I am originally from the UK, and I have been in Australia for over a year. I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to work in such a beautiful country. My background is in early years, and I have been working with children since 2016 in various capacities. I am a bubbly, empathetic, caring individual, and I have a nurturing, enthusiastic approach to working with children. I like to create a positive, and calming environment for children to learn and grow within. I have worked as a teaching assistant with a child with additional needs, this gave me a lot of experience with adaptability and emphasised the need for a flexible approach to learning. I have been an au pair for three different families, working with children aged 6 months, up to 4 years old. I have cared for multiple children at one time, including caring for twins. I believe understanding the child’s routine within the home is a crucial part of helping families with their day to day lives. As I have volunteered for a family based charity, I understand how important it can be to have people to support families, especially in the early years. I have a wide range of skills, and I am eager to put them into practice. I have a strong work ethic, kindness, patience, and a strong passion for working with children. I am currently working as a barista part time, but i am looking for something more permanent within nannying. References available upon request.

Hi everyone! 👋 I’m an art teacher — friendly, creative, and pretty handy in the kitchen, especially when it comes to gluten-free cooking 😉 I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Education and Plastic Arts, and I worked as an art teacher for four years in Chile, mainly with high school students. I’ve also had experience with younger children aged 8–10, as well as babies from 12 to 24 months. After eight years living here, I’m proud to call Australia home. For the past two years, I’ve also worked as a Crèche Manager at BUMP Malvern, where I’ve been responsible for creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for little ones while supporting their early development through play. I love creating fun and dynamic activities around painting, sculpting, and drawing 🎨 After finishing university, I also trained as a yoga teacher for a year, which allows me to bring movement, mindfulness, and creativity together — nurturing the body, mind, and soul 💚 I’d describe myself as a true kid-lover — I believe children are the purest expression of honesty and love. They’re naturally creative, and when you focus on their strengths, they explore the world in such beautiful and simple ways. I’m passionate about a healthy lifestyle, animals, and long evening walks in the park — or curling up with a good book 📚🐾
