I am currently a year 11 student at a private girls college. I am fluent in English and can speak simple Italian.

CHILD EXPERIENCE: I have 10 nieces and nephews, aged 3-12 that I have spent lots of time with, and love being around. I am great at following instructions and am happy with cooking, cleaning, entertaining, or doing whatever you and/or your child requires. I have had my learners for over a year now and am able to pick up kids from school or kindergarten if needed. (My mother or father will be supervising me for the drive). Tutoring - I can tutor reading, writing and maths, as well as flute lessons for an extra fee.

ANIMAL EXPERIENCE: I have been around all kinds of animals and have helped in their training, specialised care and everyday needs. I have had a dog and a bird of my own previously, who were the light of my life; them not being around anymore makes me cherish every moment I have with other animals. I have worked particularly with young puppies up to much older dogs, and understand the responsibilities of caring for each individual animal. When it comes to pet walking, I’m super flexible. As for pet sitting, I prefer having animals at my own home, unless I’m only doing check-ins and/or feeding. I am super organised and love a tidy space, so I’m more than happy to clean up your pet’s litter box, bedding/cage, toys, etc. aswell.

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

Warm, Reliable Carer for Kids and Pets.

I'm a reliable, trustworthy, and caring individual who takes pride in creating a safe and positive environment for children and genuinely enjoy engaging with kids through fun age-appropriate activities, while also supporting routines. I understand the importance of clear communication with parents and always aim to be dependable and respectful of each family's needs, helping out wherever I can. I strive to stay organized and am able to stay calm in different situations, whether it's helping kids calm down, preparing simple meals, cleaning around the house, or keeping kids entertained. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident leaving their children in safe hands. I'm calm, patient, and proactive, making sure children are not only supervised but genuinely engaged. I'm comfortable following established routines, from meals to bedtime, and I'm happy to assist with household tasks throughout the day.

Caring, Reliable Dog Lover Who Treats Every Pet Like Family

Hi! I’m a 15-year-old dog lover who truly believes dogs are family, not just pets. I have experience caring for dogs, and every dog I’ve looked after has loved being around me. I also have a family who loves animals, so your dog will be in safe and caring hands.

I have a friendly 6-year-old male Cavoodle, Coco. Sadly, my other Cavoodle passed away in a car accident, and since Coco lost his best friend, he would love the chance to make new furry friends now that he’s an only dog. Before she passed, she had 9 puppies that we lovingly cared for and raised, making sure they were happy, healthy, and well looked after. I understand how special dogs are and will treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own.

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Valentine's Day Babysitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a Valentine's Day babysitter so you can enjoy a romantic evening while knowing your kids are in safe hands.

1. Book early

Valentine’s Day is a high-demand night for babysitters, so secure someone well in advance.

2. Expect holiday rates

Babysitters often charge extra for special occasions, so budget for a premium.

3. Choose someone trusted

Go with a sitter your kids already know, or someone with strong references if it’s their first time.

4. Confirm late-night availability

Make sure the sitter is comfortable staying until your return, even if it’s late.

5. Share bedtime routines

Provide clear instructions for dinner, storytime, and bedtime so the evening runs smoothly.

6. Leave fun activities

Stock up on games, crafts, or a movie to keep the kids entertained while you’re out.

7. Plan a simple dinner for kids

Prepare or order something easy the babysitter can serve without stress.

8. Leave emergency contacts

Give them your number, backup contacts, and any medical details they might need.

9. Set house rules

Be clear on snacks, screen time, and bedtime flexibility.

10. Show appreciation

Since they’re working on a date night, consider a bonus, chocolates, or a thank-you note.

See our parents' guide to Valentine's Day babysitting for more detailed information.
