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.

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.
Hi, I am an empathetic, caring, and patient individual who is fluent in both English and Korean. With a background in working in healthcare, I bring a thoughtful, nurturing approach to childcare. I can prepare meals and create a comforting, supportive environment for children. Having recently graduated from university, I'm taking time off to refresh and rest before starting my own family. My goal is to nurture and support children’s growth and well-being in the future.
Welcome to a place full of laughter, wagging tails, and happy kids! This page is all about fun, friendship, and the joy pets bring into our lives. Come say hi and enjoy the cuteness!
I can travel to surrounding suburbs/towns of Blacktown for work.

I have grown up around animals and have hands-on experience caring for pets, including feeding, cleaning, and spending time with them. I have also looked after my baby cousins and children of family friends, as well as helping support children with additional needs. These experiences have helped me develop a genuine passion for caring for both kids and animals. I am patient, responsible, and committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and positive environment.
