Meet Melodie: A nanny and babysitter in Yokine, WA

Hi all, I am 21 years old from the United Kingdom here in Perth on a working holiday with my boyfriend Theo. I have worked with children and families for the last 18months as a photographer working with all ages of ranging from newborns all the way up to great grandparents.

I also have extensive experience of babysitting my younger siblings and cousins. I have mostly babysat my aunties children from newborns as she had triplets in April 2020 just after we went into lockdown so I became part of her household bubble to help take care of the three new arrivals. I did both the day shift and the night shift with the boys as well as helping out with the older two children who at the time were 4 and 6 by keeping them occupied and making food. Up until I left the UK I would regularly have the kids (who are now 4.5) at their home and for days out with my friends little girl who is 16 months old, as well as their older brother and sister who now are 9 and 10.
