Fun and bubbly 19 year old looking for part time nannying work :)
| Hi my name is Charlotte and I live in Sydney, where I have had a fixed role taking care of three babysitting families and many other casual roles taking care of children aged 4 to 12 years old. I am currently studying a Bachelor of Nursing at UTS, and I am looking to get back into a fixed babysitting/nannying role on a part-time basis. Friends and family describe me as a committed and friendly person, with a strong work ethic and caring personality.

Reliable, Caring, Energetic Babysitter.
| Hello, I have recently moved to Canberra where I am studying a double degree, Bachelor of Public Policy / Bachelor of Medical Science, at ANU and I am looking for some babysitting work. I am a caring and passionate individual who loves to spend time with and encourage development in children of all ages. I am experienced in babysitting children, having babysat up to 6 children at once ranging in age from 4-12. I also have two younger siblings who have given me a lot of practice! Recently I have also gained experience in nannying for a family with two twins age 1 and an older child aged 3 who I cared for from 9-5 once a week and other times when needed. I think that children are an absolute joy and personally find that there is nothing better than forming a bond with someone who has so much to experience and watch them grow and develop. I am open to engaging in a range of activities such as going for walks, reading books, playing with toys, little excursions to the park or the pool, baking, colouring etc. I would love to get to know you and your family and would be happy to answer any questions you have for me. Thank you for your consideration, Kealy
