Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hello! My name is Claudia, and I am a very passionate young professional looking for part time nanny work. I graduated with a Bachelor of Psychology with Honours from RMIT in 2021, currently completing my Masters in Cultural Studies at the University of Sydney. I am so incredibly passionate about early childhood, and believe those young years are the most integral in ones life. I consider myself to be extremely caring, patient, and fun, but am also reliable, and flexible. I would also consider myself a creative. I play/write music, and also enjoy arts and crafts. Previously I worked for a family with 2 children, a 2 year old and a new born baby boy, for almost 2 years from 2019-2021. I then found employment as a youth social worker, working with young people between the ages of 12-25 experiencing difficult circumstances in life. I really loved this role and learnt so much, however I feel most passionate about working with younger children and would love to return to this work. Currently; I teach psychology at university during the semesters. I can provide references and answer any questions you have! Thank you so much for your consideration!

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

I am a 29 year old writer from Sydney, currently living in Petersham. I have extensive experience in childcare, including casually babysitting for some local families and previously part time nannying for a family with 3 boys (2, 6 and 9) and another family with a daughter (18 months) and two sons (3 and 5). I am available to do before/after school (or daytime for the little ones!) help during the week, as well as ad hoc weekend and weeknight evening care. I really enjoy spending time with kids and am a very patient and outgoing person! I am comfortable with doing some household chores such as cleaning and cooking, and am open to walking pets if needed. I have experience in tutoring students from kindergarten to Year 10 so am more than able to help with homework.

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi! I’m Izzy, I’m 18 and currently on a gap year, looking for babysitting opportunities. I’ve always genuinely loved being around kids, and over the years I’ve gained a lot of experience babysitting for family friends and families in my local area. It’s something I really enjoy and feel comfortable doing. I’d describe myself as easygoing, friendly, and responsible. I like creating a fun and relaxed environment where kids feel safe, happy, and able to be themselves. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing games, getting creative, or just sticking to their usual routines, I’m always happy to help out in whatever way is needed. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their kids with someone, so I always make sure to be reliable, attentive, and caring. I’m really looking forward to meeting new families and becoming someone both you and your kids can trust and feel comfortable with!

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

I’m Elyn, a warm, patient and reliable nanny based in Petersham. With experience as a babysitter, teacher assistant and volunteer in orphanages, I’ve cared for children of all ages — from tiny babies to curious toddlers and school-aged kids. Childcare has always been a meaningful part of my life. I love creating calm, engaging and safe spaces where children feel supported, valued and free to explore. Families describe me as nurturing, responsible and very communicative. My approach is grounded in respect, empathy and positive guidance — always following each child’s rhythm, needs and personality. I’m also studying Early Childhood Education, which helps me bring fresh, development-focused ideas into my work. I’m comfortable with pets and happy to assist with light household tasks to make your day easier. My goal is simple: to care for your little ones with the same love, patience and intention that I would want for my own future children.

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

My name is Fabiola (Fabi). I am an Australian Citizen (I have lived in Sydney most of my life and intend to continue residing in Sydney). I have a current Working with Children Check and First Aid & CPR Certification. I am fully vaccinated against COVID 19 as well as against flu and whooping cough. I do not drive, but am very adept at travelling with babies and children on Public Transport. I have a University of Sydney Bachelor of Arts (Honours in Education) degree with a triple major: Psychology/Education/Mathematics (my favourite subject being Developmental Psychology). I have extensive experience as a nanny, babysitter and tutor: positions I have always thoroughly enjoyed. I believe that ensuring children's safety, and respecting them and listening to them is of utmost importance. I have loved and been fascinated by children ever since I can remember. Since I was 15, I have provided both paid and non-paid childcare: I have a natural aptitude for facilitating children's learning in a fun way. I love caring for babies; it is a privilege to be there when they are learning so much: the world we tend to take for granted is so brand new to them …. I delight in the "purity" of children and their behaviour. And when their behaviour is ah… beyond the pale, I take deep breaths and somehow tend to keep my cool! I am a good communicator, mature, trustworthy, honest, reliable, nurturing, compassionate, loving, patient, friendly, kind, humorous, easygoing, proactive, energetic, and creative. I care very much for nature and the environment, enjoy a healthy life style (e.g. I do not smoke) and am very affectionate with pets. I put my all into the babies, toddlers and children under my care. I positively impact their lives: being a good role model, seizing the opportunities that present themselves to further their development and education, having fun with them, and being there for them as they face life's challenges. I also provide solid support for the parents. So, if you need a nanny, babysitter, educator or tutor who a) absolutely loves interacting with babies (including newborns), toddlers and children, b) is passionate and knowledgeable about childhood development and teaching, and c) loves to feel like a part of the family, well, here I am!

Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

I’m currently studying a Bachelor of Media & Communications at the University of Sydney and living at college, which keeps me busy and deeply engaged in a vibrant community. Alongside my studies, I’m gaining industry experience through my internship at a PR and marketing agency, where I’ve been developing strong organisational and communication skills. Beyond that, I’ve always had a genuine passion for working with kids. With over 4 years of experience babysitting and nannying children aged 1–13, I’ve built a reputation for being reliable, punctual, and proactive. Growing up as the youngest of four siblings (with three older brothers!) taught me independence and responsibility early on—I often managed the household and quickly learned how to balance care with structure. I hold a driver’s licence and police check, and I now have more flexibility in my schedule to dedicate time to families who need ongoing support. On top of childcare, I also offer tutoring in primary and high school subjects, drawing on my academic background—achieving academic honours and top Band 6 results in my HSC through persistence and hard work.
