Hi! I’m Zia, a nursing student with a real passion for caring for others—especially kids. I’ve had the chance to work closely with two wonderful families, helping with everything from school runs and playtime to meals and bedtime routines. Those experiences taught me how important it is to create a safe, nurturing environment where children feel comfortable and supported. With my background in nursing, I bring a calm, attentive, and health-conscious approach to caregiving. I’m someone who truly enjoys being part of a child’s day and making life a little easier for parents too.
Experienced with children of different age, I am offering weekly babysitting :)
Hi! My name is Adriana. I am 23 years old, and I am currently a student at UNSW in Sydney. I want to do babysitting because I love being around children; I enjoy their positivity, energy, and endless creativity. Coming from a family of six, I have two siblings who are 10 years younger than me. Since they were born, I have been like their second mom. I looked after them alone, feeding them, taking them to bed, and so on. On top of that, during high school, I ran art classes for children in primary school and worked as a coordinator in children's summer camps during several summer holidays. I believe that I have learned over those years how to talk and act around children and also how to earn their trust. I can offer a few hours of babysitting once per week regularly, and we could also arrange some one-time sessions when needed. I live in Haymarket, so I would prefer locations close to 2000, Sydney. I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Since I was in grade 6 I started looking after my brothers and sisters. As I love being with children I planned to study childcare and now currently I’m running through diploma of early childhood education and care. Now I’m working as a childcare educator more than a years. It was very nice experience for me. I learned to deal with different features of children. I learned about how children think how they grow up.

Hi there!
My name is Sandhya Rai and currently I am kiving in. Auburn. As, I mentioned earlier I am really fond of babies so taking care of baby is not a work for me , it’s just earning pocket money for yourself while u r enjoying what u r doing and u r good at. So, I can make sure that after my job is done your babies stick to me like a glue and doesn’t want me to leave . (haha; my apologies) I am sure of a great care taker and moreover to that, I can take care of your room too. I am good at cleaning and doing other small household chores.
Thabk you.

I have taken care of my baby brother from day one since he were born. I was so excited and so happy to meet him. I take care of him like noone else. I changed his diaper, feed him, change his clothes, carry him around and when he became bigger around 1 nad half years of age he started to talk with me which even more grew love and fond of him in me. I played with him, spent time together, feed him, went to play with him outside.
