Hi! I’m Lauren, 30, originally from the UK and living in Sydney for 2.5 years on the pathway to PR. I have a strong professional background working with children and young people in residential care settings, with both extensive experience and formal education in this field. My focus has been on supporting young people in their day-to-day lives, encouraging independence, understanding developmental stages, and working towards positive outcomes. I’m trained in therapeutic care models and have solid knowledge of behaviour management, along with some experience in supporting neurodiverse children—though I understand this may not be relevant to every role. In addition to residential care, I’ve worked closely with families in more personal settings, including being an au pair for three families since living here, babysitting, and providing mothers help including household tasks such as laundry& folding, light cleaning/ tidying, errands, dog care, and meal prep. I’m currently in Part time employment but available for 1-2 days per week or occasional ad hoc support. I’ve worked with children aged 6months to 17, hold a full driver’s licence with my own car, and can provide references. I also have a UK police background check and hold a level 4 diploma in childcare. I’m confident in supporting families with all varieties of tasks and all age ranges of children.

MONDAYS NANNY AVAILABLE + occasionally during the week and in the evenings. Hello/Bonjour families, My name is Oceane, I am 29 years old and originally from France. After being a nanny during 1 year in Sydney for a lovely 5 month old boy and a 2yo girl, I am currently an Au Pair in Clovelly and studying a Certificate III and Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care. My Availability as a nanny are : • Monday ALL DAY AFTER 9 AM • Tuesday and Wednesday between 9 AM and 3 PM • Thursday between 9 AM and 5 PM • Friday evening • Weekend I have been nannying 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 (specialy babies and toddlers). I was a nanny for a lovely 5 month old boy (age when I started) and a lovely 2yo girl during my first year in Sydney. I 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 for wonderful families. I am studying Early Childhood Education and Care, 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 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, Océane

Hi! I’m Anna, a 27 year old American living in Australia with years of child care experience. I began working as a babysitter when I was 11 years old and have worked on and off as a babysitter/nanny ever since. I have experience with children of every age, from newborns to teens. I came to Australia to see new things and meet new people, and I don’t think spending my time in a corporate job would do much of that. Instead, I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to return to the first work I loved, working with children. I am a loving and responsible sitter and will always prioritize the needs of you and your children. I am so excited to meet your family and experience the community that Australia has to offer!

I am a dedicated and experienced nanny with over four years of hands-on experience supporting young children through the most important stages of their early development. My approach is deeply child-focused, grounded in a strong understanding of child development and a genuine passion for nurturing each child’s individual growth, wellbeing, and potential. I began my nannying career in Ireland caring for two boys aged just 3 months and 18 months. Supporting them from infancy through early childhood gave me invaluable insight into key developmental milestones, including attachment formation, language development, emotional regulation, and early social skills. I provided consistent, responsive care tailored to their evolving needs, creating a secure and nurturing environment where they felt safe to explore, learn, and develop confidence. As a qualified social worker, I bring a comprehensive understanding of child development theories and evidence-based practice to my work. This enables me to take a thoughtful and intentional approach to caregiving—supporting not only children’s physical needs, but also their emotional, social, and cognitive development. I am particularly attuned to the importance of secure attachments, positive reinforcement, and play-based learning in fostering resilience, independence, and self-esteem. I design and implement engaging, age-appropriate activities that support developmental progression, from sensory play and early communication for infants to imaginative play, problem-solving, and social interaction for older children. My experience as a children’s soccer coach (ages 18 months to 5 years) and drama teacher (ages 7–12) has further strengthened my ability to support physical development, creativity, confidence, and teamwork in a fun and structured way. I am passionate about creating a warm, safe, and stimulating environment where children feel valued, understood, and supported as individuals. I take a person-centred approach, recognising that every child develops at their own pace and tailoring my care to meet their unique needs, interests, and personality. My goal is always to provide high-quality, developmentally informed care that supports children to thrive emotionally, socially, and cognitively, while building strong, trusting relationships with both children and their families.

I’m a creative and enthusiastic Architecture student who truly loves being around children. I’m very active, responsible, and naturally nurturing I’ve always been the big sister, which taught me patience and leadership from a young age. I speak both English and Spanish fluently and enjoy bringing creativity into everything I do, from arts and crafts to fun outdoor activities. I have experience caring for children during summers in Houston and completed a three-month volunteer program in rural Portugal working with young kids. I’m energetic, reliable, and passionate about creating a safe, joyful environment for children.

I’m a freelance artist/illustrator and have worked as a nanny for the past 10 years. I love working with children; it’s fun active and rewarding. I have worked with children from ages 2-13. I’m reliable, conscientious, a fast learner and have an eye for detail. I’m willing to go the extra mile and help in different ways as I understand the difficulty of having a busy schedule and being a parent

I grew up in the eastern suburbs of Sydney and we currently live here with our 12-year-old daughter. Over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience working as a nanny, caring for children ranging from newborns to teens. For the past 5 years, I’ve also worked at a local primary school in learning support and the school office, which has enriched my skills in child development, behaviour management, and creating positive, supportive environments. Currently nannying for a family with a beautiful 2 1/2 year old and 5 month old, who I have cared for since birth. With years of hands-on experience, I’m committed to providing a safe, fun, and caring space for your little ones. Whether it’s playtime, art and craft, fun outings or bedtime routines, I am here to make sure they’re well cared for and entertained. I’m also CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m comfortable with light housekeeping or meal prep if needed. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Many thanks Kim
