Nannies in Elsternwick, VIC

Hi, I am a mature, experienced, active, healthy, happy and passionate carer. I have been looking after children since I was 13. I have two grown up children and 3 grandchildren. Currently working as a Nanny. I cook, tidy, sort, organize, cater and personally assist with errands for various families already. Now I am ready to fill my available times in my working week.. I have experience with newborns and I can help new mother's also. I can do some casual work in my spare time, or have permanent work, if it fits my weekly workload. I have kept in touch long term with some of the families who I’ve worked for in the past. I have experience from newborn to teenagers. Lately I have been working with babies a lot... I speak, read and write fluent English and Hungarian,( I can understand a very minimal German .)-- also teach and participate in Hungarian folk-dance two evenings a week. Dancing is a big part of my life, it is a great way to keep fit!! Also love gardening, and spending time on the beach...or riding my bike.. I am a MOTIVATED, EXPERIENCED, CARING, RESPONSIBLE, PATIENT, RELIABLE, person with common sense, and good organizing skills. I have worked with a family with multiple children, and have taken sole care of 3 children under 3 years old, including twins and premature newborns. I love children, and they love me too :-) Would prefer daytime work (available from early morning), but I will be happy to do casual hrs as well. You will be surprised what can be achieved in a few hrs in the morning! I can be very flexible for the right family, as all my references will tell you. Family pets are no problem. I have checkable (GREAT) references for you. Looking forward to hearing from you. ****Thank you, and have a great day :). Maria H

Hi, My name is Phuong Nguyen, and I am a 23-year-old student from Vietnam, currently studying at CIC Higher Education in Melbourne CBD. While my academic background may not be directly related to childcare, I am confident in my ability to care for children. I understand the challenges parents face in balancing work and family, as I have personal experience looking after my niece and nephew, who are now 5 and 3 years old. For three years, I was responsible for their care until I moved abroad to pursue my studies. This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of children’s needs and the patience required to nurture them. I am eager for the opportunity to support families and ensure their children are well cared for. I would love the chance to discuss how I can assist with your childcare needs. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to your family’s well-being.

Hi! My name is Aoife and I am 29 years old. I am an Irish primary school teacher. I have two years experience teaching second class (7/8 year olds) and three years experience teaching third class (9/10 year olds). I have been teaching in Australia for the past two and a half years. I enjoy keeping children active through games, board games, trips to the park, sport and arts and crafts. I like to cater to the needs of each individual family and spend the days doing activities the child(ren) enjoy. I am kind, understanding and enjoy doing fun activities with kids. I worked with two families part-time over the summer holidays last year. I continued working with a family in the evenings during the week up to a couple of months ago. I am available weekdays from 5 pm onwards (4pm dependent on distance), some weekends and also available for the coming Easter Break. Looking forward to hearing from you!

My name is Laura Bartlett, I am 25 years old. I come from a small country town on the border of NSW and VIC. I have a passion for working with children, coming from a big family at home I have always cared for and babysat my young cousins from new-born to all ages. I have recently enrolled in early childhood education to begin my future career working in kindergartens and preschools. I have had 2 jobs previously as a private nanny. While I was living back home in the country I worked for a family as their private nanny. Matt the Father of the children employed me to care for his 2 children aged 4 - 6. I regretfully had to give up this position due to moving to Melbourne. Since moving to Melbourne I worked as a private nanny for a lovely family, Chantelle the mother of the children employed me to care for their 4 children aged 12 months, 3, 6 and 8 years old. I am currently seeking a future Nannying role in Melbourne to continue my passion for working with babies and children. I am skilled in safe use of car seats, preparing food and safe eating, sleeping routines, caring for newborns, helping with homework, medications and first aid, morning and evening routines. I am more than willing and capable to help you around the house with any chores or jobs you may need such as dishes, laundry and washing, housekeeping duties, or any preparation needed to help free up your time to spend with your family

I’m a conscientious, passionate, and driven individual with over 10 years of experience caring for children aged 4+ months to 13 years. Working as a nanny and babysitter has been such a rewarding journey, allowing me to form meaningful connections with families and support children as they grow and thrive. From soothing newborns to engaging curious toddlers and supporting school aged kids with their routines, I’ve had the privilege of adapting to the unique needs of each child I’ve worked with. Along the way, I’ve developed creative ways to keep little ones entertained, from fun educational activities to hands on arts and crafts projects. My background also includes a diploma in professional education, as well as experience assisting in kindergartens and primary schools. These roles helped me build a strong foundation in creating safe and nurturing learning environments. Beyond childcare, I’m always happy to lend a helping hand to parents by tackling household tasks like cooking, cleaning, and laundry. I love making a positive difference in busy families’ lives, whether it’s giving parents peace of mind or adding joy and structure to children’s days. Being around kids inspires me every day, and I’m always looking for new ways to connect, support, and help them shine.

