Nannies in Heidelberg Heights, VIC

Hello everyone! I am an experienced Diploma qualified Educator and also have a Diploma in Community Services. I am currently working as a self employed In-home care Educator, on a casual basis, and have over 10 years experience. I have worked with children with special needs and also in aged care. I am a mother of two adult children, I'm nurturing, patient and reliable and come from a large close knit European family. I enjoy spending time with family and friends, cooking, meditation and volunteering. I am flexible and always a phone call away. Children's safety and wellbeing has always been a priority for me as well as interacting effectively and positively and developing trust between the child, parents (guardian/s) and myself. I have a WWCC, first aid certificate, police check and am fully vaccinated.

Hello there! My name is Merlyn, and I am a qualified Early Childhood Educator with five years of experience. I completed my Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care at Box Hill Institute in 2021. I have cared for children from 6 months to 12 years of age, supporting families with everything from playtime and creative activities to bedtime routines, homework, and general care. My background in early childhood education has equipped me with strong skills in tailoring care to each child’s individual needs, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and supported. Families often describe me as patient, reliable, and easygoing. I genuinely love working with children and feel privileged to be part of their learning and growth. If you are looking for a caring and dependable babysitter to support your family, I’d love to connect. I am happy to provide professional and parent references.

I am a responsible and caring university student with strong organisational skills and experience in creating positive and engaging environments. Through my volunteer work with nursing home residents and as a French tutor, I have developed patience, empathy, and the ability to communicate effectively with people of all ages. I am skilled at managing schedules, assisting with educational activities, and fostering a safe, nurturing atmosphere. My reliability and attention to detail make me confident in providing excellent care, and I am excited to support families by ensuring children feel valued, secure, and happy under my supervision.

I recently moved here from the US to play professional soccer and am looking for babysitting/nannying! I have over 8 years of babysitting experience and a full summer of nannying experience. I am available every day during the morning/daytime before training. I’m a warm, upbeat, and active person who genuinely enjoys being around kids. I bring a lot of energy and patience to my work, and I naturally connect with children of all ages. I love creating a fun and supportive environment where kids feel safe to be themselves, whether that means getting creative with crafts, playing games outside, or just being a calm, steady presence during a tough moment. I stay relaxed under pressure and always aim to show up as someone kids (and parents!) can count on. I am looking to start ASAP!

I have been working as a professional nanny for 25 years including six years in the United States. I decided to make nannying my career when working overseas as I found it both rewarding and enjoyable. I love working with children because they are unpredictable, fun and genuine. Everyday as a nanny is unique and it is my personal responsibility to make it as fun, informative and creative as possible. I have had a diverse range of jobs including sole-charge, working with a mum who is "in and out" and caring for children for up to four weeks whilst their parents have been holidaying or travelling for work. I have cared for families with 2 - 6 children with the ages ranging from newborns - 16 year. I believe the key to being a good nanny is providing a happy and safe environment for the children and having an open and honest relationship with the parents.

My name is Bella, I am 18 years old and I am currently studying to become a psychologist. I am enthusiastic, flexible and compassionate and have assisted and cared for many family members and younger cousins, and I work very well with children and in high pressure situations. Having scored a 93 ATAR I am able to aid with studying for older children I work with. I am happy to take care of and provide a safe and calm environment where I would be babysitting.

I have worked with chills for most of my life in childcare and in-home care and am just happy to help where and when I can. I have a Police Check, WWCC and a NDIS check. I have worked with children with a wide range of disabilities and would happy to accommodate to your families needs
