Meet Karli: A nanny and babysitter in Essendon, VIC

Hi families,

I'm a primary school teacher currently working as a Casual Relief Teacher (CRT) and am looking to pick up some additional work in the evenings, weekends, and school holidays. I'm also open to daytime shifts alongside my teaching commitments if the hours are the right fit for both myself and your family.

Ideally, I'd love to build a strong relationship with a family and become a regular, trusted support person for your children through ongoing work.

Before moving into full-time teaching for 3 years, I worked as a nanny for over 10 years with several wonderful families, caring for children ranging from 12 months to 15 years old. My first part-time job was at The Tiny Chef, a children's cooking party venue, where I worked with children aged 2–13, giving me extensive experience supporting and engaging with kids across a variety of ages and settings.

Outside of teaching, I love staying active and playing netball. I'm currently coaching two senior teams at Melbourne University and have previously coached junior teams and NetSetGO programs. I enjoy creating fun, positive, and engaging experiences for children, whether that's helping with homework, playing games, doing arts and crafts, getting outdoors, or simply being a reliable and caring presence.

I look forward to hearing from you and would love to chat about how I can support your family.
