Babysitters in Preston, VIC

Hello! I'm Jasmin, a dedicated childcare professional with over 12 years of experience working with children aged 6 months to 17 years. I am passionate about creating a safe and stimulating environment, fostering positive relationships with children and parents. I'm currently employed in a full-time role at a childcare centre, so I'm only available public holidays, from 7pm during the working week, all day Saturdays and from 2pm on Sundays. It's worth mentioning that, while I hold a full driver's license, I prefer not to handle any driving responsibilities. My primary focus is on crafting engaging and enriching experiences for your child within a secure and comfortable environment. Thankyou.

Hi there! My name is Georgia and I am 29 years old. I am seeking part-time (5-10 hours per week) to support me during my studies next year. I am also available for casual evening/weekend babysitting. I have over 5 years of nannying experience in Melbourne and Brisbane. I have looked after children of a variety of ages, from as little as 2 to teenagers. I love working with children and caring for their needs. I believe I am a trustworthy and reliable worker with a warm, caring attitude. I aim to create a strong connection with the children and families I work for, built on trust, respect and of course, fun! I have my full licence, car, WWCC, NDIS Screening Check and Police Check.

I have completed my Bachelor in Business and I am currently undertaking my Masters in Communication part time. I have 5 years of experience in babysitting. I am an extremely friendly, fun, caring, patient and empathetic person who loves to help others. I have always loved looking after children and helping them grow. I will be able to successfully create a safe, fun and stimulating environment for the children. Additionally, I am also able to prepare basic meals and drive the children to sporting activities. I enjoy spending long days with the kids and taking them out to fun activities such as the Zoo, Aquarium, Mini golf etc. Lastly, I am exceptionally organised and reliable with a high level of personal presentation.

Hi, I’m Issy - I am a 25-year-old local artist and nanny with 4+ years of experience. I believe in a team mentality and I am more than happy to help in all capacities whether that is making dinner, walking the dog, doing the washing or staying overnight with the children. I understand that building caring and meaningful relationships, with both the children and the parents, helps to support the children in all stages of childhood. If I'm not focussing on my art, I'm watching a great film with my partner and our two cats or cooking up the best vegetables you've ever eaten (I will bring your leftovers). I am COVID vaccinated. Only looking for an LGTBQ+ friendly role. :)

Hi there! I am currently 23 years old, living independently in Thornbury and have graduated from RMIT (2023) studying a Bachelor of Criminology and Psychology. I am currently looking for casual babysitting opportunities before I start looking for roles in my career (in 2025/2026). I have previously looked after a family with 3 children (aged 8-13, from Feb-Dec 2022), and I am currently nannying for a family with 2 kids aged 10 & 12 (January 2024-current). I have also had many casual babysitting opportunities looking after toddlers and tweens (Dec 2021-current). I have limited experience working with children under the age of 1. I can provide references for these experiences :) I am after work that is rewarding, and allows me to form greater connections to those that I am supporting. My aspiration is to work in a counselling or case management setting that works with vulnerable families and youth/children. I have previously worked in a psychologist’s office where I assisted children with additional needs in their activities, and sat into occupational therapy sessions. I hope to bring the things I have learnt in this role with me! In addition to my part time work as a nanny, I am currently a Peer Mentor volunteer at Kids First, and a Crisis Supporter Volunteer at Lifeline. I am also an experienced pet sitter and dog walker, so I would be happy to help out with any pets as well. I am fully vaccinated (up to date boosters as well), have a WWCC, a police check issued in September of 2024, with a full and current driver’s license.

Hello, I'm looking for extra hours during the school holidays. I am a mature age graduate counsellor. I have a mindfulness background and value creating a warm and calm environment. I'm available short notice.

Aside from being a housewife and parent to my two boys (aged 9 and 11), I do a lot of volunteer work at their school. I　finished Certificate IV in School Based Education Support. However, I do still have some spare time while my kids are at school, and I would love to spend it helping other mums who are having a hard time. I am very caring, patient, friendly and energetic. I don't like the idea of kids using screens, especially when they are at a young age, and so I've learned to be very creative and flexible when playing with kids.

Hi lovely parents! My name is Téa and I am looking for work over the school holidays period, either part time or casual. Ideally, any parents reaching out need someone to babysit/child mind on a regular basis or to help in regards to an upcoming event. Background: I am going into my third year of uni in 2025, studying a bachelor of arts at the University of Melbourne. I major in psychology, and hope to one day work as an animal assisted therapist for children. Availability: I am available to work every day, at any time. I currently work with 2 lovely families. One that requires casual babysitting once every fortnight or so after hours, so my availability can fluctuate but I will happily convey this with you. And a second that requires before school help from 7:30am till 10am. Rate: My rate is $40 per hour, but I charge an extra $10 per hour (ie. $50 per hour) if you are wanting me to stay past midnight. Services: 1. Babysitting/child minding 2. Pet sitting 3. Cooking 4. Light cleaning 5. Basic homework help 6. Fun! Experience and Qualifications: As I’ve mentioned, I am currently working with two families. One where I look after two young boys aged 9 and 12, and another where I look after a 6 yearold girl. However, my experience working with children is much more vast. One of my hobbies growing up was playing chess, and I have fortunately been able to make a job out of it by tutoring primary and secondary school students. I have worked solo with classes of 3 to 20+ students at a time, and in team settings with 400 kids under my care. This means that I have gained a deep understanding as how to work with children who have learning difficulties and behavioural challenges. My work also requires me to have an employee wwcc and first aid certificate in an education and care setting. Upon request I am happy to share this with you. I have my license and can take kids to and from school/sport or any other activities. If I had your permission, I would love to take them to the zoo, park, bowling, etc to keep them entertained and happy. I completely understand if you would prefer to meet me before agreeing to any work and am happy to do so. Can’t wait to hear from you :)

I am currently studying a Bachelor of Health Science degree, with one class left to complete before I graduate. I also work casually as a support worker and therapy assistant for children. As such, am looking to pickup some extra hours on the side (a maximum of 10hrs per week). Casual babysitting requests are preferred as my current schedule changes on a weekly basis, so I prefer to not 'lock in' regular hours until my schedule becomes more stable. Perhaps you have a date night planned or an event to attend - just pop me a message and I would be happy to discuss further :) My other relevant experience includes babysitting and working in childcare (ages 6 months-5yrs). I really enjoy working with children and seeing them learn and grow as individuals.