We know how to take care of children from their youngest age (baths, homework, playing, learning to sing, dancing, doing manual activities). We could also introduce you to our French culture, its wonderful food, and recipes that we can make for you together. We are two joyful friends who love life and sharing moments.

I am a responsible, caring, and enthusiastic individual with 8 years of experience babysitting children aged between 0-16.

I prioritise safety and ensure a nurturing environment while maintaining clear communication with parents. I am dependable, organised, and have strong problem-solving skills, (other wise I wouldn’t have managed to receive my Certificate III in Event Management). I am also comfortable preparing meals, assisting with bedtime routines, and handling minor first-aid situations.

Hey families, My name is Marnie, and I'm 33, I have over 18 years of experience in teaching, childcare and nannying and find these roles both professionally rewarding as well as consistent with my personal values. In addition, I have a Bachelor of Education (Primary), Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, and a Certificate 3 in Children's Services. Over the past four years, I have been a classroom teacher at a primary school in Brighton East. My role as a teacher has encompassed various aspects of children’s academic, social, and emotional growth. Being a teacher is incredibly rewarding. Not only do you see students’ growth and progress academically, but you can build connections, make a meaningful difference and leave a long-lasting impact on these students' lives. I have a deep understanding of child development, learning styles, and age-appropriate activities. This knowledge allowed me to create engaging and educational experiences for children in my care. I have experience in managing various classrooms and working with diverse groups of students honing my ability to handle different behaviours and adapt to individual needs, ensuring a safe and nurturing environment for the children I care for. But there is one thing I truly miss, caring for children in their home. Being that person in a household who is spreading kindness, care, and support. Before becoming a primary school teacher, I was a nanny. I have worked for several families within Australia and internationally (USA and Canada). My responsibilities included caring for newborn twins, and older children, following routines (including sleep patterns, feeding, and bathing), assisting with household cleaning, driving children to and from after-school activities, assisting with homework, and maintaining close communication with parents. Whilst I was studying for my Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care, where I was successful in gaining a scholarship through Swinburne University of Technology, to go to Vietnam. During this visit, I was volunteering in Hanoi, teaching English to prep-aged children. It was a fantastic experience and extended my childcare experience, as well as providing learning experiences in another culture, and participating in their usual day-to-day life activities. Prior to this experience, I was a nanny in America. This position involved living-in with a family in New Jersey, USA where I cared for their two children (girls now aged 4 and 8). Living full-time in the family house meant that it was important that my approach and behaviours aligned with the rules and principles of the family. I've also taken on additional roles working with children, such as a Ski Instructor at Mt Buller Ski Resort and an Assistant Educator at Explorer’s Early Learning Centre. These positions showcase my proficiency and professionalism in the field. I have a mature, responsible, and professional way of caring for children and I pride myself on creating a positive, happy environment in which children can thrive. My price per hour is negotiable ◡̈

A dedicated 26- year-old looking to provide a nurturing childcare environment in your household. I understand the value of patience, kindness, and adaptability.

I am a 20 year old uni student who is an energetic and fun person thats reliable, responsible and looking forward to working with you and your kids! A little bit about me: after graduating year 12 in December 2022, I moved to England for 2023 to live and work in a prep boarding school, caring for children aged 4-13. My primary role was to wake up/put to bed the children as 90% of them stayed on campus. I was also involved in sports coaching/supervising and aiding in the classroom. I absolutely loved my time over there and miss all the children dearly. I also have lots of babysitting experience and have worked with lots of families in the past year with children aged 18 months - 16 years. I am an avid reader and love playing games and having fun both indoors and out. Currently I work with kids aged 2-13 a few days a week. I am happy to provide references.

Hi! My name is Tilly and I am 30 years old, living in St Kilda. I love working with children, and have extensive experience in both a babysitting/nannying capacity as well as most recently in student wellbeing support for high-schoolers. I have a Bachelor in Paramedicine and am highly trained and competent with the administration of medical and mental-health first aid. Currently, I am an artist and run my own regenerative swimwear label from my home studio and am looking for part-time/casual work to supplement my income as I work on my passions! I'm also the very proud aunty of six beautiful baby niblings, so I understand and respect first hand the immense trust given by parents to leave their children in someone else's care and take this responsibility very seriously. *Please note: whilst I have a Bachelor of Paramedicine, I am currently arranging to renew my First Aid certificate.

Hi, I’m Kerrie, 24, originally from Ireland, and recently moved to Melbourne. Back home, I spent lots of time babysitting for my younger cousins and neighbours, so I’m very comfortable caring for children of all ages. I’m responsible, kind and love getting involved in fun activities like games, crafts and outdoor play. I’m now looking for a new opportunity here in Australia where I can put my experience to good use and become a helpful, positive part of a family’s routine. I’m also happy to help out with light housework and homework if needed. I also have an intermediate understanding of Spanish and French, so I’m happy to help kids with language learning either!
