💕 Loving & Caring Babysitter | Babies & Toddlers | Available on Weekends

Hi lovely families! 👋💕

My name is Lily, I’m 21 years old and originally from Thailand. I’m currently living in Christchurch, studying English and working part-time.

I’ve always had a special love for babies and young children! 🥹 I’ve helped care for a baby in my family since birth, and it was such a lovely experience. I genuinely enjoy spending time with little ones, playing with them, making them smile, comforting them, and watching them grow and discover new things.

I’m a gentle, patient, responsible, and caring person. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, loved, and happy. I would always treat your little ones with the same love and care I’d give to my own family. ❤️

A little more about me! I previously worked as a chef at a five-star hotel in Thailand, so I love cooking and would be happy to help prepare meals for your children too!

One of my biggest dreams is to become an Au Pair in the USA, as I truly enjoy being around children and would love to gain more childcare experience.

I’m looking for weekend babysitting or part-time nanny opportunities, and I’m flexible with hours once we’ve agreed on a schedule.

I’d love the chance to meet your family, get to know your little ones, and hopefully become someone you can trust and feel comfortable leaving your children with.

Thank you for visiting my profile! I hope to hear from you soon! 🧸💕

Hi! My name is Lily, and I’m 21 years old from Thailand. I’m currently studying English in Christchurch, New Zealand.

I’ve helped care for my niece/nephew since they were a newborn, which gave me hands-on experience with young children. I absolutely love spending time with babies and toddlers, and I enjoy making them feel safe, happy, and loved. 💕

Before coming to New Zealand, I worked as a chef at Sofitel Bangkok Sukhumvit, a five-star hotel in Thailand. This experience taught me responsibility, patience, good hygiene practices, and how to prepare meals carefully.

I’m a gentle, caring, patient, and responsible person. I love cooking, spending time outdoors, and helping children learn through play.

My dream is to become an Au Pair in the USA, and I’m excited to continue learning and gaining more childcare experience.

I’m mainly looking for weekend babysitting or part-time nanny opportunities in Christchurch, and I’m flexible with hours once a regular schedule is agreed.

I would love to become someone your family can trust to help care for your little ones! 😊💕

Activity summary

Nursing student with a love for pets and walking.

Hi! My name is Liam, and I absolutely love animals — especially dogs! I’m also a nursing student, so caring for others, whether it's people or pets, is something that comes naturally to me. Although my schedule can be a bit unpredictable, I always make time for what I love most — helping others and caring for animals and kids alike.

I grew up on a farm, so I have plenty of experience with all sorts of dogs and animals, as well as caring for younger children in different settings. I’ve spent a lot of time walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. The same goes for kids — I’m patient, understanding, and always focused on making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for.

Whether it's a quick walk around the block, some playtime in the park, hanging out and keeping your pet company while you're away, or babysitting your little ones, I’m committed to making sure everyone feels loved and well taken care of. For safety, I only accept pets that are fully vaccinated and leash-trained, and I’m happy to follow any routines or guidelines you have for your children.

If you’re looking for someone dependable and compassionate who will treat your pets and kids like family, I would be honored to help!
