Nannies in Abbotsford, VIC

Hi Families! I’m Dominique ! Currently I am 21 years old, only having moved to Melbourne around 3 months ago from the country town of Rochester. I am currently working part time at the Royal Children’s hospital which I absolutely love, it's very rewarding! I would love to eventually return to uni and pursue a carer in paediatrics allied health as I feel like I have grown to love that environment and have an impact on the care they receive. I love being able to provide care for children, as they are such resilient little beings as well as providing support for the families and carers present. This I feel highlights my love for caring for children, with around 4 years of babysitting experience at present for children as young as 6 months old up to teenagers. One of the past families I used to care for on a regular basis was a family of 2 children, ages 5 and 3, I feel I was able to grow a beautiful bond with the kids and loved how excited they were to see me on the days i would babysit them! I would entertain them through various activities, including inside and outside games, going to the park, as well as some quiet time as it is sometimes needed! I have experience with children as young as 6 months old, and have juggled up to 3 kids at time! I have a warm and nurturing nature and I look forward to discussing with you further about the possibility of caring for your children and fitting into your family as best I can! Can’t wait to hear from you, Dom xx

Do you need some extra help during the summer holidays? I’d love to help out! My name is Alina, I am 28 years and have lots of childcare experience from my time working as an AuPair in the United States where I lived in two different families for 6 months each and took care of the children - 2 children aged 5-8 in my first family and 3 children aged 2-8 in the second family. I have also worked as an AuPair in Spain for 2 months, where I took care of 3 children aged 1-5 during the school holidays and also taught them German during my time there. I also have experience from working as a children’s gymnastics teacher, being a camp counselor and doing casual babysitting here and there. I consider myself friendly and open-minded and am very responsible in my task of babysitting/taking care of children. Activities I often did as an AuPair included going to the playground and library, doing arts and crafts projects, reading books and playing games at home and organising play dates with other children. I was also responsible for dropping off/picking up the kids from their leisure time activities, helping with homework and teaching German, preparing food and bringing the children to bed occasionally. I have a valid Working with Children Check, an Australian Driver’s License and can also provide you with my AuPair certificate. If you are looking for a friendly, responsible and creative babysitter for your children, I am looking forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Alina
