Nannies in Eastern Middle Melbourne, VIC

Hi everyone! I bring four years of experience as a babysitter/housekeeper, working with children from 11months to 15 year of age. I have a car, first aid certificate, WWCC, parent references... I am confident in my abilities to contribute to happy and healthy kids. I use a gentle approach that builds trust and playfulness in kids, which I think is an important factor when keeping kids safe and explorative. I am responsible, I seek to build a trusted and healthy environment in families I work with, and have honed these skills in over the years. I work with children of all ages, my experience over the years has helped me be confident in establishing good relationships with the family, and being a helpful addition to a family life :) My key strengths include communicating effectively with parents, being reliable and honest, having a cheerful disposition. I've worked in other sectors such as support work, hospitality, retail and customer service, and with my previous 3 year experience studying healthcare (ie. dentistry), I have a history of being caring and responsible, in particular I hope to ensure that the kids are well cared for. Please conider my application to work with your family. I would love to know more and I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to work with closely with the family. Depite being a full time student, I will have a near full-time availability opening up in 2025 due to my study being online :). I enjoy healthy meals and keeping the space tidy. I like to be a well-rounded person and believe in keeping kids busy with outdoor play, toys, arts and craft over TV ideally. I love art, creative activities, keeping active, going to the park. Warm regards, Sarah ("Diva")

Born in Melbourne and where I lived for the first 3 years of my life. I relocated to the UK (I have dual citizenship) where I successfully completed school, and subsequently obtained a degree in English from the University of Sussex. I will be permanently relocating to Melbourne at the end of Jan 2025. Since graduating, I have had experience working with children aged 4-11 in a school as a teaching assistant (DBS checked = British equivalent of WWCC). During my time at the school, I was responsible for providing one-on-one support for children with special educational needs and disabilities, led small group interventions which covered all curriculum areas, completed a course focusing on supporting the emotional wellbeing of the children and independently ran sessions for those who needed access to social and emotional support, occasionally covered for class teacher and assisted with lesson planning. I would love to become an Au Pair/Nanny, as I take great joy in helping children learn, grow and explore the world around them. I would hugely benefit from the experience, as it offers the valuable and unique opportunity to expand my life experiences. The chance to become an extended part of a family, whilst providing support with childcare and household tasks is appealing to me as I want to be able to contribute to the daily lives of a family and create a special bond.I would be a reliable, trustworthy and patient Au Pair with a sense of humour, and would ensure to respect all family boundaries. I can also offer any additional tutoring in any subject.

I'm 30 years old with over a decade of casual and industry experience. I'm looking for casual or permanent part-time positions. I encourage healthy eating and physical play as a good foundation for happy kids, and am a strong advocate for free range outdoor exploration. I have my full drivers license, an Employment Working With Children Check, and first aid qualifications including CPR, asthma and anaphylaxis. I have a Diploma of Early Childhood Education and I currently work permanent part-time Monday, Tuesday and Thursday in an early learning centre. My rates are $30 an hour, with overnight sitting $35. Caring for toddlers is the bulk of my experience, but I have looked after children of all ages, including newborns and teens. Please note that whilst I have previously done school drop-off/pick-up only jobs, they're not my preference. I enjoy actively engaging with children and planning engaging experiences. I have experience working with large families (5 or more children), children with autism, and chronically ill children. I am fully vaccinated against Covid-19. I'm looking for part-time positions, casual babysitting, and night nanny roles. LGBTQIA+ friendly

I just love to see their eyes lit up in excitement of understanding! I'm looking after a 4yo girl atm for a year. I was a tutor/nanny for 8yo & 4yo boys till their mum lost a job, unfortunately. I've looked after 8 months old girl & 3 year old boy. I was part of a family with 3 children for 4 yrs. Now they are 13, 9 and 5yo. The youngest was a baby when I've started, at 4yo she learned to write and read, the 9yo is doing exceptionally well at school and the oldest got well tuitored by me for the high school.

