Nannies in Northcote, VIC

Aside from being a housewife and parent to my two boys (aged 9 and 11), I do a lot of volunteer work at their school. I　finished Certificate IV in School Based Education Support. However, I do still have some spare time while my kids are at school, and I would love to spend it helping other mums who are having a hard time. I am very caring, patient, friendly and energetic. I don't like the idea of kids using screens, especially when they are at a young age, and so I've learned to be very creative and flexible when playing with kids.

Hello, I am a responsible mature age female who owns a creative arts studio for kids in Thornbury. Prior to this, I worked as a visual artist for 12 years within a Reggio-inspired (play-based) educational system both in Australia and overseas. This position allowed me to connect with children from various cultural backgrounds and intellectual capabilities aged between 18mths-12yrs. I am a fun-loving, reliable, energetic person who firmly believes that children have a voice and rights. This belief and respect for children contribute to the relationships I build with them. Over the past two years, I have cared for 15-year-old twin girls each morning and afternoon. I am now looking for other casual babysitting opportunities. I am flexible and willing to work extra hours if necessary. My only request is that it must be a NO cat household. I currently hold and am: * a WWCC *first aid certificate including Anaphylaxis & Asthma * driver’s license * roadworthy vehicle * fully vaccinated * Australian resident I look forward to the opportunity to get to know your children Trish

As an experienced Early Childhood Educator and accomplished Musician, I bring over 13 years of expertise in nurturing and educating young children. I have recently returned to Melbourne after spending 1.5 years overseas. I currently work at Isabel Henderson Kindergarten as their music specialist. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience working with children in a variety of settings, including kindergartens across Melbourne's inner north and as a nanny for several families. I maintain strong relationships with all of my previous employers, who can provide glowing references. I value the importance of my experience and skills, which is reflected in my pay rate. I am happy to assist with cleaning, laundry, and cooking. As a vegetarian, I specialise in plant-based cooking, and my experience with preparing meat-based dishes is limited.

Hi there! I’m Eliza — I’m currently completing a Doctor of Clinical Psychology at Deakin University. I’ve always had a deep interest in child development and caregiving, and as I return to full-time study, I thought connecting with a local family could be a wonderful way to continue doing what I love while supporting myself through my doctorate. I completed my Honours in Psychology at the University of Melbourne in 2022, then spent some time travelling before working as a school counsellor in the wellbeing team at Melbourne Girls’ College. During my undergraduate years, I worked as a Tutor at University of Melbourne and as a nanny for a wonderful family in Carlton. These experiences really showed me how important it is to build consistent, caring relationships with children and to appreciate what makes each child unique. As a nanny, I’m a big believer in nurturing children’s confidence and agency — supporting them to express themselves, explore their interests, and navigate the world around them. I’ve been caring for children of all ages for nearly 10 years and bring a calm, creative, and dependable presence to the families I work with. I’m currently based in Fitzroy North, hold a current Working With Children Check, and would love to hear from families looking for a warm and reliable nanny.

I am a caring person having had my two children who are now grown up. I am good with children and love to cook and interested in taking children to activities afterschool sports etc.

Hello, I’m a nanny and babysitter in North Fitzroy with more than a decade of experience in all aspects of childcare for every age, including live-in sole care. I've looked after three children, five fur-babies and one bird all at once and another time four brothers after-school… Currently I’m still chasing and being chased by kids as they head of to primary school after watching them grow up through the pandemic. Imaginative and role play are some of my favourite activities as well as any opportunity to draw, make art, learn and read stories. Some afternoons I’m watching kids swim and play basketball or just catching up quickly before they head to bed. I’m more than happy to clean, cook and fold washing - whatever needs doing. With some room in my timetable it would be lovely to meet and assist another family.
