I'm Kelly, a 39-year-old who's got a blend of wisdom and childlike wonder, available for casual babysitting. I am a regular ad hoc babysitter for multiple families across Fitzroy, Thornbury, Preston, and Brunswick East, with kids aged 1 to 11 years old. I am also a regular babysitter for my 3yo niece, who never fails to fill my heart with happiness as she explores the world. Babysitting is a joy, filled with crafts, playgrounds, Disney movies, baking sessions, bike rides, science experiments, and story time. I enjoy cooking and often prepare nourishing meals for the kids. Although my main focus is on giving the kids my full care and attention, I might have time to whip up a meal for parents as well. Warmth, authenticity, and nurturing are my go-tos. I'm all about fostering creativity and curiosity, making every moment a blend of fun and learning. Kids have this incredible knack for reminding us of life's simple joys, and I find that truly inspiring. While I work full-time from 9 am to 5 pm, I operate from home on Fridays, so offer flexible support on that day, and most evenings and weekends are also open. I am excited about the opportunity to connect with you and your children, creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for their growth and happiness. Looking forward to speaking with you soon! 😊
