Hello families, My name is Andrea Velardez, and I’m originally from Argentina. I speak both Spanish and English fluently, and I am currently studying Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care. After completing this course, I plan to continue my studies to obtain a Diploma in Early Childhood Education. I have been working with children for the past three years, gaining experience in different countries and settings. I began my journey as an educator in a kindergarten in Argentina, where I developed a strong foundation in early childhood education. Later, I worked as an Au Pair in San Francisco, USA, where I cared for a newborn and a toddler at the same time for one year. After moving to Australia a year and a half ago, I started working as a babysitter for various families through an agency. Currently, I am employed at a school in Pascoe Vale, Strathmore, where I work in the Out of School Hours Care (OSHC) program. In addition, I provide in-home care through an agency called VPM. I hold a First Aid and CPR certificate, a Working with Children Check, and a driver’s licence. I also own a car equipped with a child seat, and I feel very comfortable driving with children. I absolutely love animals — I have two cats of my own — and I enjoy working in environments where there are pets around. I have also worked as an educator in a childcare zone at a gym, where I supervised and engaged with children in a fun and safe environment. I am passionate about creating positive, nurturing, and educational experiences for children of all ages. Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your family! Warm regards, Andrea Velardez

Ciao! I’m Sara, a 27-year-old from Italy, and I’ve been calling Melbourne home for about three years now. I’m truly loving the life I’m building here and I’m looking for a wonderful family to support as a babysitter. Back in Italy, I was a dance teacher, so I naturally bring a lot of energy, creativity, and movement into my work with children. Whether we’re learning a new "dance routine" in the living room or playing games, I love creating a joyful and sunny environment where kids can be themselves. At the same time, I’m an extremely cautious and attentive person, safety is always my absolute priority. One of my biggest passions is cooking. I love preparing delicious, nutritious, and authentic meals that kids actually enjoy eating. I’m also more than happy to help out with light housework and keeping things tidy, so you can come back to a calm and organized home. My goal is to make sure every moment spent with your little ones is safe, educational, and, above all, happy. I can’t wait to meet you and your family!
