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

I am a caring and reliable babysitter currently studying my Certificate III in Early Childhood Education. With over two years of experience as a babysitter, teacher assistant, and volunteer in childcare, I have worked with children of different ages, from babies to school-aged. I enjoy creating engaging and safe environments where children can learn, play, and feel supported. Families describe me as patient, responsible, and warm, with strong communication skills.

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: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hi parents! My name is Aliyah, I am a 20 year old second-year uni student studying a Bachelor of Nursing at UTS. I have had previous babysitting experience with children ages 1.5 - 10 years old and have worked for 3 different families. I have also worked as a volunteer assistant at a school, working in the preschool and first grade for 2 years. During my time at the school, I learned that it is most important to immerse children in creativity and also involve them in tasks such as cooking and baking, which I have found promotes development. I also grew up in a house full of kids, as I have three nieces and one nephew who are between the ages of 1 - 5 that I frequently babysit. I can do laundry, house chores and cook meals. I am currently available 2 - 3 days a week and can work on weekends; however, my schedule is subject to change on certain days. Please feel free to contact me for additional details and relevant documents.
