Looking for: Part-time,Casual Babysitting

Hey families! I’m a primary school teacher currently working as a casual relief teacher but looking for extra work in the evenings/ on weekends/ holidays. Ideally I would love to build a bond with a family and have regular casual shifts with them. Before getting into full time teaching, I previously nannied for over 10 years with multiple families, with kids ranging from 12 months-15 years old. My first part time job was working at The Tiny Chef, a children's cooking party venue with kids aged 2-13, so I have plenty of experience being around kids in all settings! I also love being active and playing netball and am currently coaching two senior teams for Melbourne University. I have previously coached junior sides as well as Net-Set-Go. I really look forward to hearing from you!

Hello Im Sahasra, 19, and a second-year business student at RMIT! I have always been around kids. I feel they make such a special difference in our lives, and I am looking forward to the time that I will be able to have little ones of my own! I have cared for children from family and friends, and I have also volunteered some time in my high school kinder to Year 1, helping them in class activities, talking with them, and assisting them when needed. It was a super rewarding time and allowed me to understand more about each child as a person and how they are in various situations. Even during family or friends' parties and events, I would often just be in the corner taking care of children because that's the part I enjoy, whether they're quiet or wiggling around, I will still be able to manage. I will be more merry to help look after your little ones, and provide updates and adjust to preferences.

Hi there! I’m a dedicated and nurturing early childhood professional with many years of experience working with children of all ages. My background includes working in child care centres, schools, private homes, and I’m currently working casually at Tweddle Early Parenting Centre. I’ve also had the joy of helping raise my nieces and nephews—now all grown up—which is a big part of why I truly miss being around babies and young children. I bring a calm, positive, and reliable presence into every home I work in. I genuinely enjoy supporting children as they grow, learn, and develop into their own unique selves. I’m a strong communicator, highly flexible, and a natural multitasker—skills that come from growing up in a big, busy family! I have extensive knowledge of early childhood development and can provide a safe, engaging, and fun environment that suits your child’s individual needs. I’m confident with bedtime routines, including bath time, story time, and settling children for sleep with consistency and care. I’m also happy to help with simple, healthy meal prep and snacks to keep little ones well-fed and happy throughout the day or evening. Whether you're looking for occasional care or more regular support, I’d love to chat further and can meet in person to see if I’m the right fit for your family.
