Nannies in Fitzroy, QLD

I have been a nanny for three families from Cairns to Melbourne over the past several years and loved every part of it! Amongst my travels, I have spent several months in Peru living with a remote indigenous Shipibo tribe of the Amazon basin, where I studied an array of plant medicine traditions. I have explored many parts of Australia as a solo traveller, though I have planted myself in Melbourne for the time being. I have just completed my Advanced Diploma in Steiner Education and will be further endeavouring with my studies as an educator next year. I have experience as a primary years swimming instructor, alongside many years of personal child care experience. I am from a very big family (8 siblings!), and believe it has taught me strengths and responsibilities that are unique to support the independence and growth of young people. I have a very playful and nurturing energy. I believe positive reinforcement and communication are the pivots that encourage the strong development of confident, vibrant, and thoughtful young people. I have a passion to continue working with children for the rest of my life and use my experiences to strengthen my character and skills as an educator and carer.

Hello parents, I'm a mature, calm and vibrant experienced child carer who has a lifelong passion for working with children. From an early age, I discovered my love for caring for babies and children under the age of 5 working as a part time baby sitter in my hometown of Castlemaine. I worked in child care centres throughout my 20's, before transitioning into a career as a professional musician, alongside raising two wonderful sons who are now 29 and 21. Over the years, I’ve remained deeply involved in caregiving, taking care of my niece's and I would say I have my head around the 'girl thing" too, knowing every Taylor Swift tune ever recorded! I've worked in Aged Care as a Lifestyle Activities Person over the years and also as a Disability Support worker. I have been a regular nanny now since 2020 including a family of three children under the age of six, a family of teens, and more recently caring on a permanent basis for a one year old boy and part time for numerous babies under 2. I strive to create a nurturing, fun environment where children feel safe and engaged. I believe in the importance of routine, ensuring children are well-rested, comfortable, clean and happy. I enjoy incorporating creativity into daily activities, whether through reading, music, arts and crafts, puzzles, or imaginative play - I excel at being silly! With my background in music, I'd say I'm a proficient lullaby singer and love to teach songs to children and use music as a calming tool. I'm also an experienced cook and very happy to make hearty healthy meals and nurture the family, household duties are fine also, as I work best in a clean and tidy space. I'm an animal lover, nature lover and gardener, I study horticulture on Wednesdays and happy to weed with the children. I would love to find a family where I feel welcome and can make a positive impact in your children’s lives. If you’re looking for a responsible, engaging, experienced mother and caring babysitter, I’d be delighted to chat further. Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones! Warm regards, Tracey

I'm comfortable following family routines, preparing meals, helping with homework, and keeping things organised. I have my own car and am reliable for school pick ups, drop offs, and extracurricular activities.

I have a calm, gentle nature and am confident managing challenging moments such as tantrums, big emotions, or difficult transitions. I focus on helping children feel understood, supported and settled. I genuinely enjoy engaging with children through games, imaginative play, crafts, reading, and creative activities. I'm also very comfortable with messy play, and I aim to make both play and clean up fun for everyone! Most importantly, I enjoy building positive relationships with the children I care for. I love laughing with them, joining in the games they enjoy, and creating a warm, safe environment where they feel comfortable and supported.
