Babysitters in Cockatoo, VIC

Hi there 😊 Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I genuinely love spending time with children, and I've worked with all ages. From newborns to teenagers. I've had a lot of experience with babies and toddlers so I'm very comfortable and confident with feeding, bathing, changing, and bedtime routines. I also have experience with twins and with using responsive settling to help resolve sleeping issues, so if you're struggling at night or need an extra hand in those early stages, please reach out. My specialty is helping lighten the load for new parents! When there's time I love to help out around the house in whatever way I can, from stacking the dishwasher to folding the washing. My style is warm hearted, kind, patient, nurturing and loving. I practice meditation and mindfulness which flows through to my work and allows me to maintain peace and calm when faced with challenges. I am encouraging and enthusiastic with children, which allows them to blossom and shine in their own unique ways. I love being outdoors and an average day with me usually includes a walk to the local park, nature reserve, cafe, or at the very least a run around the backyard. I also enjoy outings to the Collingwood Children's Farm, Scienceworks, the Museum, the local Library and many more adventures when time permits. I've worked as an au pair in France, a volunteer teacher in Nepal, and a nanny and babysitter in Melbourne. I have a reliable car, I'm willing to travel and I can provide reliable references including one family that I worked with for 8 years. Thank you, I look forward to hearing from you and wish you all the best in finding that perfect nanny or babysitter to suit your family.

Dear parent, My love for taking care of children and my rewarding experience of working as a teacher to primary school students as well as of a nanny has inspired me to be a part of a child’s growth and helping parents to run the household smoothly.

Hi, my name is Nicole! I am an experienced babysitter and am currently in Monash University majoring in History. I love to do pretty much anything that involves trying new things, creativity, thinking, or talking. I just love forming connections with little humans and watching them learn about this world. My philosophy for childcare is balance. Children need a balance of discipline and freedom, routine and novelty, and independence and care. And ultimately, as with dealing with adults, I believe everything should come from a place of empathy. I first found a passion for caring for children by voluntarily looking after young family friends and then decided to make a job out of it. I have worked professionally with 3 families; 3 girls (2, 4, 6), a boy (5) and girl (7), and 2 girls (8 months, 5) with 3 total years of experience. I also do casual work as a teaching assistant in a high school. I would love to get to know you and your family and help your child become the best version of themselves!
