Welcome message:

Introduction: I am a university student who is really excited to be tutoring and taking care of children for Preps to Year 6 and joining them with their journey to an positive attitude with education. Dedicated and experienced babysitter seeking to provide exceptional childcare services to families in need. Possessing a nurturing and caring demeanour, with a passion for ensuring the safety and well-being of children.

Purpose of Baby Sitting: The purpose of my babysitting services is rooted in providing exceptional care and support to families in need. With a nurturing attitude and genuine passion for children's well-being, I aim to create a safe and engaging environment where children can thrive in their parents' absence. My primary goal is to ensure the safety and security of the children under my care while fostering their growth and development through age-appropriate activities and interactions. By maintaining open communication with parents and adhering to their instructions and preferences, I strive to build trust and confidence in my abilities as a responsible caregiver. Ultimately, my purpose in babysitting is to provide parents with peace of mind, knowing that their children are in capable hands, while offering children a fun and enriching experience during their time with me.

Hi parents! I'm Bek, and I've been working with kids in various settings for years, but am now looking at getting into part-time nannying as I absolutely adore my time with babies and children

I love to bake, read, and do lots of craft. I'm also a very musical person. I'd be very comfortable taking your kid/s out of the house, to parks and libraries etc. As well as other fun adventures like the zoo, indoor play centres, etc. I'm even happy to take them to weekly things such as playgroup, music classes, etc

I'm very flexible with my hours, but would prefer to organise set times every week with the right family.

I currently lead a Playgroup 2 mornings a week, with kids aged anywhere from 1 - 6 years old. I have done a fair bit of casual babysitting with kids of similar ages

I have volunteered in youth (ages 8-18) musical theatre productions, both as a chaperone and well being coordinator.

I've got experience with neurodivergent kids, and medically complex kids as well.

I've got up with dogs, and am very confident caring for pets. I can either stay overnight at your place to pet sit, or just drop in during the day to feed and play with your pet. Happy to tale dogs on walks as long as half an hour

I am fully vaccinated, including a yearly flu shot.

I do have my drivers license and own car (toyota yaris), but I am still on my P's

My skills and interests:

  • Music
  • Singing
  • Dance
  • Reading / storytelling
  • Drawing / painting
  • Arts / crafts
  • Cooking

Welcome message:

Hi! im sophia, a 16-year-old student with a bubbly personality and a real love for kids. I’m the kind of person who enjoys making sure everyone around me is having a good time—whether it’s playing games, helping with homework, or just being a fun, caring presence. I’m really comfortable around kids of all ages, and I love finding ways to keep them entertained while also making sure they’re safe and well-cared for.

I’m also great with pets! If you have animals, I’m happy to take care of them too, whether it’s feeding, walking, or just giving them some love and attention.

On top of babysitting, I can help with cleaning around the house and even cook meals if needed. You can count on me to be reliable, responsible, and to create a positive environment for your kids.

Looking forward to meeting you and your little ones

Welcome message:

Here to help support families that need assistance. I’m 18 and just finished school. I’m going to university in February and would love to use my kindness and support to families who need help.

I’ve done past babysitting for family members with kids as young as new borns to 6 year olds.

I’m happy to play, cook meals, bath them, change nappies and clean around the house.

I’m happy for any questions you may have about this to contact me.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Vacation Babysitter

Follow these handy tips when hiring a vacation babysitter so everyone can get the most out of your family holiday.

1. Start your search early

Traveling babysitters are in high demand, so begin looking several months before your trip.

2. Choose someone with travel experience

Ask if they’ve traveled with families before and are comfortable with airports, hotels, and long days.

3. Check passports and paperwork

Ensure the babysitter has a valid passport, visas (if needed), and is comfortable with any travel requirements.

4. Discuss schedules and expectations

Be clear about when you’ll need childcare versus family time, so boundaries are understood.

5. Cover all expenses upfront

Agree on who pays for flights, accommodations, meals, and any extras before the trip.

6. Set pay rates clearly

Holiday babysitting often involves long hours; discuss a fair daily or weekly rate plus overtime if needed.

7. Review responsibilities

Clarify whether the sitter will supervise only in the hotel/villa or accompany your children on excursions.

8. Do a trial run at home

Have the sitter spend time with your kids before the trip to build trust and routine familiarity.

9. Check adaptability

Make sure they’re flexible with changes, new environments, and possible travel hiccups.

10. Trust and comfort are key

Since you’ll be spending extended time together, choose someone you not only trust with your children but also feel comfortable traveling with.

See our parents' guide to vacation babysitting for more detailed information.
