Hi families! I’m a third year Uni student based in Elwood (originally from Sydney) who is confident, outgoing, and loves working with kids! After I graduated High School in 2022, I worked in a gymnastics and developmental learning coaching role, working with children from 6 months- 12 years old.

I’m always happy to help with laundry, meal prep, and light cleaning, however, I am not looking for a role in a home where no effort has been made to tidy up whilst I’m not there :)

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.

I’m taking a break from the corporate world and finishing up on the mountain in a couple of weeks. I’ll be back in Elwood/Brighton from mid-September, looking to split my time between a couple of nannying families if I can. Look forward to speaking soon. Many thanks, Charlotte

I am energetic and absolutely love being with little children out, playing, movement, dancing, singing, making food, walks and discovering the little things in our world outdoors. Have been a nanny for 10 years, researched and experienced the early childhood and development field and have completed my Diploma in early childhood in 2018. Even though I explored the early childhood field in childcare centres my delight is in being out and about mostly in nature with kids exploring the local surroundings, bugs, plants, birds, playgrounds etc. Sometimes even a walk when done slowly, just down the street can be amazing. When we stop and notice the scents, sounds and each little thing that is there. I find this to be a favourite of children and I enjoy being in the present moment with them.

Hello! Welcome to my profile. I consider myself to be a fun, honest, reliable, compassionate and organised individual with a load of experience caring for my own gorgeous child (now all grown up) and precious others. Bucket loads of initiative. Providing a safe nurturing environment for the little ones to blossom, is what I aim to achieve. My professional background includes Nursing and qualifications in TAE, some hospitality experience too. Outdoor activity was a must in my family. I enjoy cooking. love ironing (multi task activity) if required, light housekeeping too. Being entrusted with the care of another's child is an honour and not taken lightly. My attention and focus is on the child and is one of the reasons I do not have a "Smart Phone". If your expectation is for updates via photos or vids etc, I am not the right person. I can do talk and text on my mobile phone when I am free and it is safe to do so. I look forward to engaging with you if you feel I fit with your expectations. I hope your day is a lovely one ! =) Anita NDIS provider for self managed funding participants (if required) NDIS rates apply.
