Babysitters in Wide Bay-Burnett, QLD

Dear families, I'm a creative and reliable nanny with 10 years experience caring for children ages 0-6. I have a very playful and gentle nature and working with children and families is one of my biggest passions! Basics: 30 yrs old WWCC Car and open drivers license First Aid CPR and anaphylaxis cert Wonderful references Animal lover, non-smoker and vaccinated. Looking for: 2 or 3 days, 6+ hour shifts (8am - 6pm) I’m available Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays as I’m currently caring for a 5 year old and 3 year old on the other days. I have experience with disabilities (ASD, Cerebral Palsy, global delay, Down syndrome) and happy to learn more. I’m big on creativity, imagination and learning. I love engaging children in art, craft, books, cooking and storytelling. I love nature, being outdoors with children and activities like playgroups, library, ginger factory and galleries. I prefer to leave screen time for parents or if children are sick. I strongly believe in encouraging a growth mindset early on so children feel confident and capable in their abilities. I aim to foster independence (tidying up, putting their plates away, giving them time to try and practice new and tricky skills) and am very patient. I’m able to apply logical discipline and set safe boundaries. I enjoy free messy play with art or in the garden. I like organising play spaces so children and have easy access to their resources and toys. It makes it easy to enjoy tidying up because they know where everything belongs, which helps them feel secure in their environment and fosters responsibility and independent play. I’m more than happy to do laundry, light housework and meal prep for children. I’m vego but can serve meat if pre-cooked. Happy to run errands (groceries, post office etc.) though my first priority is making sure your children are happy and engaged in my care. If I sound like the right fit for your family, please get in touch to discuss further. I look forward to hearing from you! Kind regards, Maddy

As a babysitter I'm excited to provide caring and engaging childcare for your little ones. With over a year of experience working with babies, toddlers, and preschoolers I've developed a natural ability to connect and engage with children and ensure they feel safe and happy. I'm first aid and CPR certified, as well as an up to date working with children's check, drivers licence and library card haha. I am happy to look after pups as well as kids and enjoy making scrumptious meals in the kitchen for your kids to enjoy. I ran my own cleaning business for quite some time so am capable and happy to do an house work and chores. I enjoy teaching the kids something new everyday and engaging in activities like arts and craft, reading, imagination filled games and love having music on for a bit of a boogy with the kids. I am a level 1 surf coach who specializes in the groms so if the kids ever want to go surfing they know who to ask I do CrossFit every day to keep fit and healthy and love the beach! If I sound like somebody you would like you're kiddies to be around then flick me a message X