All the references are available. I love to get "tuned to each child" specifically. I make up a bag of "goodies" for each child filled it with the developmental activities and they love to do or books they love to read. I am quite knowledgeable in kids behavior and sicknesses as I've researched a lot over the years and had so much experience that I can feel what each child needs. I worked as a teacher at the after-school for gifted children called Edworks, preparing them for a scholarships. I've helped to diagnose a hearing problem 2yo Alex had, no parent or their GP had noticed before. The boy since got grommets put in and can hear so I was able to develop his speech!

I am also teaching kids after hours to help with scholarship preparation and improve marks at school. I'm looking after two kids atm, 5yo in prep and 7yo year 2 in one family. I am a very energetic, enthusiastic, musical & creative person, non-smoker with a perfect driving record (rating 1 for the last 28 years) & I have my own reliable car with a child sit, just in case). I have experience in looking after the newborns, toddlers and school age children & I absolutely love looking after kids of all ages as every age has its own rewards.

Reference form Miranda, mother of 2.8yo girl from Glen Iris ( ph number can be supplied) : "I would be pleased to recommend our nanny, Marina, to any family. Marina is reliable and conscientious, caring and creative. She is also incredibly interested in, and focused on, child development, and gears all her time with our daughter, towards extending her skills and language. I find that I am learning from Marina constantly, and then refining how I play with my own daughter, to help her learn and grow." Reference from Julia, mother of 1yo and 2.5yo from Hampton ( ph number can be supplied): " Marina worked with our family for 9 months, since my baby boy was just 4 months old. She has been a tremendous help with both my baby and my toddler. Marina is extremely dedicated and passionate about children. She believes in learning through play and this has been fantastic for both my children. Marina is very trustworthy and always puts safely first. Coming form a very strong professional background, she is very innovative & has a lot to offer both children and parents! In my opinion, nannies don't come better than this!

Hi, I’m Mimi, 28 years old from the UK! I previously qualified as a Chartered Legal Executive Lawyer and worked in law for 6.5 years before transitioning to Marketing & Media Production, where I spent a year working before deciding to quit my job to travel the world! I am now a Qualified Hypnotherapist & Rapid Transformational Therapist with a special interest in childcare and childcare development. I previously worked as an au pair for 3.5 months and also took on ad-hoc nannying/babysitting and dog sitting work whilst working in hospitality/the hotel industry. I am currently looking for part-time nannying or babysitting to work around my current full-time position as a Guest Services Agent at a 5* hotel (my schedule will be flexible in the coming weeks once I am fully trained). I am also working on my own business and freelance writing in my spare time. Prior to this, my previous childcare experience involved after my 4-year-old niece during the pandemic (during which time I moved in with my sister for 6 months). This involved helping her get ready in the mornings, have breakfast, help her with her school work, playing games and spending quality time with her while my sister was working. I also volunteered as an English & Maths tutor for an Italian family whilst staying in Thailand (April 2023) and also recently volunteered at a school in Thailand for 3 weeks as a teacher (November 2023).

Do you realise how hard it is to write about yourself, to be able to say what you want about yourself so that you as a parent feel comfortable to contact me as a perspective nanny? I have been working in child care since Dec '89, I've worked both in long day care (mainly in the kinder room, 3-5yr olds) and as a Nanny I worked with ages ranging from newborns to a 15yr old (she now is 37yr old - yikes !!) I'd really like to go back to working with a family with a newborn (or newly born) so in 2016 I went back to study and did a Newborn Specialist Course to keep my skills updated While working in long day care I've also had the privilege of looking after a few children with disabilities. I have my Certificate III & Diploma in Children's Services, Newborn Specialist Course, First Aid & CPR and Working with Children Check (WWCC) - and I'm sure there is something I've forgotten !! Out of work hours I enjoy reading and making things, I'm very a very crafty person, just wait till you see and eat my gingerbread creations at Christmas time. Oh yes and I'm very organised and a bit of a neat freak.

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: For the school holiday period 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 required before school help from 7:30am till 10am, but now only casually for the holidays. 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/walking 3. Cooking/meal prep 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. I can’t wait to hear from you :)
