Meet Ivy: A nanny and babysitter in Roseville, NSW

Hi, my name is Ivy! I’m 19 years old, currently studying a Bachelor of Arts at the Australian National University, majoring in International Relations and minoring in Criminology. I completed my Higher School Certificate at Wenona Girls School where I studied Legal Studies, Chinese, Food Technology, Standard Maths, and Advanced English. I participated in Touch Football and Soccer at High School, while also playing Soccer for Northbridge FC.

I was born in Canada and have lived in New York, Hong Kong, and now Sydney. I’ve been learning Chinese my whole life and am currently studying it at University.

I did Surf-Life Saving at Warriewood SLSC for 2 years where I received my Bronze Medallion with my First Aid and CPR Certificate and was awarded Rescue of the Year in 2022.

I have 2 dogs and 2 younger sisters (15 and 16). I have babysitting and nannying experience with families with 2-5 kids, with ranging ages between 2 months old and 10 years old. I am kind, patient, energetic and creative. I am very reliable, proactive and good at adapting to routines. In my previous babysitting/nannying jobs, I was tasked with walking and picking the kids up from school, entertaining them, bedtime routine, house cleaning (folding laundry, cleaning dishes, wiping down surfaces and vacuuming), while also taking care of walking and feeding dogs.

I also have my Provisional P1 Licence (Red P’s) and I’m happy for my hourly rate to range between $27-$32 (open for discussion).

I am currently studying for my Final University Exams and don’t finish until 5 November. Therefore, I am not able to start working until early/middle of November.

Please let me know if this works for you :)
