Nannies in Reservoir, VIC

I am a recent nurse graduate who is affectionate, caring and empathetic. As I was the eldest daughter of my joint family, taking care of others comes naturally to come. I grew up taking care of younger siblings, so working around children makes me feel like home. Working as a nanny made me organised, a great planner and communicator.When I was in school, loved to participate in art and recreation activities and have studied children's health as one my electives in nursing. My mother was a teacher, teaching and learning was something I got from her and really enthusiastic about it as well.

Hi! My name is Laura. I am a Latin American woman with a strong desire to learn, highly motivated and compassionate. I am looking for my first opportunity as a babysistter in Australia.

I also enjoy cooking traditional meals from my culture, dancing to Latin music, and bringing joy to others. I don't have a vehicle yet, but I plan to get one in the future. My goal is to grow in this field, provide high-quality care, and be a supportive and positive presence for those I assist. I love the animals

Hello! My name is Bobby and I am an Education Support Worker, Artist and Horticulturalist based in Reservoir. Currently I am looking for casual or part-time babysitting work, with potential for on-going work with the right family! I work as a teacher’s aide at a local high school and have many years experience working in primary school as well, so I double as a tutor! I have been babysitting for well over a decade now, with experience caring for babies and children of all ages and I have many happy references willing to take your call :-) I am a very attentive babysitter, with their well-being and safety being my first priority. I am vigilant and skilled when responding to potential risks/safety concerns. An important part of babysitting for me is spending quality time and facilitating creative and educational activities. Such as the use of arts and crafts as tools of expression, learning about environmental sciences, veggie gardening, fairy house construction, short story and poetry writing, making music (singing, guitar, ukulele) and excursions to local libraries, parks and the creek! I am able to assist with cleaning, laundry and meal prep, if you are looking for someone to help out inbetween school drop off/pick ups to keep routines running smoothly. I am passionate about helping children to reach their best personal, academic and creative potentials and helping them thrive during important developmental periods. I hope to hear from you soon!

Hi parents! My name is Lauren and I’m a qualified primary school teacher currently taking a break from full-time classroom teaching. While I’m stepping back from full-time work, I’m still very keen to spend my time working with children and supporting families in a more flexible capacity. I have five years of experience as a primary school teacher, as well as three years of nannying experience while I was at university. During this time, I cared for children regularly and built strong, trusting relationships with both the children and their families. I’m flexible with hours and open to casual, short-term, or long-term arrangements. I also hold a current Working With Children Check and I am First Aid trained amongst other qualifications. I genuinely have a passion for working with children and creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for them to thrive in. I’d love to chat about what kind of support you’re looking for and see if I’d be a good fit for your family. Please don’t hesitate to reach out 😊

Hello there! I'm currently seeking a part-time or casual nanny position after the family I’ve been working with moved out of town. I have over a decade of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers, and I’ve formed long-term, trusting relationships with the families I’ve worked with. I frequently step in as auntie for close friends and family, and have a step-daughter of my own too. I also work as a kids’ party, workshop and play space facilitator, fuelling my passion for supporting self-expression, learning, empowerment and play. In other words, I love kid's and am very experienced in caring for all ages. Prior studies in yoga and eastern philosophies, and my current focus on counselling and psychology, along with personal experience navigating my own mental health and neurodiversity, have contributed greatly to my ability to attune to and communicate well with children. I have a high capacity for providing emotional support, practicing non-violent communication and staying calm and regulated in stressful situations. My priority is to foster a mutually safe, trusting relationship with children and their families, and to nurture emotional regulation and connection, ensuring children feel seen, heard, and respected, aligning with familial values and being a positive role-model. I bring a playful and creative spirit with a love for exploration, adventures as well as cozy and fun times at home. I enjoy cooking, baking, making music, arts and crafts, and exploring nature, museums, playgrounds, libraries, galleries parks and whatever else the day takes us. I'm confident with planning activities, inspiring play and coming up with ideas that encourage joy and learning. I'm also a big fan of child-lead play and enjoy discovering and nurturing whatever sparks the child's interest and enthusiasm, and I find it very rewarding being a part of nurturing a child's interests and talent. I’m very happy to assist with daily tasks like morning and bedtime routines, school drop-offs, errands, meal prep, homework, laundry and general household upkeep. Grossed out by the head lice your kid kindly bought home from daycare? I've got you covered! I'm very aware of the stress and chaos that can come with juggling work, home and personal life while raising little ones , and take great joy in being able to support families to survive and to help children thrive. Being invited into a child's life to nurture their wellbeing and help them to grow, learn, and enjoy their world is a privilege and a joy, and I look forward to continuing to be a positive, supportive and inspiring presence for the next little human and their family. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile and feel free to get in touch with any questions or to arrange a conversation if we sound like a good fit :)
