Babysitters in Parkville, VIC

My name is Lola, I am 19 years old from Tasmania! I have moved to Melbourne to study at RMIT and am looking for a family to help out with babysitting/ nannying. I have been babysitting for 4 years, looking after newborns to 11 year olds. I am comfortable with preparing meals, changing diapers, dressing, cleaning, driving and of course, playing with/ entertaining children. I love, and have plenty of experience working with children through volunteer programs, student buddy programs, local sports and arts clubs as well as nannying/ babysitting. I have a deep understanding of children of all ages and have developed and practiced techniques in dealing with big emotions. I find the opportunity to develop relationships with children special, and understand the power of positive influences in their crucial years of development. I also understand the importance of trust and will work to develop a positive relationship with parents and children alike. I have a drivers licence, WWVC card and police check. With availability in the later half of the week and over the weekend, I would love to lend a helping hand!

Hi! My name is Hannah. I am 21 years old from South Africa but I am currently doing a year exchange to the Uni of Melbourne from the Uni of Edinburgh. In my gap year I worked as an au pair for 4 months in Scotland looking after a 4 month old and a 2 year old which has given me relevant experience looking after kids! I am studying Biology (immunology), and in my free time I love to run, spend time with my friends and play sport.

Hi, I am Mia and I am originally from Adelaide. I moved to Melbourne last year to study interior design at Rmit University. I love art and being creative along with all outdoor activities. Growing up I participated in surf life saving for 8 years which taught me all about ocean and pool safety along with allowing me to achieve my first aid course. I feel super comfortable around kids as I have been doing babysitting for over 4 years and have also been a school sports coach for touch football, soccer and hockey. I have two younger sisters at home and i am constantly surrounded by children through all of my younger cousins who I love. I have always loved babysitting as a job and would be so grateful to find some work with a local family.

I am a hard working and lively person with a strong family orientation which has gained me a lot of experience taking care of young family and friends. Having moved out of home for university I have proven myself to be self sufficient and capable of completing household chores and cleaning. I have experience running children's surf life saving programs and volunteering on camps for young people with disability with The Flying Fox organisation. Through these experiences I have gained the skills necessary to diligently watch over and entertain multiple children at once as well as children with a range of interests and needs.
