I am currently in Grade 11 at Ryde Secondary College, I have been a scout since I was 11 years old which has given me extensive knowledge in safety and first aid, as a part of this I have also obtained a first aid certificate and thorough first aid experience. I have been working at part time jobs since the age of 14, when I first worked with kids at birthday parties and school holiday programs, after a year and a half I left that job to work at Grill'd Burgers which provided me with more customer service skills, after leaving that job, I currently work at a different birthday party business where I teach children in gymnastics during their parties.
I also have experience babysitting many children from families in the local area.
My name is Edit, I’m originally from Romania but I’m also a Hungarian citizen, with over ten years of childcare experience. I moved to Sydney a year ago to study early childhood education and care and I currently work in a childcare center on a casual basis. I have experience also as a night nanny and along the years I cared for newborns, twins, children with special needs. I’m also comfortable with animals, so if you have pets it’s no problem at all. I’m an optimistic and happy, bubbly person, but when needed I can be also firm. I love taking kids to the park or outings, love reading stories for them and make crafts with them.
I’d be happy to meet new families for occasional or regular babysitting/nannying.
Thank you for visiting my profile and I’m looking forward to work with you.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Kensington for work.

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.
