position but will consider casual or part-time work. I have excellent references and will provide them upon request. Please feel free to contact me +61 448 326 975 Kind Regards Bella

Bonjour! My name is Océane, I'm 29 and I'm from France 🇫🇷 I am currently a nanny for a 11 month old lovely baby boy 4 days a week in Chatswood (I know him since his 3 month old) and for a 2 year old lovely girl once a week in Alexandria. I will be available all day on Wednesdays and for occasional afternoon, evening or weekend babysitting. I am going to start studying Early Childhood Éducation and Care in July 2026 and I am so excited about that! I was a nanny in Wellington, NZ for 1 year and work for some wonderful families! I was looking after an adorable 1 year old girl 3 days a week and a 2 and half year old boy the other 2 days of the week. Occasionally, I was looking after his little sister who was born in December 2024 and whom I have been watching develop since she was born. I was also a nanny for a 1 year old boy last year in full time. I have also done occasional and regular babysitting for children aged 6 month to 9 during weekends and evenings. I was an au pair in the United States for a year and a half. My first year was in Seattle, WA, where I looked after 3 children aged 5 months, 2 and a half years and 6 and a half years when I arrived. I then spent 6 months with another family in New York, where I looked after a little girl who was 7 months old when I arrived. It was an extraordinary experience and I learnt a lot! I did a lot of baby-sitting while I was studying. I've also babysat for several families with children of all ages, from 5 months to 12 years. I've always loved children and sharing time and activities with them. Looking forward to hear from you, A bientôt 😊
