Babysitters in Greater Newcastle, NSW

I have a strong background in caregiving, having been raised by parents who were foster carers. My professional experience includes roles as a Disability Support Worker and Aged Care Support Worker, as well as working in residential care for teenagers in foster care. Currently, I serve as a Family Contact Worker Supervisor. Throughout my career, I have accumulated years of experience working with children ranging from 1 to 17 years of age. My expertise extends to both personal and professional experiences in mental health, including conditions such as bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, autism, vision impairment, and deafness. I am dedicated to providing emotional support and fostering a nurturing environment for those in my care.

Hi! My name is Caitlin and I am 31 years old and have been nannying/babysitting for 12 years now whilst I complete my studies (two degrees later!). I am currently in my final year of my second degree, Bachelor of Health Science (Clinical Nutrition), whilst helping out a beautiful family with their 13 month old boy two days per week. I actually don’t think there’s a better job then spending the day with the little ones I care for, whilst I complete the practical element of my course which requires me to attend college once per week. I am currently looking for a permanent role (12 month commitment) with an additional family in 2025, 1-2 days per week. Also I am available for casual evening babysitting, especially over the busy Christmas period! Over my many years of nannying and babysitting, I have cared for over 14 families, including babies as young as 3 months, right up until 14 years of age. I love kids spontaneity, honesty, creativity (and hilariousness!) ...and just plain CUTENESS! I definitely missed them when I worked part time in marketing and decided to go back to babysitting. I am more than happy to help around the house including washing, cleaning up the kitchen, tidying the house, whilst of course reading a bedtime story (or 5), and putting the kids to bed. I have a current working with children’s check, police check, full drivers licence, first aid and can provide as many parent references as you like! I am an outgoing, fun-loving, caring person and I am committed to providing a safe, fun filled, kind and caring environment for your child whilst helping you as super mum or super dad juggle life with little ones! Looking forward to meeting you and feel free to send me a text, or give me a call, if that’s easier for you too. 0488 022 465 Caitlin x

By nurturing their confidence, I enable them to learn essential skills that become part of their routine. As a result, this, in turn, empowers them to feel in control and increases their independence when performing activities of daily living.
