Over 15 years experience & 2 children of my own

I am a childcare professional with over 15 years experience in varied roles ranging from long day care to private nannying. I took a step away from childcare in 2016 and have been raising my own 2 children for the past 7 years.. I am now looking to return to casual/part time work to assist families juggle life with kids - I understand first hand how challenging it can be!

I have worked in many roles prior to becoming a stay at home parent including long day care, private nannying roles, operating my own contract babysitting business as well as managing the Daydream Island kids club prior to returning home to Tassie in 2014. I have excellent references available upon request.

My availability is somewhat flexible and I am able to care for children in my home or yours. Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions whatsoever or to discuss your families specific needs

Thanks so much :)
